if its going to jeopardise or ruin a France trip you can pick the 1400 xtd second hand for 80 quid if you look around, surely 160 to salvage a good France trip is worth it

I'm fecked for going to France if I can't get one

Time for a stupid Q, why, is their something special I don't know about this reel ?
To my knowledge the line guard only prevents line going behind the spool (and that doesn't always work), and that can be prevented by careful use, can't it

Either way, there's a pair on Ebay, push comes to shove, also 1 with a broken guard too, if they're the same reels.
