What have I started!?

[Phil Adams]

Just aquired my second centrepin.....I had a Leeds years back but sold it, now Ive just picked up an Okuma Raw (not to everyones taste but I like it).

 

Will I ever stop spinning it? Will it be the only one I'll own? Will my wife stop looking at me strangely for slowly twirling the handles?

 

 

Me'thinks its a slippery slope...

Judging by some of the other sufferers owners on here, I fear you are doomed...

I have an Okuma aventa pro.

I must of spent hours spinning it as I find it quite relaxing. A few times a year I give the bearings a drop of abu oil that came with a multiplier.

My name's Matt ... and I'm a spinner too

I have heard that one or two on here even use them for fishing.....only a rumour though

Now don't be silly Mike! Everyone knows that pins should be displayed proudly on shelves, occasionally brought down to be spun whilst the owners giggle manically

Once your in there, there is No getting out.

You will also require a very expensive watch with a very accurate stop watch LOL

I use a pair of Adcock Stanton's on a couple of 3 piece Harrison Power Float plus 2's and they are gorgeous to use, Float fishing with them is a privilege and playing a good tench feels great. Great ratchet on them as well for when I fall asleep.
