Lovely collection there. You are missing the ambidextrous ones (eg. 7350, 7550 etc) which are excellent - so something to think about perhaps.

I've just picked up anther 7290 D, to go with the other 7290 D I picked up that didn't really work due to missing parts for the front drag. Hopefully i can get one decent one with spare and have a go for some perch and pike over the next few weeks.

I also think in a few years time the Daiwa reel will be more collectable due to the market of modern Daiwa reels in carp fishing. That's not why I've bought some, I'm doing it because there very, very cheap. Just like me :fish: :fishing1:

Thanks stingray I've seen a few of those RL/RLA models with the anti reverse switch on the back of the reel and different shape .nice looking reels. Do you know if they were later editions ? I won't be making anymore purchases anytime soon as I got THE look today :Hat:

Good quality reels at cheap prices. I agree I think they will only become more collectable :Hat:

Ah, that look. Yes there may have been a few increments to them and they were produced in the special metalic beige versions as well as standard brown.

It is probably worth getting a table at Redditch or Romsey if you are downsizing?
