Wanted Kunnans and scooter - 12/16/99 03:13 AM

I'm looking for Kunnan salmon/steelhead rods either casting, spinning, or fly. If you have any you'd like to sell send me an email with size, line wt or wt of flyline, and how much you'd like for it. I love their rods and I snapped my 8'6 medium light action a year ago and would love to get another brown blank model and even buy some more.

I also am looking for a streetlegal scooter that doesn't need a motorcycle endorsement that is dependable, but inexpensive. I'm a single father of two so can't afford a brand new or newer one,I just need one for running a drift. Email with type and cost. Thanks

good luck finding anyone willing to let go of their kunnan. those are wonderful rods. i bought a 8 1/2' med(10-20lb line) a couple of years ago and used it for plunking(my son uses it sparingly now). got lucky as the store only had about a dozen of them left. went back a week later to get another and they were all gone !happy hunting

Yes, I realize there are alot of people who won't part with Kunnan's, I have three and wouldn't part with any. I know a guy who fixed my broken one, but I don't like chancing it. I was heartbroken when the company burned down and didn't rebuild. I didn't know about it until after most rods available were sold out. I do come across a few, but most are seriously falling apart. I know some people hated them (which I can't believe) and wouldn't mind buying any they'd love to get rid of. So, anyone interested let me know. I'd prefer brown blanks and spiralgraph, not the greenblanks, but I'll take any into consideration. Plus, you have to be in WA state where I can access you, I won't buy sight unseen........

I have the exact model you are looking for, but it is 8'3 now, snapped the tip a few years ago, but it still fishes pretty great, it is in pretty good shape, but you can tell it has been on many a trip....don't know what it is really worth, don't know what I would want for it or to trade for, but I am not COMPLETELY against letting it go. They are awesome rods though.

What's up with Kunnans? After I read this post,I went and looked through my poles. I thought I had a Kunnan, yes I found it. It's a model 7686m med action 8'6" casting rod. It still has the plastic wrap on the cork handle. I haven't used it for years, it feels a bit heavy compared to my Lamiglas and Loomis rods.

hey Dan M, would you want to get rid of that Kunnan? You have no email so I have no way to contact you. Please send me an email reply on my listing above. Well, that's if you live in the WA/OR region. I live in Tacoma, but would be willing to buy it if you're willing to sell it. Let me know....
