  13. Theres a 9wt Airflo Predator Kit for £69.99 on the Fishtech website,would literally get you fishing straight out of the box.Airflos are good rods for the money,I was gifted a 6/7wt years ago,its not bad at all.

  16. Will fluorocarbon stand up to a pikes teeth Lee?
  17. Think you can buy a pike fly kit for under a tonne all in.Make sure you use a wire trace and a tapered leader to help with turnover as the flies are massive.Wouldnt mind a do myself but theres far to many dog walkers/kids round here making the back cast a bit dangerous lol Line wise I wouldn't go below 12lb,more if its snaggy,think the rods are 10wts.Im sure there will be someone more qualified to help you on here ,but its a startingpoint lol Btw it was probably Ladybower Resevoir you fished atb Dave
