I'm intrigued Bob. I've just ďug out a 9ft fibreglass spinning/Carp/Pike rod that will also go with it. But I'll have to refurb it first.BobTheFloat wrote: ↑Fri Jan 04, 2019 12:47 pm I've been collecting these for quite a while now (much to the amusement of some fellow members YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE !) I'll pop a post up and some pics when I get a chance end of next week. I love mine and they are my go to fixed spool reels

Re: Re - discovering the Daiwa No.7500
The ridicule from the guys comes when I put them on cane in favour of my Altex reels (Not that I used fixed spools much these days)
I was explaining to Skeff at Ashmead how much I liked them and used them with cane ( trying to justify myself really) and explained the stick I get from the lads and he simply smiled and said " And rightly so"

And yes I am one of "the guys" that continuously ridicule (or takes the p**s) Bob and his unbelievably huge collection of "Brown reels".......

I think it’s lovely that Tel collects these reels....saves the rest of us from cluttering up our tackle rooms!
