    Freezing ice on line

    I was beginning to get some ice in the top two guides on Monday morning, but it must have warmed up a touch as it was only an issue for about half an hour tops. I tried glycerine once a few years ago but can't remember if it worked or not 😄

    ** SOLD ** 12ft Harrison Torrix 2.25lb (Dave Lumb build)

    Hi Chaps, I listed this rod a year or so ago but pulled the plug because I lost my nerve. However, it really is now time to let this one go- it's far too good to be sitting in its bag and not landing big fish for someone. I have had this superb rod for just shy of two years after a swap with...

    Browning 13.6 river rod

    Fair play Danny, they are certainly a financial commitment. I would not have bought mine if I’d had to pay the full RRP for it a few years ago. Nothing wrong with your acolytes— enjoy! 😊

    New daiwa connoisseur rod

    The nice thing about the Conny range is that they’re not ball breakingly expensive.

    Browning 13.6 river rod

    Hi Danny, I’ve got a 13’ Acolyte Specimen and a 13’ 6” Sphere, so I can tell you how I experience them. I fish exclusively with centrepins if that makes any difference to how you construe my comments. The 13’ Acolyte Specimen is almost the same weight as the 13’ 6” Sphere (in my case both rods...

    Line lay Shimano DL

    I bought one of those reels a few years back and sent it straight back- line lay was all over the place.

    New rod.

    Hi Simon, I’ve just bought a used 11’ Free Spirit Barbel Tamer 1.5 for exactly this. Took it out immediately and landed a 9lb 4oz fish rolling meat. Unbelievably light and slim blank with single leg guides. Superb action but quick enough tip that it would probably work trotting a float if you...

    Drennan and Greys Prodigy Rod Holdalls plus Greys Prodigy tackle box

    Hi all, As part of an autumn tackle cull I am parting with the following stuff: 11' Torrix 2lb - this is the Rover II, Mark Tunley built rod with some beautiful features like wood inlay on the reel seat. It is in superb condition and comes in a high quality cloth rod bag - £175 collected in...

    ** ENDED ** J. W. Young & Sons Trudex II 2500 Centrepin

    Hi folks, For sale is this beautiful Trudex II 2500 from J. W. Young & Sons. It’s a 4” reel with narrow drum and spins silently and smoothly with zero wobble. If it’s not mint condition it’s as close as you could get to mint, and it comes with the original box. I think these are better than...
