Actually bud... they are known as whips because soldiers during and after the war used the radio aerials from Tanks to fish with and they are known as a "whip Ariel" and still called that today by modern armies... so a bit of fishing history there for you..👍🏼
Great video that has reminded me how to attach a rig to a whip. I bought a very expensive set of Italian whips but havent used them for at least 10 years. Local canal has been recently stocked with a lot of silver fish up to about a pound in weight. Cant wait to reacquaint myself with my whips. Thanks

Thanks for that. I was given a genuine tank aerial rod once but don't know what happened to it, which is a shame. Great bit of information - thank you
