  • To much kit

    Was sorting through my kit the other day ( 3 beach rods 7 multiplyer reels uptide rod boat rods 4 spinning rods 6 fixed spool reels ) and thought why do I have all this kit when recently all I've been using is my uptide rod and a fixed spool reel an been doing ok. then wondered how many guys have a thousands of pounds worth of top rods and reels and never be able to use them to their full potential and a rod and reel costing £100 would catch them just as many fish

    I have 3 rods and my dad has 2. We use the rods each and normally share reels, we have 10+ reels although all I use is fixed spool now. The rods and reels come to a lot of money but I do use al my gear. Some of the reels don't get used but my dad has had them for years so that's why they are kept. The rods I have I use on different ground that's why I use 3.

      Fishing's great, better than spending all your money in the pub.

          I went through this today, I've got 13 rods & about 9 reels, madness but I don't care.
          I've also got 3 bikes & don't care about that either!

            Yep the amount of gear i had was scary, at one point had more rods than Zziplex scaled down alot of the last yeat since my shed was broke into mainly, but even now i take the same rod and reels everywhere 2/3 rods and 4 reels is all anyone needs really, light rod, medium rod and heavy rod.

                I see a few of you guys have a similar problem but I think the biggest problem I've got is I keep looking through the for sale section to see if there's another rod or reel I "need" to make me a better caster or angler lol, I wish
