There are best buys, buys that haven’t stood the test of time but what are your worst fishing buys.
Looking in my shed my most recent worst buys are 2 Fox Carp rods, used twice, 2 Wychwood rogue Barbel rods still have plastic wrap on handles. Some secondhand reels just why I bought them I don’t know. 100’s of floats, swim feeders, hooks and lures.
All these fit into me worst buys not because they are rubbish buys but simply because I never needed them in the first place.
Other worst buys the John Wilson Avon system, rubbish with extension added. A Dinsmore folding landing net that broke on the first decent fish. New fishing line that had a glowing report but was rubbish when used.
What have you bought that you would say are bad buys or worst buys or just turn out to be rubbish not fit for purpose?
