Default Ever wish you hadn`t sold it?

Is there any rod that you owned and sold it..but wish you hadn`t?

mine was a 10ft #7 Sage XP...should never have let it go!..sold it to buy a Loomis distance rod but never liked it.

cheers Diarmid.

I have had both and thought the 10ft was a much better rod..depends what you want to use it for though!

Red face The wisdom of a Sage

Hi guys

I kept the XP and got rid of the wife (took the diamond and gold rings with her)........never got a better deal in my life

THEN... I got the AMG Merc at 430 bhp.....sadly she's gone now....Jeeez it was more expensive than the ex at 500quid to change the spark plugs.

O happy days to be a wise old sage
