The One That Got Away (Regret Sales Thread).

Yeah man, that would have haunted me as well. 

I have a few, but at the top of the list is my one and only I'ZE Light 103 that I didn't ever get to figure out how to get a right pinion shaft swap in for the higher 7.2:1 gears to work.  That reel was my do all and also was responsible for the second largest Colorado 7lb bass I ever caught out of Quincy reservoir on the 9th Anniversary of 911.

FWIW, a couple of Ian Tuned Monoblocks are also on the list...one a RH 5.8 and the other a LH with 7.2.

Hmmm, can’t really think of anything off the top of my head that was too significant. I am a hoarder who has a hard time letting go of discontinued things. If I feel the chase for said item would be too troublesome to obtain again I won’t let it go. With that said I do miss that blacked out SLP CF handle I traded you @ RISE, and well Christmas is just around the corner 🤣

@kickerfish1 

Haha...lol.

She’s found a new home…

Love it and I am good with it since it is on a Zillion HD!

I couldnt think of anything but the one thing is the Steez light limited. 

I dont know what I was thinking and its just never been the same. That was the dumbest thing I have done in terms of selling off stuff ( i've done some dumb things across the board..lol ) 

But i have found a few that were wayy too high or just not the right timing for me. 

Shimano Poison Glorious Hyper Wolf from the OG lineup. I sold it to RISE, who I believe sold it to another member. I would buy that rod back in a heartbeat. Should never have let that outta my lineup.

Runner up was my NIB Shimano Scorpion XT1000. Never shoulda sold it, but thankfully I replaced it with another 99% perfect:

@ Triple- I still have that Scorpion 100XT my friend. It is just as nice and mint as ever

Ahhh, memories of driving 2.5 hours to pick it up from you/meet you in person. Good times, brother. Good times. 

@kickerfish1 I did not remember who I even sold it to! I am so glad it went to a true enthusiast! I got it from Jun at Japan Tackle and he hand picked it for me to ensure the best sideplate fitment. You truly have a gem in your hands friend!

Post up some pics when you can, I would love to see what rod you have for it and any mods you may have done!

@rise Good times indeed! If only I had known the Dark Lord himself was coming my way, I would have had you over for dinner or we could have gone fishing! But I am so glad that our paths crossed either way brother!

It now has a KTF spool and resides on a Fenwick Goldenwing!

Likewise, my friend. Definitely grateful that we’ve met and I plan on our paths crossing again sooner than later. We will get out in the water together in the near future. 🫵🏻👊🏼🙏🏼
