My first rod was a Shakey Alpha glass fibre thing, 7-8 and bright orange/amber n colour, the reel a Shakey something or other and the line...wait for this, a Cortland 444!! Cost more than the rod and reel put together!

The whole outfir must have been close to a pound in weight!

Hi Marc sorry missed this comment, yes it is an ice-fishing reel, thought about using it for line-to-hand.
