Just when I thought I’d seen it all.

So can a piece of tape on the rod, and lay the rod on the surface over the drain run...but yours is more fun.

Yes, would have saved me hours of fun but the run goes under a couple of walls and under a road. It all gets a bit 3D above ground! It's also 75m to the discharge point into a stream but there's an inspection chamber about half way along. Fortunately it was blocked just over 2 rod kits away so managed to borrow the last couple of rods from next door. Interesting topic to me, as I have another run where the builders used a Y piece to turn a corner and just provided a rodding eye off one branch instead of an inspection cover. Is that permitted? Makes it hard to guess where the run is from above ground.

It clearly was, but should no have been.  

 

That is a lot of rods and resistance . Next time it might be worth hiring a flexi rod as it will be easier to push.  They are available with a transmitter and receiver, but at quite a cost.
