After a nice conditioned one of the above, to be used not for a collection so a few scuffs here and there make no odds, but mint would be nice !

P.m. or call me on 07779080951.
 
Si, looking at a bit of retro tack(le) to have a bash at fishing for the toughest of all quarry species, 'Daddy Ruffe'.....
I'll dig you out a sandwich bag, to use as a sling too weigh any speci's.:D

Well despite the tricky nature of the runty cousin to the original bait-robbing species, I assumed an angler as adept as yourself would undoubtedly get a few good uns.:rolleyes::D

Did you know they were also related to Sea Bass Colin ? wonder what they taste like :eek:
 
Did I know...... Do I really need to answer that.:rolleyes::D

Yeah but best of all, apparently they making a real come back in the Upper Thames region, so much so even a "very inept angler" is cashing in on their resurgence in numbers, now that's biodiversity!!:rolleyes:

(obviously a direct result of water quality improvements:rolleyes:)
 
i saw that £130 cardinal 44, nearly listed mine;) not much help to you as it's not for sale but at £25 it must have been one of the cheapest sold on ebay, although it was so clogged with muck and grease that the handle wouldn't turn:( nice to use now though
