Yep. The Toyota pickup of the angling world. If you're buying second hand just watch for corrosion. I've found Daiwa very good for parts. Price new from veals is just over the €100 mark, to give some idea of 2nd hand price.

Neil,

I would not pay any more than £40 for a second hand SL as they can be bought new from local tackle shops for between £75 and £80. As teacher said, watch for corrosion or rough running ( SL's are usually smooth as silk 8) )

Think I saw an SL20 going second hand in one of the local shops, was well used but from memory was running ok. Will check it out and get back to you.

Even a bad days fishing is better than working.
