Priceless tackle?

[Derek Funcks]

Not worth a fortune by any means, but something i would never ever sell, a set of 3 handmade river floats, given to me as a memento of the day, by a friend from a previous forum. Travelled from Liverpool to Derbyshire, just for a meet up, and a lesson in Centrepin fishing. Fantastic day, one i,ll always cherish. Thank you Chavender.

Bloody Hell, i clicked on a "priceless tackle" thread in the Barbel Talk section, and found a motorbike forum. Have the mods ( excuse the pun ) all pee'd off on their scooters

It was kinda getting confusing, so I kickstarted another thread and wheeled the "bike" threads outta here

For fishing priceless stuff stay here - for two-wheeled stuff don your leathers/parkas and take ride over to the Social Board

The only thing I have that I'd never sell is the Intrepid Standard a neighbour bought for me, that went with a Milbro solid glass rod Dad bought me - these both on (or around) my 6th birthday. Sadly the rod didn't make it, but the reel is still here

Only kidding it was getting out of hand, but love the stories of a bygone era, good while it lasted.

That's the nature of threads, sometimes we digress!

I'll try to stay on topic in future
