BrianBM Posted April 23, 2018 Report Share Posted April 23, 2018 It occurs to me to wonder what would happen if you could fill a rod with helium. Assuming a rod butt cap that doesn't let the helium escape, would the rod follow you around on a string, floating in mid-air? Hydrogen might be better, but it's notoriously hard to keep confined. You might need the weight of a reel to keep the rod from floating upward, and escaping you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
