Next time out i was thinking of taking take two set ups. The vipor 6wf is going to have the floating line rig on it.
The Greys is going to be rigged up with intermediate.
Not tried this angle but i suppose its easier than swopping over all of the time.

definately easier Mick mate, few of my mates take 2 rods, pull 1 in cast the other straight out,as you say it saves changing reels or spools over
In my experience carrying 2 is ok, but only one can be used a ta time, which seems a bit obvious, certainly thems the rules on the wear up here
You could be right there jimmy and skipper
I'm trying to travel light these days. Left me fleece in the car on Thursday as it would impede my ability to fall over rocks. Froze my tits off. Fleece will go back in the bag next time out.

You will find that many organisations will not allow two rods to be assembled at the same time on their water.
We, at North West Durham Angling Association (Waskerley) only allow one rod to be 'assembled' at a time. This is to prevent anglers casting a worm out on their bait rod and fly-fishing simultaneously.
I can see the point there drof.
I have seen people up at the Derwent with two rods. To fish both together you need two permits.
If you are only fishing with one its not an issue. Saying that the guys in charge know me up there.
Going to try it tomorrow really just to compare me old outfit with my new one. I don,t know why but the old outfit defo felt better. Think it was just the lightness of it all.
On the down side its more shi-- to lump around. And travelling light is a real bunus as i move around a lot now.
seen quite a few guys up sharpley with 2 rods BUT only fishing 1 rod at any given time, i think its just that if they are using say for instance floating line and fancy changing to sinking, its just a case of reeling in the floating, then cast out the sinking line.But i dont know if you would be allowed to fish 2 rods, but personally i dont think so.I think the 1 rod per licence applies only to rivers/streams but i could and probably am wrong
Unless things have changed this year the rod licence covers 2 rods ...certainly for course fishing and I am not aware of a difference for trout.(see last paragraph , I was wrong)
The carp guys can fish two rods but need a second licence for a third rod.
I have no doubt that individual venues have their own rules as to how many you can have set up but once again there is no EA rule saying you can not have half a dozen rods setup behind you, which is a very common practice when coarse fishing, particularly in matches.
How many rods does a rod licence entitle me to use?
A rod licence entitles you to fish with up to two rods and line at the same time for coarse fish and eels, but with only one rod and line for trout, sea trout, char and salmon. Always check club rules and local byelaws regarding the rod limit on the water you intend to fish.
Additional licences are required if you fish with more rods, where byelaws and rules permit.

Mostly you can have 2 rods assembled with reels attached, as long as the line on 1 rod is not passed through the eyes ready to fish, it just depends on the rules of the fishery. There is nothing better than having three spools for each reel , even if it's a rimfly, at least you can move around with not too much kit.

Dave,
I think the emphasis there, is on USING only 1 rod, but not how many you may actually have with you at any given time.It was told to me a few years ago by a mate who was/is a bailiff up at the river wansbeck that you were required to have 1 licence per rod.
