EBay bargain Derbyshire

Ended.... no bids... Bit suprised as I have one of these handles, had it for years and they are a great bit of kit.

you can buy it off me if you like, thanks for the heads up Clive, less than a mile away from me and collected this morning after contacting the seller

what are these worth and whats the original manufacturer? any idea's
 
Keenets £25 to £30 I expect although I bought mine for £13 from Argos.
 
Ricky,its not what its worth its the fact that 10 years time it will still be able to be used.Bought a similar handle probably 20 years ago from Trevor West and its still going strong, after being trod in the dark and dropped a number of times, its priceless.
 
Thats where I got mine from Clive, its been used and abused since then. I have altered it a little so it can be taken apart and cleaned inside as per the link on the post above, I find that after a while it gets a bit gunged up and a good clean does it no end of good.

thanks for the info chaps, took it out this evening hoping to christen it but it wasnt to be unfortunately, seems to be a sturdy and quality piece of kit and I'm surprised just how light it is, it'll be ideal for some of the swims I fish with near side weed in the summer

again thanks for the heads up Clive, I also got the net with it as well and just need to find a spare spreader block

Think i got my powerstretch from the BFW shop......
 
If your'e looking for a decent landing net pole then look no further than the ''Lone Angler'' site as this is stuff that Trefor approves of and uses himself.
I've had mine 2 1/2 yrs and its like new. Landed in excess of 400 fish with it. Stood on and beat down himalayan balsam with it, great bit of kit.
Say no more.
 
Someone got a good deal.
 
I put a cheeky £85 on it, don't really need another but a cheap spare wouldn't have gone amiss :) Fabulous rod for £107 though, proper result for someone.
