You know I did not price out my two rods and bait casters and say "let's rip fishinsinsation off". I thought, hell, that is a nice combo, I'd be happy with just the rod as the reel is of less interest. I have two nice gear rods that are in very good shape and have baitcasters that I don't and won't use anymore. Maybe this is a win-win. If anyone took my offer as an attempt at an embarassing low ball insult they should have used the PM function or called me out as a cheap bastard...well, I guess someone did one of those.
Anyone have a use for these two gear rods and baitcasting reels let me know. I'd be up for a trade.
Interested in the Ross CLA-4. I need to see some pictures and I live in Nevada so will need to be mailed here.
Let me know if you are interested. Mikie
You have a nice setup there. Seems to me that people have gotten a little emotional about this. I was interested in the setup until checking in with Sage it seems that the Warranty on their fly rods only applies to the original owner. Although I'm sure I'll hear a dozen or so claims otherwise. You may need to lower your expectations on what your setup is worth on the used market.
If you purchased it from a shop then you may want to talk with them about switching it for a comperable gear rod. Even if they don't carry gear rods they can still order them from any manufacture that they deal with.
If you came about it at a really great bargain then you may want to consider what you have invested in it with respect to what people are willing to barter with.
OK- I am going to post up the goods here kids...
how about a used once Loomis gl3 str1263c 10' rod with a shimano calcutta TE401 mint. This is the ultimate steelhead setup. does not get any better than this!!!!!!!
