new rod rest

hey lads

looking for a new tripod as the one i have is to long for the car its a mustad just wondering what ya reckon the best one to get i was going to get a ian golds or shakespeare but not gone on the leg supports on the shakespeare and heard some dodgy stuff about ian golds
cheers in advance

Ian gold's are perfect for the beach, real sturdy and I cant fault them.

But the Shakespeare salt is more adaptable if off the rocks because of its telescopic legs so id go for that.

is that the tripod i bent with a kick down in clare one night

Dom, do a google for the Veals Pro Tripod. It's made by Craig Parker, worth every cent and lasts a lifetime. All made from aircraft aluminium, inclusive of stainless steel screws. Have mine since 3 years and can't fault it. Prices are recession proof too

Daiwa tripod, and is telescopic so no bother fitting in the car

I've been thinking about getting the first rest here on this page http://www.monsterfishing.co.uk/acatalo ... ipods.html

I've had my one of those for over 4 years and have had no problems with it. I bought mine here for 50 quid so it is probably as cheep to buy here compered to on line considering the exchange rate.

cheers lads for all the replies and the winner is
