Not me, I'm a kayaker and we're not allowed to mix with fisherman.  We are the scurge of the river and frighten off the slamon with our little plastic boats :'(

I'm afraid I'm going to regret saying this but, I've done a bit of coarse fishing in my time. What's the question?  :-/

Well, i do hell of a lot on the river Lugg in Mordiford near Hereford.

Anyway, I use a carbon 13 foot rod, I have the chance of a 1962 cane rod, its in good condition, just needs some new eyes, Question is, have you had any expierience with cane rods.

Phew. Saw a massive p1ss take coming my way.  ::)

I could never see the attraction with vintage gear. If you like losing fish and tackle then I suppose it's OK but what's the point?

In my opinion, modern gear has been designed to make fishing easier. Rod tips are more responsive so bites are easier to see, actions are more progressive so that it's easier to keep the fish on and finally they are not prone to rotting and take little care.

The most skillful bit of fishing, in my opinion, is choosing and working the swim properly and getting the best possible bait presentation. Neither of these will be aided with a split cane rod.

If you would prefer a Morris Minor to a V6 CDX then I suppose a split cane rod and a centre pin reel are for you, otherwise I'd stick with your decent gear. They do look nice on the pub wall though (Fishing Rods, not Morris Minors).
