I picked up one of these from a vintage tools stall in a market in Cambridgeshire a few years ago. Solid iron, weighs a ton but does the job when I can bother carrying it! Had to admit, I thought it was for a pole. The stall holder had no idea what it was and it cost me £1!Mole-Patrol wrote: ↑Sun Feb 21, 2021 6:51 pm This type of rod rest is still sold in French tackle shops and supermarkets. I have only seen a few being used on the bank, except for one particular water where just about every angler was using one per rod.
