Just say if any fellow anglers missed out last time, the D C web site now has these pins in stock.

Forgive my ignorance, and at the risk of looking a total pillock, can these reels be used as fly reels?

hello, sorry no is your answer there trotting river reels, there was a thread some forum members were after 1 and D P was out of stock, now have some in. for the price the best value.

I was wondering how long these reels have been on the market. Do they stand up to the regular usage?

See the "cheap 'pin" thread under Classic Coarse Fishing section. No reason to think they wont last, solid alloy construction, not much to go wrong unless the bearing wears out, which is highly unlikely I would have thought. Anyway, for £30 squid you can't go wrong!

I will definitely give one of these reels a go, I,ve got a month to get some trotting in on the local River Erewash, the chub have been feeding so they will give it a test.
Thanks.

Hi adsdad they are the the Ikonix reel which sells for double the price.

Thanks for the heads up, just ordered one. I missed them last time.
