Old skool tackle


Recommended Posts

Any one on here use old school gear, i had a rummage in the loft and got my old Mitchell 410A reels down, i was expecting them to have suffered being stored for so long, but to my surprise they work sweet and smooth and the overall condition is way better then i hoped, these reels along with the older 300 reels were the start of carp fishing reels, and this pair are lovely to say they are close to 50 years old

Always wanted a set of 300s reels ☹️

still would today as long as it’s a set of 3 

You could do a set of 3 for about £100 but you would be buying each reel separate on ebay also you need to make sure bail arm is healthy and working as it should, but they are easy to service and spares are still about, of course it was the 300 that Richard Walker caught the 44lb record carp
