Cracking “poike” well doneKev D wrote: ↑Sun Nov 01, 2020 8:41 pm The Avon Royal Supreme has features that a lot of far more prestigious reels lack. The outboard ratchet lever nestling conveniently next to the reel foot being one . No fumbling for that one with cold and wet hands.
And the adjustable drag lever is perfect for subtly preventing the drum from rotating when ledgering in a strong current.
Plus l caught my biggest freshwater fish on a G&Y ARS last Sunday !

I've just nabbed an Avon Gypsy myself I'll pop some pics up once its had some TLC a lovely little pin indeed!Olly wrote: ↑Mon Nov 02, 2020 1:34 pm I have a G & Y Big Piker which I have used very successfully for vane float fishing for pike. You can set the speed of the line flowing off the reel quite easily when drifting a bait.
I also have an Avon Gypsy, at 3" a small reel for light line under the tip work.
