As above, for use from a kayak coupled with a Shimano Vengeance 20-60g lure rod and thin 25lb braid. Should anything else be on the shortlist in the 2500, 3000 and 3500 size range ?

Thanks everyone for your comments (and questions). The reels are on eBay. As previously mentioned this was never intended to be a sales or touting thread - I just wanted a rough idea of what to expect going forward.

I'll put the same question on there and see what people have to say :)

Thanks - I was actually pretty chuffed with the 3 1/2 pound cod and then that bloody great pollack hit like a steam train. There was no stopping it :) Wish I'd got into this years ago... I bought a Prowler 13 first and then a Tootega Pulse 95 - I've not had the Prowler out since buying the...

OK, I've just put some multipliers up on eBay. Basically I want to change what I don't use into stuff that I will use, so the multipliers are going and I want a couple of Penn spinning reels. I am after a Penn Clash 2500 and 3000 and/or a Penn Spinfisher V SSV3500 Should I be eBay-ing or...

So, a few hundreds yards east of St Mary's island: 7 pounds and change and went like the clappers on light gear - I'm using a 20-60g Shimano Vengeance bass rod, and old (classic ;)) Abu multiplier loaded with thin 30lb braid to a swivel, and about three feet of 20lb mono trace to a weighted...

Just a quick update: With combined excellent advice from Simon, and Pete and Irene (a la Puffin fishing comp), plus John from North East Kayaks & Paddles, I decided to buy everything new and, for a very good price (thanks John) I am now the proud owner of: 1. Ocean Prowler 13 2. Palm drysuit...

Thanks for the replies Thanks for the replies I just had a long chat with Simon Everett who was very generous and patient, offering a wealth of advice and answering all of my questions. I now have the beginnings of a solid plan to go froward with and I hope to make Simon's Flamborough course...

Looking to get into kayak fishing. The more research I do the more questions I end up with. Two of the three regional clubs I have contacted (for safety and skills training) have not replied after over a week of waiting, and the third suggested I contact one of the other two, so no further...

All items withdrawn - fed up with people lowballing :( I've spent more on a set of rings than one guy offered for the SS :rolleyes: So, everything goes back into storage - at least I have some good gear if I get the time to start fishing again.

I've been away for the weekend - responded to various SMS messages though. Will reply to any outstanding PM's now...

Back into storage they go then. Thanks for looking :)

Holywell village, just down from Seaton Delaval

Ladies, gentlement, and those of you who are yet to make up your mind, I am clearing out stuff that hasn't been used in forever or longer :rolleyes: Shakespeare Salt XT Bass, 11' 6" - used twice, not been touched for two years since I bought my Greys Bass rod. Some superficial light marks to...
