Just a cautionary note. I sent a rod via above recently at buyers request and we shared cost of around £45. I have now had a supplemental charge as he was an individual. Ringing a bell as I think I have had this before. So it wasn't 45 it was 50£.
Bear this in mind should you be getting quotes
Reminded if these. The box has never been out of the house. The catapult maybe used once when I decided too powerful for my needs. Happy to sell both if anyone interested. £20 including postage? I believe these go back to when dave voster was project dev man or some such at greys
Morning. I have been a fan of the current range of sportex rods( effectively cross weave) and tackle since I bought on ebay about 10 years ago a twin tip xclusive barbel 1.75 and 2.1/4. I also imported later a float and a feeder rod. I saw a new supersafe advertised in France so bought that...
I have a very nice 12ft barbel specialist. I did have an 11 which I sold . I rather regret that now but however I have read about an avon version. I presume this to be the 1.2 11ft but does anyone know if there was an actual defined avon?
Just wondering if anyone bought, has or used any of the must trumpeted new hardy marksman rods updates launched I think in 22. I was close to buying an avon but due to transit delays I went back to Roger for a peregrine. I always look to support new ventures, such as the new normark team. Sadly...
Just a quickie in case some have not noticed. There are 6 on ebay currently. They are in folkestone. Seen seller before. If it helps anyone perfectly happy to have a day out and collect and bring them back to mid Essex . Foc ofcourse. . I have only fished with the 2.75 but it was an exceptional...
I bought one of these new when they were launched and it cost north of 250. I loved the rod but decided a 3.3 would suit my fishing better so bought one of those too. I sold the 3.9 and later the 3.3 and l ways regretted it. You will see from the speccs they were special. I have read they were...
These are interesting rods for perhaps those who fish rivers. The CC bomb rods were launched around 2010 and priced around £100. It is 10' and cw up to 50g. An ultra light 2 piece rod with completely parabolic action, for small hooks and light hook lengths. I got the bomb in about 2018 new. I...
Bought this new, used once I know and liked it. Sold two rods so my favourite biomaster rear drags can but re distributed on my other rods this is no longer needed.l Can easily post obviously, UK only, thinking £70 ono including postage if anyone interested. . Not put on ebay as yet.
For reluctant sale my 11ft 1.75, with 4 oz spliced in tip. I understand the tip is done by harrisons. See photos. Used on the wye once when I was Roger's guest. It's a copy of his own personal build he described in a series on here, save he had torzites. My does not. I had it built for feisty...
Hi guys. Planning to offer for sale most of my rod collection. I plan to offer to travel for delivery/meet for free say 60 miles from home in mid Essex. Not sent anything long using couriers of late and agree with most comments I read. Has anyone used ebay lately and their own delivery service...
Pre Brexit I often purchsed fishing items in europe, Since then this has become prohibitively expensive.I have looked for a while for a Rive r design rod, sold by A/D for over £400 when current. I had seen one in a few tackle shops in France and Austria. I decided too expensive for me but always...
Had a notice yesterday stating that rules changing again relating to fees next month. I need to read again but seems to be going over the the auctioneering theme. Whereby the buyer pays a premium but one which is included in the price.. Whether this means both the seller will have a new fee...
Are any members planning to attend? Perhaps it would be an ideal opportunity for club member's to meet, support a good cause. Seems to start at/near Vauxhall tube station and easy to congregate somewhere near.
Hi all. Clearing out my "docs" I have come across this. I have been sending on request the earlier 2008 catalogue. I knew I also had a later one from Dave Coster's time with Hardy. If anyone wants a copy emailed, just pm me. It is the complete range of their products.
Does anyone know what ingredient( s) are used to transform paste/ground bait into squeeze ready?
I have been using proprietary paste for years and normally use different flavour liquids to suit my needs. Together with wheat germ it works well.
Both Fjuka and Spotted Finn offer various squeeze...
