Want!


Finger hovers over the 'buy' button... It's only the fact it's not the -L in the photo, it's a flipped photo of a standard (not to mention the extraordinary price tag) that's stopping me...

  1. Mmmmmm, baitcaster reels.... I love 'em but can't get on with left hand wind for some reason.

    Go on, treat yourself ;o)

    1. I'm not a tackle-tart, doesn't bother me what brand or TV angler's name is on the kit so long as it does the job… Except when it comes to Abu baitcasters… Love them!

      My baitcaster fetish already sees me own more of them than I use… But I will go and have a look at this one in the tackle shop..!

    2. Err, I think that makes you a tackle tart :o)

  2. Don't buy it. I have a left handed Abu here that has been used maybe twice that is sitting in the box in my attic. You are welcome to it. I'll send it over with the RedDrum man if you can wait two weeks.

    1. Just looking at the pretty reels online, wasn't going to buy, hadn't had enough to drink for random internet shopping* - still using the baitcaster you gave me, it hasn't had a twenty so I'm not retiring it just yet (best 17lb). But thanks for the offer.

      When does Captain 'RedDrum' McStingray arrive?

      *Best drunken internet shopping was Jedi, had a few too many and woke up to discover he'd bought a Jag off eBay!

    2. Hope he didn't have to pay postage!!
      I'll send you the reel anyway, better it die in battle than live another 11 years sat in a box.
      Capt Ahab 'red drum' McStingray and his trusty first mate arrive today.

    3. No but it only lasted a couple of months before scrapped!

      Thanks - it'll definitely get a work out here - soon it'll be pike time!

      Good luck with the sharks!!!
