I think he's just keeping an eye on you in case you shag his missus.

I dont think i could join a club with water named Starmers

I loved their original 1..75 Neoteric rods, but i've been disappointed in the direction they have chose since.

I bought the package Jamie and sold the reel cheap. it was good for the buyer and myself, so reduces the price and enabled the buyer to buy the reel cheaper. Both benefit.

I bought one last season and ive only used it twice and very impressed with it. For the price i would advocate buying one.

Thanks Nick. I think i might leave it as it is, because knowing me i'l end up breaking it. Thanks again.

Its sound a bit too complicated Haydn, but thanks for your input anyway. It sounds like its best left alone.

This is in the position that is working correctly and i would like to reverse it.

I have Rob but the pawl doesnt engage the cog properly for some reason. Ive ordered a new pawl to see how that goes.

Thanks Haydn, thats how my pawl is sat. On fly reels you can turn the pawl around so the ratchet is stronger with line going out, so i thought it would be possible to do the same with the Speedia. Thanks again.

Sorry, thats what i meant the pawl/pin. Ive turned it around but its not engaging unfortunately. I'll buy a new pawl if any one can recommend some where to buy one from? Thanks

Ive just purchased a lovely conditioned Speedia which seems to have had the ratchet set for right hand retrieve, but when i turn the pin over it doesnt engage the cog properly. Is this normal for the Speedia as there is no signs of wear on the ratchet pin.? Thanks Dave

Thanks Alan much appreciated.

Looks great Alan 👍. Out of interest, do you use your narrow Speedia for barbel? If so, how do you find it? Thanks.

The Wear fish are just below Durham with Ban the Bomb pool being a favourite for them. I fish the Tees for them at Bowl Hole and take a few out each season and it gives me more satisfaction than catching Swale or Nidd fish. Problem is, its a bit of a hike for me now so i fish the Swale more...

The EA did stock 1600 barbel some five years back i seem to remember, and i thought DBTA were involved. Maybe i read it on DBTA web site and got mixed up?

As far as i'm aware Chris, barbel are not indigenous to the Tees and It also receives stockings of barbel by clubs, one being Darlington Brown Trout.

Thanks for that Alan:)

Yes it locks into position enough to keep it stable in the casting position. Ive used mine four times and it does hold its position without any problem at least when i hooked a a carp of about 8lbs, it showed no signs of moving at all. I love this reel and ive took to it more than any other reel...

I was referring thats where Korum may get there ideas from, not just this particular item. The Chinese come up with all sorts of weird things.
