Hello again,
I have a lovely Browning Sphere MGTi 930 reel for sale with three spare spools. Very good condition with minor marks from use. Nice light reel with magnesium body and carbon handle. Really good drag. Weighs just 277g with line on the spool.
These retailed at £199 when released...
Hello,
For sale is this pair of big pit reels in excellent condition.
Good drag and great cranking power.
Comes with two spare spools.
£50 posted for the pair.
Hello folks,
Surplus to requirements so going up for sale is this excellent bit of fish care equipment. Superb removable cushion that goes into zipped pocket when in transit. Sides are braced by two poles (think tent poles) that also fit in front pocket when not in use. Handles and comfy...

I was reading a comment of Dave Lumb's on P****'s P** (don't know if I can type the full name on another forum 🥸) and he said something along the lines of 2.25 will do you for everything you need. I don't have the experience to affirm or refute, but when a guy of his reputation says speaks up...
I'm sure @Chris Jones has said that this was a mistake by Browning and was referring to the Hot Rod silvers rod. My spliced tip Sphere will take 6lb line I reckon.
Hi Jonathan,
My Acolytes are more on the niche side of the range (11' Carp Waggler, 17' Acolyte, and 13' Acolyte Specimen). I've caught barbel on a Maver Signature Pro which is similar to an Acolyte plus. Shifting a barbel off the bottom was not an easy job with that rod! Ian has caught loads...
