Terry..I know all about this type as well, my next door neighbor comes from China and he also uses this method, and has several rods that are telescopic, up to 15 meters=45'..now that is long in any man's language [or Ladies]..he was telling me his heaviest fish weighed was over 35 kilos, just X2 on that=75lbs. I saw the video on this as well, I am waiting for one as I write this, however it will be a 'Chinese' rod that i'll be getting.
Jayhad..I'm from the Island m8, and when i started to fish there , i got 'stoned' cause no one even saw this method before, but the main reason I got stoned was the fact that i was out fishing the locals 5 - 1..salmon or steelies. If there is a response to CP in this forum...why isn't there a notable sticky for it as there is for 'Spey fishing'..?
