Post by: bobplum on April 07, 2011, 10:13:16 pm

does anyone use them for cleaning
if so how long can it be,im assuming they narrow to a fine point for fishing purposes,so what meterage can you get from them
i have a brodex,6 section and im finding it a struggle to be honest so want to go to something lighter and cheaper
cheers bob

i slid a few of the thinner bits inside the last section and glued them in to make it stronger.   used a Wagtail pole cap as the end fitting.  i have had mine almost 3 years now and use it for trad only with a wagtail mop/squeegee .
