You can pay an awful lot more for reels from the likes of Hardy or Orvis but most of the time with small course fish you won't need to play the fish off the reel so it doesn't need to be anything fancy or expensive.

How much do you want for it.

It's not for sale, I was simply trying to illustrate what I think would be a good buy and worth considering.

How much do you want for it and do you want a cheque or paypal .

ok thanks . I will have a look round.

I fish with one of these and have always considering the name "The Brook" to be somewhat misleading.At 10' is certainly too long to be used on small rivers and brooks and it will cast 6 to 8 weight lines.I use mine for trout fishing on reservoirs and for sea trout fishing on both loughs and rivers.its got a rather slow action.
