cleaning my collection display out a bit. if you never had a chance to buy the full gold color anodized Saltiga 30T 40 or 50, years ago, as it was extremely limited run. even I dont have any gold Saltigas in my collection. and i aint paying $600-900 for one. a great alternative was this JDM Sealine 600GM is it the same size as the Saltiga 40, as shown in the picture. The Saltiga 40 is not for sale, as thats my extra heavy heaver big bait reel. the 600GM's are about 20 years old. all bearings were changed out and cleaned/relubed all moving parts. everything works great. normal wear and tear on exteriors. spools has some corrosion but brushed them cleaned and shot gold paint to stop it from going anymore. just fully tape the arbor or line it with a full layer of thin mono before you load up braid. it has a lower gearing than the USDM Saltiga 30T 40 50 the sealine 600gm had a 4.2:1 ratio where as the USDM Saltiga had 4.9:1 it also had a higher max working drag at like 29lbs compared to the saltigas 25lb. more power!! best for heavy jigging, vertical jigging, bottom wreck fishing, even trolling if needed. i used them for cod and wrecks. lovely to work with. does not have clicker or pin brakes like the Saltigas and the 6 point drag star is a nice addition. nice blingly reel. did i mention its fully gold anodized? reel auto engages with handle crank. Stock drag materials works great. You can upgrade to carbontex if wanted by contacting dawn and buying the saltiga 30t 40 50 washers. no boxes or clamps. $320 shipped for the slightly nicer cosmetic one (left) $270 shipped for the slightly more worn exterior one. (right, its has some more scuffs on the left rim) take both for $520 shipped. Or cash local 11209 PPFF, VenmoFF, Zelle. If you want G&S +3% and I'll run it through my business PP invoice and potentially have to charge you sales tax. buy with confidence, as with any reel i part with. if you dont like it, or its not as described. i will always take it back. no questions.

Want to sell brand new, never fished (I did remove the tags But still have them) lamiglas GSB 1201m aka gsb 101OS, 10’ “old school”, 1 piece surf rod. My wife bought me this as a present and I cannot return it. I’m looking for $400 or willing to trade for a GSB 1201L. Will not ship, Long Island pickup only (will travel to nearly any part of the island).

So my dad made a trip to his township's recycling center to dispose of some construction debris and he came across an old school spinning rod/reel. He knows I'm now a fishaholic so he rescues it and takes it home. When I saw him he gifted it to me. There was a few decades old worth of dust/grime on it and the reel was seized up. My reaction was lukewarm at best and a little snooty at worst..."I don't have the time for this" would summarize it best. I wasn't crazy about it at first but after some thought, I realized I've become everything I hated. These days almost everything is throw away disposable chi-com garbage. So I decided to salvage it. I put in some elbow grease to clean up the rod. I tore down the reel from top to bottom. It was seized up due to the dried up original grease. No saltwater intrusion. I was amazed at how robust and solid this reel was built. Its a tank. After grease+assembly it works perfectly. This would make the perfect bait rod for my wife and son and should outlast anything Wal-Mart has to offer. My plan is to take them fishing at a popular moco spot for when the blues show up in numbers. If you see us along with this beast say "hello!" Does anyone have any idea how old this setup is? How about recommendations for what I should spool it with? I was thinking 30lb mono. Don't forget to say hello. "

I have an old 9'-1.5" Fenwick Feralite. It was wrapped many years ago w/Fuji guides (ones with a whiteish/green shock ring), the ferrule also got wrapped - for why I can't remember - anyway: I just cleaned-up the wraps & coated them w/Threadmaster One & they look fine & I plan to repaint the rod w/as close to original red/brown & use it. So Is there any way to determine what reels, lines, etc. it should take ??? Thanks ...
