Hello,

I am definitely on the mission of thinning the hareem.......I have this one for sale, a proper reel...bullet proof and getting hard to find.  Note there is some boat rash on one edge of the reel shown in the pictures.

I also have a spare spool however it is gunmetal and the reel and primary spool is champagne.

A fair price may be £100.00 for the reel and £50.00 for the spool, would prefer to sell together but separate would be fine.  The line is also included which is a pristine Snowbee XS WF5F.

Steven,

Cheers

Hi Andy,

Spare spool is brand new and never been used, it is in the box.

Cheers,

Andy- I lost a tiny, fiddly wee bugger of a spring from the centre of a Shimano spool when doing some reel maintenance.  It had, as springs do, sprung free and landed on the floor a few times, and been safely retrieved after much crawling around cursing. Eventually, inevitably, predictably, the spring defeated my sausage fingers, sprung loose, and quietly disappeared somewhere on the floor… sigh.

Anyway, if you did not know about the, Felindre do shimano servicing and fitting of tiny, fiddly wee spring buggers.

Steven, hope that doesn’t scupper your spool sale… sorry!

Someone should buy this Shimano reel…I have 4 or 5 Biocraft fly reels in 3/4wt, 5/6 wt,and a couple of spare spools. They are lovely things
