Yeah, imagaine this. Armed youself with these rods for carp fishing with luminous bite alarms, landing net, rod rest, bivvy might well sit under a floodlight for night fishing!!
Now before you all start to extract the P155 this might have another application.
Years ago I was looking for ideas for an illuminated quiver tip for night fishing, and I might require the idea again in future. It depends how thin they can get the material and is it hollow? Are there any electronics inside?
Probably the rods they have designed would be gimmicks even in the US, but given a little UK redesign and application the principal could prove useful.
only go sea fishing, although i want to take up freshwater just cant afford it at the moment.
i do relise that a rod that lights up when you get a bite well be flashing constantly on a beach, but as i fish near to a night club on southsea it wont look out of place.
