Last night I won a Tica Caimen CT150 reel for $26, its used of course, but in decent shape. These reels easily sell around $100. I've currently got a Tica Caimen KT100 (kokanee special) and a Tica Caimen GT100 (replacement of a KT100 that had levelwind issues) so as I wanted to pick up 2 more poles and reel this year, this gets me off to a good reasonably cheap start
Some good deals come along there if a person is patent enough.
