Thinking of packing in winter fishing

[jp81]

Right lads, just putting some feelers out ATM to see if there would be any interest in my cod gear. I'm thinking of packing in winter fishing with a baby on the way in the next few weeks. I'd be looking to sell it altogether. I've got a metal banded Kompressor sport in good condition with a new abu griplock reel seat. A 525 mk2 in good condition, 525 slidey, (my back up reel) Slosh 30. shakespeare seat box with full breakaway convertion kit, and a fair amount of terminal tackle. If I was to sell up, I would be looking for £350. Any genuine intrest, shoot me a PM.

Will u split m8

[jp81]

Depends on what your after.

[Daysofspeed]

Keep the gear, cos the bug will bite again and you'll spend a whole lot more trying to replace the stuff you once had.

I'll kit you out for £ 120 for a good rod and reel. If and when you get back into fishing.

£350 seems a good price but you may struggle to sell as a job lot and might be better off selling seperate! You may even get more money that way!
I personally would say:
Rod 160
Mag2 75
Mag 60
Slosh 45
Box 40
So theres 380 without the tackle

100% agree mate!
you will regret it i promise you! it happend to me and im lucky if i get out once a month even though my bairns 5yr old now but i never sold me main gear and its nice knowing you have the gear to pop out when you get the chance mate!

[fishingmark]

I don't know your financial situation but I would say don't sell the gear unless you have to. Put it away and it's there when you need it

imagine the scene, there is an amazing sea on, just dropped down after a big blow the tide is perfect, reports of big fish coming in already. kid is in bed, it's either fishing for a few hours before bed and maybe have a session of a lifetime, orrrrr eastenders or something equally rubbish to melt your brain away.
i know which i would pick. eastenders! lol jk
good luck whatever you do but if your short on cash id sell the majority of it, but keep enough so you can sneak away if the opportunity arises.

[lumpsucker]

I didnt start sea fishing til I had my first one. Needed to get out of the house to keep my sanity. Keep a rod n reel n a few rigs n weights if I were u

[lambengland]

Have you considered selling the rod and 2 of the reels and the box and then buying a cheaper rod and a rucksack so you can still go if you ever want to?

[Dilbertd]

Mate, I drifted away from fishing in the early eighties but I still kept my old ABU gear never thinking I would use it again but I have just started fishing again after 30 years and I am enjoying using my old gear more now than I did then, now I can't get enough ! Hang on to your gear you will use it again ...
