This is it my Friends day four is upon me, I feel extremely confident of never smoking again.

Today is the day I would normally buy my smoke supply for the next four weeks and because I will not be buying them I can now afford to buy any rod I wish to have, HURRAY.It also means I can now afford to buy models again.

All your support has immensly helped me with my achievement.

Cheers Chris.
I will stick at it and with the money saved I could buy an ugly stick rod, one which I have been looking at.
 
Cracking result, stick with it......keep a wary eye out for the automatic reaction when you think it’s licked....

Everyone has been great and every comment has helped.
Two rods I have been having a good look at.
The first is a Daiwa Prorex s spinning rod.
The second is a Shakespeare Ugly Stik GX2 spinning rod.

means nothing to me! Drowning maggots was never one of my pastimes. I only ever fished in the Tropics, where bright lights hung over the side of your anchored ship attracted the fish at night. It wasn't a question of whether you would catch a fish, but if you could get in on deck before it was chomped by something bigger! King Klip & Tuna were welcome, often going from sea to frying pan in less than 20 mins! ( We'll skip over the moray eels, sea snakes, and other nameless horrors that were hooked! )
You Will Win

Nope, you lost me, my one foray into fishing was when an old neighbour and a couple of his mates took me when I was on leave, they were trout fishing. I soon got bored and wandered of and found an outlet pipe with all these fish around it, so off came the socks and shoes and in I waded and was soon tickling trout bellies and flicking them onto the bank. Then along came the warden and asked what I was doing - fishing, came the reply - you fish with a rod, said he, show me a bear with a fishing rod and I will buy one - confiscated all my b****y fish.....

Good going Ralph
I’m assuming it’s a nice rod, the only fishing I have ever done was after Mackerel with a long line with about 50 hooks on it. Eating them for weeks.

It is basically a light lure rod which I intend to use with fake baits.
Never done sea fishing but catching marine horrors sounds fun.
I will win.
 
Hi Ralph
You're doing so well and saving so much money you'll soon be able to afford something like this rather than just a rod :tongue-out3:

What a git nicking all your fish.
I will win.

I hope it is a nice rod I have bought it now :smiling3:.
To be honest I have never had a problem with Shakespeare rods the majority of rods that I have used have been Shakespeare including my first ever rod.
I will win.
