Re: "The Dorset"
Is it the one with Purple (ish) whipping loop?
If so I think that was from a member on here.
Great rod for chub/barbel and Carp.

Chance is always powerful. Let your hook be always cast; in the pool where you least expect it, there will be a fish

Great rod loop, sure you will enjoy it very much. :thumb:
I've had Carp to just over 18lbs on mine and also used it for small fish as well, very versatile rod indeed.

Well while I have used this rod to catch roach/perch so on, I wouldn’t recommend holding it all day as it can get a bit heavy, not really what you would call a trotting rod. :chuckle:

Re: "The Dorset"
I just won a second Dorset of eBay, looks a lot different to my Dorset as I think it's a much later version but for £39 I can't grumble...unless its a dog of course! :think:
