Unused rod as above. Still has shrink wrapped butt. Standard Harrison grey blank with burgundy whipping. Butt and middle section have double leg rings, top section has single leg. Includes a proper 3 section cloth bag. Davis Tackle do not appear to be selling these rods any more. Should make a...
Well it turns out it was me being paranoid after all. The winning bidder paid for the reel lunchtime today and sent me a message which didn't make much sense when translated to English from German. No apology for the delay in payment though. Ended up with just under £800 after the fees so not a...
I have just talked with Robert Fox re his new Wye fishery. It is both banks above Hoarwithy bridge. I asked him about the gallery photos and he was adamant they were all from both banks above the bridge. He was a bit vague re access to the right Aramstone bank but did say that the boundary was...
Absolutely right and I should have spoken to both people first. So, I have called Robert Fox but only get a recorded message. I have spoken to Stan and he has confirmed that it is both banks upstream from Hoarwithy bridge round to nearly the Whirlihole. Don't know what the boundary is on the...
Going to be a bit controversial now. I know this part of the Wye very well. Just had a look at the gallery and I'm not too sure that some of the pictures were taken where this fishery is supposed to be. Several of the pictures don't look right to me. The one with the bridge is missing the weird...
Nigel, I'll get back to you once I've moved. If you don't hear from me within the first two weeks in June, send me a pm to remind me. Got a lot on my plate at the moment with the move. Cheers for the info and the offer of help. I will get back to you. I'll post this as a pm to you as well.
Did a bit of research and found the highest price previously paid on Ebay was £660. So it was a nice surprise (to start with) to get £870 as a winning bid. Just a bit cheesed off now re scammers and chancers but I'll keep the info above in mind. I'm in the process of moving to Wiltshire in the...
I've just sold (or so I thought) a Chris Lythe centrepin on Ebay. The winning bidder has not contacted me since Sunday and appears to have no intention of paying. The underbidder started at £600 and bid up to £850 in £50 bids then stopped ( not artificial ebay bids). The winning bid was...
A very late thanks for your replies. Will give Harrisons a go. Unfortunately, Jack Simpson retired and sold up to Angling Direct some time ago. You can guess the result. Another warehouse, in a different location from the old Simpsons, trading on the name and selling mostly overpriced tat. HO Hum
Probably a long shot - I obtained a Simpsons of Turnford Response Specialist Barbel rod from Ebay a short while ago but it is missing the normal tip section. The rod was made using what I think is a 12ft Harrison three piece blank (Tryptych?) with spigot joints and is 1.75lb test (or...
