slinkymalinky Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 No sooner had I finished a phone call with fellow Fishraider, Hodgey... to tell him how I'd been tempted to buy an ABU Soron STX40 but had decided that I already had enough reels that size... when I made a liar of myself. I now have a complete set of Soron STX's 10, 20, 40, 60, 70. I hope Pure Fishing doesn't bring out any new sizes!! Cheers, Slinky
Hodgey Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 You bloody tackle rat! Now you've just got to catch fish on them. If the rain keeps up you won't have to leave the comfort of your loungeroom! Hodgey
arpie Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 Let's face it, Tony - you are just a Tackle Junkie!! How on earth did you do your 'sourcing' before the internet came along??? Let's see a pic of all of them, lined up in one hit!! Roberta

Cheers, Slinky i want to say congrats mate i have a couple of soron stx's and they are top reel i really like them and would put them agaist the dawias and shimanos any day i can understand you haveing the full set very smart move i think
bluebottle18 Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 Like all of us we do it JUST IN CASE. Enjoy the pleasure you will have and the fishing will be interesting once the rivers settle down.
Csaba Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 (edited) They are great reels, I got a STX 60 coupled with a 6-10kg soron rod. Great combo imho. One question, what size/type line are you using on your STX 60? IF you ever wanted to sell the STX 20, just let me know... Edited January 17, 2011 by Big_Muskellunge
slinkymalinky Posted January 17, 2011 Author Posted January 17, 2011 The 60 has 30lb Fins on one spool and 20lb on the other. Cheers, Slinky
arpie Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 I bet you don't want a 30 and a 50 now, as well!! It would tidy up the wording a bit, tho! Enjoy! Roberta
monch Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 Slinky, are you sure you're not a sales rep for ABU in disguise? You sure have exposed the FR community to these great soron STX's, even I am thinking of an excuse/use to buy one.

Nope... unfortunately I get to pay full retail whack like everyone else Shame there's no 'loyalty club' or frequent buyers points
