A old thread but none the less,,,forgive me for I have sinned 
Mid this year I sold my original Shakespeare seat box, it had the Octoplus levelling feet, and accessories, all sorts, feeder arm etc etc, Along with it went my1st new pole, bought for me by my parents in law when I was 17, and 2 other poles given to me by members of the Northern Anglers Association canals match lads.
I think it was a 1989 vintage seat box, I bought it from a chap in Lymm, many years my senior and he showed me his shot gun collection when I went to pick it up. It saw many a good fish, a near 2lb Roach, then a record on the newly opened spring bank pool in Antrobus, and a near record golden orfe on Lymm Vale. It also saw a Perch to 3lb on the Dane Road stretch of the Bridgewater Canal, a very good fish for the time.
My head has recently thought of shore fishing and I'm not sure selling it was a good idea...why do we sell things just because they haven't been used in..err..decades

Yes, it is a cracker. Love my 3 rod stainless
But after years of using it as a two rod. I treated myself
To a carbon 2 rod aswell.

Best designed piece of kit probably the MPS Trident rod rod, now copied by main distributors like Century and Saber

Recently got a Korda Hybrid Jacket very impressed with it. Only criticism would be that the sleeves are not windproof, I suppose if they were that would inhibit movement. Very well designed bit of kit.

Agree with the 100T. Everything I want in a shelter.

I've got a wychwood solace foldall. It's a tackle bag with a built in bivvy table, unfortunately not made anymore so I don't know what I'll do when the times comes to replace it. They could've even taken it a stage further and converted it into a food bag with a prep table built in.

I’d like to see how big they are now. At the time, strapped to my back while riding my bike it felt like carrying a washing machine.
