Neal Posted August 10, 2007 Report Posted August 10, 2007 Have a look in Poole Sea Angling Centre at the Mitchell T100 - they were selling them off at a silly price last time I looked. This is a serious piece of kit that I bought to go fishing in the Gambia and to go heavy duty wrecking in deep (300ft) water with 2lb plus of lead - which it lifts effortlessly - along with the odd 50lb Conger! It has not let me down in any situation and I suspect that not many situations require anything heavier. I believe there is a smaller version T50 ? - Andy was selling these reels at Quote

TomBettle Posted August 18, 2007 Report Posted August 18, 2007 I have a Formula 15 which has been out on a couple of trips, but I don't think ever seen the water (tell a lie, it came sharking and that was the closest it got to salt - no takes). It's loaded with 65lb braid (I think) at the moment... Make me an offer Trevor, bare in mind it is mint and I'll still have the box somewhere. Tom Quote
