why oh why do you make such GREAT rods mate!!!!


Went out and had a wee peek at the new Synit Rods, sheez, just couldn't help myself( had a case of the Boulder tass i think).
Couldn't walk outa the place without this little number-------------

It's a Synit 6-8kg 6ft6in 2pceGT-R   number

And a Rod as good as this deserves the best (in my humble opinion) so am marrying it up with this wee number.

A Trinidad12--ohboy what a combo
Now all i gotta do is find me some Stren braid and we's off to White Island in a couple of weeks to give them both a work out.LOL

I was out there Saturday and saw a stand of 'em in the corner of the workshop, damn near cried.Cry
One day, 6-8 two piece overhead with trigger grip. Even my Curado wants it.
No half measures!

A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.

I see another request for us to do a spiral wrap rod in GT-R. Spiral Wraps have been around for over 40yrs and aren't a new concept, they do assist those who have trouble with conventional overheads as they steady the wobble of the reel when pressure is applied by the fish but they can't be done to just any blank. The sprial twist rate needs to be worked out in accordance to the direction in which the rod blank was rolled, if you apply the guides in the wrong twist direction on the side of the blank or get the number of guides and spacing in the transition wrong the blank will be put under twist loading.
The guts of this is the blank action, spiral direction, the rate and length of twist needs to be matched and the current GT-R blanks have all been designed for either conventional Overhead or Spin, I am sure the GT-R blank would handle it but until we engineering a blank especially for sprial wrap I'm not going to risk producing a rod that looks good but dosen't function properly. Talking to a Norwegin rod builder who was making spiral wrap rods in his country many years ago, you need a minimum of 4 guides in the transition to get the action and loading distribution right, I showed him rods with 2 or 3 guides on the spiral which in his words, "zis is askin forz troubil at zum stage und you shouldn be pizzin round wiz shyt yuz knowz little aboutz, bezidz wez only developed it to makz it eszy forz personz whoz cant use a normil ozer head rodz uzerwiz all za rod manufacterz would haz made all zer ozer headz ziz wayLOLConfused"
