also want to sell g.loomis sjr723, 6ft. ( i didnt post yet).

This i will be interested... PM me your price leh, if price is good then will be very tempting. Although, i already have the same rod but custom build.

Just bought a replacement dive computer after i stuipidly lost mine during my last dive trip.

trying to sort out collection .. hee hee... wnt to buy new one, but need to get some out ( those i no use, hardly use ) very jia larg leh, my cab no space leow...

some OS reels wanna sell:

below pics, all avet reels, want to sell LX and EXW 04/02 nia.

other thn the abv, wanna sell:
okuma titus T50L
penn 345gti
penn 320gt2
daiwa saltiga 40
abu garcia cardinal 806

Buy a new cab!!

I guess the usage for the EXW 04/02 will be pretty low and LX is pretty similar to your other 2 reel. Good choice to offload them. Get the jigger and just winch all the fishes up!

dive comp ... those wrist type ?

Yupz, still prefer the wrist type. However, if i can find those old uwatec aladin dive comp, i'm interested to get spares too.

for OS, current reel i use, saltiga 20, avet mxl, oj2000, alutecnos gorilla 12,penn international torque 200 and stella 8k ...

Waw, you bring so much gears out for OS ah. I have trimmed down my gear by alot, esp since i don't fish much nowadays. From your current list, if its me, i would probably keep the saltiga 20, oj2000 and stella 8k and sell the rest.

OS reels - spin

no lah, usually i bring 2 set, sometimes more if frd dont hv. the alutecnos i like leh, cos got abt 20kg drag, loaded with 100lbs braid, but over kill ard sg, my & tp waters.

OS reels - multi/ overhead
- oj4000 (i like the strength and precision of the reel)
- accurate is gd but i don't really fancy them. too much maintenance work.

was thinking, but i got oj2k leow.
but i like tht oj4k, cos higher drag also got lock mechanism

OS reels - spin
- stella 5k will be my choice if i can afford it. (i like the strength and precision of the reel)
- romppi for sail? i don't mind but preferably dunid to take so many days of leave.

i bought my stella SW 8k from riverland, quite ex leh, cost me 1.2+ K... NNB ay, but i like it, dont want another stella, want a 5 k range.
rompin, me & my frd thinking of going up, want to get 1 to 2 kaki ( total 3 - 4 ppl ) enough, drv one small little car more thn enough for all... but got to wait til sep - nov... likely wkdays, cos less ppl, drv up save on transport, just makan, hotel room + boat... should be quite affordable. dunno ah oh, andrw or any other bro here want to go or not...

hahah, actually i got 2 jig wrex, overhead is a 1 pc, 5'3" ... spin is a 2 pc.. both less thn 300.( bought it abt 3 yrs ago )

van, wht's the usual asking, u the expert on gloomis... hahaha ..me no into light tackle. ... hahahhaa ... OS reel/ rod i alot nia

i think now local sell btw 370-390., i paid online abt 320, i think. use couple of times

pic below

[vandyk]

ya loh, cannot tarhan the butt lenght, so go custom one with eva butt... cork nice, but eva look more neat .. hahaha... u wnt meh ?

Mine is red eva one. Well, i'm sucker for Gloomis rods so will strike if i can get them at good prices, but usually stuffs that i will use of course. Majority of my remaining rods are Gloomis. Hehe

i last dive almost 10 yrs leow... hahaha.... ask me go look at fish, i rather wreck the **** outta of them... hahaha

I go diving to look at the fish, take naked pictures of the fish and hopefully can land myself some pretty looking "fish" during the surface interval. Haha!

no lah, usually i bring 2 set, sometimes more if frd dont hv. the alutecnos i like leh, cos got abt 20kg drag, loaded with 100lbs braid, but over kill ard sg, my & tp waters.

Well, if you have plans to target bigger fishes then maybe its good to keep the reel. I have kinda narrowed down the type of fishing that i will do so have clears those redundant stuffs.

Aiyah, got oj2k doesn't mean cannot get the oj4k mah. The drag is good, cranking is powerful and smooth and look nice. Just need to remember to rinse the reel after use and unspool lines during storage. For that similar reason, i'm using my Conquests for most of my fishing nowadays. Abu 1500/2500 are all in display now. I love the Abus!

Stellas are lovely but always burned a hole in the pocket. For 5k range, Daiwa FreamJ 4500 is cheap and good. Good enough for sailfish trip liao.

Yeah, self drive trip will bring down the cost. However, heading up on wkdays will probably be a problem for most of us. Unlike you lah, towkay dunid to worry.

I think the brand new jigwrex is around $240+/- now.

van, wht's the usual asking, u the expert on gloomis... hahaha ..me no into light tackle. ... hahahhaa ... OS reel/ rod i alot nia

i think now local sell btw 370-390., i paid online abt 320, i think. use couple of times

Hey pet, thanks for the pics. From the pics, it looks like you did some sharping to the cork handle. Am i right?

Me no expert lah, juz research a lot about it during my younger days when i'm more siao onz with fishing. I prefers the older series/model, with IMX being top of my list.

I'm not sure with the local price anymore. I think Theresa don't work at Hock Heng anymore so can't get more discount liao. Haha.

Assuming IMX, depending on model and conditions... The price usually range from 200-280, anything more than 300 is slow to move. Nowadays, fishing folks seem to either go for the affordable off the shelf brands or high end japanese rods liao. Others prefer St Croix to Gloomis. Gloomis is considered overpriced, old school technology liao... But i still like... I'm old sch, me and my IMX and Abu 1500/2500. Haha.

If you sell at 200, i take ah!

Or maybe i cock eye?

I have never tried the higher end st croix, only the old old stuff which i'm not impressed. However, the higher end range seem to receive good feedbacks. You more into "broomstick" lah...

Good. Clear all the redundant rods and load up on the cool stuffs!

Swee! Reserve the rod for me then, will try to arrange one day to pick up the rod from you. Maybe prpp?

Yeah, weekend are generally very popular. Probably the good dates are all booked liao. If take 2 days, then i must seriously rationed my leave liao. Took alot for my upcoming Egypt trip liao. Keep me posted then when you got more firm plans.
