I have a few bits of kit that I take out occasionally simply because it is there and I feel I should be getting use from it.
For example I have a pair of Daiwa 1 3/4lb carp rods that I very rarely use, they struggle at medium range but are useless at long range.
I dug them out yesterday for the first time in years and went for a short 3 hour evening session in a local pit, my first outing since March 14th.
I struggled to get on the spot, but managed just, and was rewarded with one run and a fantastic fight on a soft through action rod, resulting in a pristine 18lb 9oz Common on the mat.
Chances are they will get put away shortly in favour of more conventional tools.
Do you have rods or gear that you only take out once in a blue moon?
