Definitely one of his own Rob - it's getting plenty of use....RBTraditional wrote:I am very humbled....Chris is using a RBTraditional rod rest.... although that one looks like one I made for Mr Wheat (the bounder!! ), maybe it was filmed before I sent him his own......glad he likes them!

Thanks Danny.
Great to take a peak into Mr Whites workshop.
I reckon Chilli will soon have a new catchphrase: "Light my Kelly!"

I noted that too, I don't use anything else since being gifted a pair recently, they are a wonder to behold and tough as old boots!!Barbulus wrote:Many thanks Danny. Very enjoyable link to watch. I thought I recognised the rod rest RB.
Wonderful footage by the way, really enjoyed it and to see 'Chilli' enthuse about simple methods and cane rods was delightful

While I was watching them fishing this river Stour I thought of the river in the stories in "How To Fish.

Yes, I believe it is. The pal who Chris bumps in to on the river in the book is Nigel Hudson, ie Fennel. And Jason is indeed the bailiff for that stretch.
