Edit, Put 'ultra rare, hard to find' in your ad, maybe 'be quick, don't miss what could be a once in a lifetime chance to own a piece of fishing history' and never mind rare as rocking horse *****, 'Unicorn *****' might just cover the enormity of this opportunity.

Well they'll more than likely be up for sale soon if you like them

Look alright to me, only issue is like the old days not scratching the varnish.

Just use them for nights, nothing to be embarrassment about, they will be fine

Depends if it really bothers you or not, quality blank at the end of the day, or even night

Not sure if these are what you wanted to see but its the best I could do.
I had to get a 'proper' camera out just to get these.

If you don’t like them and paid around £250-300 for the pair I’m sure they would be easy enough to move on for a similar price. I like the green, although that epoxy job would put me off tbh.

So not well built then? Bummer.
TBH, I was just so happy I found these in 12ft & 2lb TC.
Maybe I should've taken a much closer look at them but I probablty wouldn't have noticed anyway as this was the 1st pair I had seen.
The fact the the seller wouldn't let me into his house and I had to view them in the dark didn't help I guess.

I will say one thing about them .Whoever built them is cack handed as they have epoxied the stainless /ally winding check . Rrp on those new (plain carbon) with cork handles is £325 each so its really what someone would want to pay.

Its hard to explain how to do it without it sounding complicated but here goes
When I clicked your link to the gallery, opened an image then hit the share button and it gives a choice of links, copy the one 'direct link'.

Then have a look in the test thread in the faqs/help page, I can't actually type the code you need to write without it disappearing when I post


Imgbb is free and has the links available to just post without having to do the coding

>img src=yourlinkhere width=500<
You type this but with the >< the other way round, replace the yourlinkhere with your link
