I suppose this qualifies as TA...

I concluded an interesting transaction yesterday... traded 2 unused Daiwa Sealine 900H reels spooled with 80 Lb chinese mono and rods, for 1 spooled Tiagra 30 WLRSA on a standup Tiagra 3050 rod ...

I'm all smiles!

John - you have one of the best set ups there - I have two identical 30W setups with the same rods and they are my goto setups for marlin pitch baits - I would possibly like a more flexible rod but otherwise LOVE them to bits...they are ideal for the Stripeys in the Cape. Mine are rigged at 50lbs as was suggested by a top marlin guy.

Luckily some of the gear was not at the house and in the boat shed.....Phew...now after such a big uitK@K I need some stress relief... mmm maybe retail therapy would help... I think I need a new Stella... or maybe a pair of Saragosas for the boys flick sticks...mmm ... TA - I love you. ( and Stella honey you are  also up there!)

Usually all this TA occurs before the dec holiday, for the Notoriously hard jan, there seems to be a serious dose of TA going around. It must be contagious.
