Search on eBay for Solar baiting needle, then click highest price and P+P.
I was shocked

nice, will continue to sit on them, im in no rush to sell them, i never sell anything if im honest.

got an old fox tacklebox full of all solar indicators, the stainless arms, the chains, bobbins with all the stainless tops and bottoms, all the good ball clips.

dont know if anyone remembers these, but when thinking anglers first started out they had this large stick needle, the needle screwed into the body for storage, they got a bit of a cult following as thinking sold em all and wasnt able to get them again or something, i was lucky enough to get one.

well paul selman used to have a small tackle shop attached to his forum and one day as i was browsing this i saw they had these needles a few years since thinking ran out, so i bought the bloody lot! still have them all as well

The Solar Globetrotter pods are going for silly money on EBay. There's one currently with bids already up to £215 & there's 7 days left on the auction. I've got one sat in the garage, it's virtually brand new, I've only ever used it a couple of time's. If I ever need the cash, I know what I'll be selling!

These are going for silly money..... I'd be watching closely and sicking it on- could be nearer £300/350 average at this rate!

Another thing I've noticed is the Weston spools for SS3s or 5000Ts going for £70 each when they come up..... same price as new & they're in stock at Weston.... madness

That pic is my one. It's ok but I don't think the tri post design is the best.

I had one for many years. Tough as old boots, very versatile but as mentioned the tri post was a flawed design. Pretty much useless if using Delks as they would all go off at once if any sensitivity was used no matter how hard you did the tri post up.

In the end it was the excessive usage costs that put me off. Hiring a team of Sherpa's to carry it just got too expensive
