      Thanks G.  @AdamC I looked into paddle boards for the last couple of years for my wife and have gotten nowhere.  Any recommendations or tips?  Is it just one of those things you go someplace and try as many boards as possible?

      Appreciate any help!

        @goosehd I spent a long while looking myself and was close to pulling the trigger on one I had seen on a discount site.  Luckily one of my friends does SUP competitively along with other watersports and he pointed me in the direction of the Aquatone which he said for the cost vs performance and longevity is one of the best on the market:

        https://aquatone.com/products/details.html?id=1

        Above is the one my wife has, the 10 foot one and I have the 10 foot 6" yellow one.  I have only had it for one season but I used it a lot and couldn't be happier with it!

        I am sure there would be water sport centres where you can try them but the problem is, there are so many on the Market and some are very expensive.

        I would definitely happily recommend the Aquatone if you are looking to SUP casually in calm waters!

          I was sent this lure by a forum member.  Got to get out and try it ASAP.  Thank you so much….

              is the Rapala brand as big in the UK as it is here? Any fishing section in the U.S. is dominated by Rapala crank baits.

                                          The problem with the previous set up is that I had to slide the rods in and out and the rings would get caught on the gut, and there was not enough room front or rear for the really long rods without inserting them at an angle then all the other rods got hit.

                                          These (Bike hooks) and just lift and drop….
