    Hey guys, I have a couple Thorne Bros rods that just don’t get used. Trying to raise a bit more money thanks to a ridiculous holiday season.

    26″ Tripwire light, REC guides. Tica Cetus SS500. $80 for the rod, $115 for the combo.

    This is a fantastic panfish rod, I’ve used it 2 or 3 times total, otherwise it’s sat well protected on a rod rack or in a rod case.

    26″ Quiverstick. $50 for the rod, I could throw in another Tica Cetus SS500 for $85 total.

    This is a couple years old but honestly I’ve never used it. It has their old outside guides, not their REC guides. This rod is labeled with “Quiverstick – <my name>”. For this, the blank is black though so a black sharpie should remove my name just fine. Otherwise you can pretend that you stole it from me or something?

    Both of these are great panfish rods, I just haven’t had a reason to use anything but my noodle rods to be honest.

    I’m located in Mahtomedi and I’m not looking to ship anything.

    I will add pictures later tonight once I get the rods out of their cases.

    Here are some pictures. Note that the quiverstick did at one point have a reel taped to it, but it’s no longer there and there is slight marking on the cork, but very slight.

    And the tripwire actually has the Tica SB500, not the SS500.

    Forgot to mention, if you buy the tripwire + reel, I will throw in AT NO CHARGE TO YOU, the already spooled on 3 lb test Sufix Ice Magic.

    That’s a $1 value ABSOLUTELY FREE.

    BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE.

    If you order now, I will include the jig that is attached to that line AT NO COST TO YOU! That’s a Wolfram jig, a $2.50 tungsten powerhouse, ready to catch you fish.

    IT GETS BETTER. The pictured mustache worm will also be included at no additional cost. CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?! That’s a $.20 value.

    Had a question on the Tripwire blank, I’m checking into that now as I don’t remember if it’s the quiverstick blank or the panfish sweetheart blank.

    Will update when I find out!

    If it came off their shelf, it should be a Finesse Sweetheart blank.

    Is 26″ the total length of the Trip Wire rod?

    23″ is the length of the rod blank, the titanium spring bobber extends another 3 inches past that.

    I can also confirm that it is the Panfish Sweetheart blank, as long as Merican Eagle is telling the truth :). This rod was bought off the shelf there.
