Nice rods ,late 80's retailed around the £80 mark if i remember correctly .They where made in Scotland and used the the same mandrel as the Whiskers .
Buying old rods can be addictive !!

LOL , your the one who mentioned you'd seen them for sale , looking for replies !
You didn't seem to know that you can't just return items because you changed your mind (unless mail order)
Not argumentative just answering your posts -that's what forums are about .

read my post 53 !
who knows why their for sale new with tags , could be smaller dealers with no web present ,competition wins ,pre orders but changed their mind .

If they have purchased from a shop and changed their mind then the shop doesn't have to accept the return ,hence why they could be for sale privately.
(simple consumer law)

Maybe they used them ,can't just return an for a refund because you decide you changed your mind (unless purchased online/mail order)

I would be surprised if there where fish left that hadn't already spawned though.

Very late , most lakes spawned May/June this year .

I've done well on Wasp , Enigma and his new "test ?" bait shellfish blood .Great White has been a bit hit and miss for me .

What do you want out of a new set of rods ?
Do your current rods do what you want or do you need more or less distance cast bigger bags
etc or are you changing just because you fancy a change ?
