Fresh water gear - Striper Talk Striped Bass Fishing, Surfcasting, Boating

mackenzie · 02-18-2008, 12:24 PM

Just got into my garage after the "tide" receded to try to sort out my saltwater equipment but had to wade through the fresh water stuff to get to it. Way too much. Mainly aimed at bass but some of the spinners would work for trout. Have both spinning and baitcasting combos plus some "loose" rods and reels. If you're interested give me a holler. A couple of outfits might work for lite saltwater.

I'm looking for a baitcaster that could be used for salt or fresh, if you have a combo of some sort I might be interested

FINNBAR · 02-18-2008, 04:05 PM

What baits and lures do you have? I am trying to get back into fishing sweetwater with the kids after a long absence, lemme know and thx.

Hi, I've got two possible outfits that might make it in the salt. In both cases I think the rods would be no problem but don't know how the reels would stand up. 7' Lews Crankin rod-fiberglass-rated for 3/8-1 oz.-10 to 20 lb. test medium action. The reel is a Lew's BB1NG. 6'6" Quantum Tour rod-1/4-2oz. 10-30 lb heavy action. The reel is a Quantum Pro 4. I don't think I've used either one more than a couple of times each. $40 each. Also have a 9' Shakespeare fiberglass fly rod with Medalist reel if you think you might be interested. Bought it for largemouth and stripers but never got into the saltwater end of it. $20

Hi, Most of the stuff is for bass as I said. Mainly spinnerbaits-crankbaits-plastic worms etc.-some topwater. If you give me a few days I'll have a better idea of what I've got. Our cellar/garage flooded so it's not the most comfortable spot in the house to be grubbing around. Stuff is kind of spread around and hiding. How old are the kids and what level are they at fishing wise?

FINNBAR · 02-18-2008, 04:54 PM

Sorry to hear about the flood, Kids are 5 and 8, they can launch spincast reels great, introducing them to regular spinning outfits now. Let me know what you come up with, and no rush, like I said, just getting back into it so we basically need everything bait and lure wise.

The reel is a Quantum Pro 4. I don't think it's made anymore but it is new condition outside of some dust as I only used it once or twice. Has a clicker. 4.5 ratio. The rod is a Quantum Tour Edition TC667F heavy action 10-30lb test rated for 1/4-2oz. The blank is lamiglas HSX graphite. Sorry-don't have the pleasure of fighting that traffic day in and day out. Live and work in Weymouth. If you're interested maybe we can set something up. I aslo have several spinning outfits and baitcasting setups available-just so you know. Thanx for the interest.

I've got three outfits with bb1ng's on them. Would prefer to sell as complete setups. If it doesn't work out I'll be in touch. Also have a setup with lews RB4US on it.

freebie · 02-24-2008, 08:28 PM

I'll take one of the bb1ng combos, any trade interest?
