Yup, that's right - the one I bought from Sandy earlier in the year. Going as I'm getting something else instead..... and I need to raise a few quid first
So I'm selling a Snowbee XS 780 cartridge fly reel (black), this is the better machined version and can be seen on the snowbee website at
http://www.snowbee.co.uk/fly_reels.html just scroll down to the XS Cartridge reel, but
not the XSD.
I already have the 'conventional' large arbour #7/8 wt XS reel and am a big fan (it's staying, I can only part with so many toys
) but as my head has been turned by something else the XS cartridge reel and kit has to go. I have used it just once (Lintrathen outing) so other than the fact that one cartridge doesn't have a line on it the reel is in the mint condition I got it in when I bought it off Sandy.
The cartridges are loaded with backing and four are loaded with WF #7 lines on them including a Snowbee buzzer tip, a Daiwa wilderness intermediate, a Daiwa wilderness medium sinker and an Airflo DI-7 extra fast sinker.
Get a floating line on the 'empty' cartridge and you have a complete armoury ready to go
Snowbee list price for the reel and cartridges
alone is £175, as it's now missing the floating line I'm open to sensible cash
offers around £135 for the lot - which is a very good deal IMHO
