Not weighed it Mike , I think my PI Inception 4000 which is a similar size feels slightly lighter .
I will weigh it later, it's a back up feeder reel so will be in rests, occasionally a baggin waggler reel for when I set pellet waggler up as well.

Anyone looking for pellets or groundbait in decent quantities and therefore cheaper than the major labels could do worse than trying the Pellet Guys. Full range available and what I have sampled is top notch, well packaged and with speedy delivery.
Today’s delivery, 5kg each of micros and groundbait, in chocolate orange flavour. I’m not convinced the flavour makes a huge difference to the fish but I can vouch it is a very pleasant aroma!

Late finding this post but decided to follow it up as I was going to Angling Direct anyway for a look round.
What a good thing I did too.
So good I bought myself a pair for £30,deal included a spare spool (both extra wide) , double line clips, good line lay and a smooth silky and quite oporation.
Both are the feeder editions that will come in handy for the odd time I need them when most of my rods are already set up for other species/venues.

It is a good deal , I paid £24 for mine ,only got the one, The same reel as you have .
Bought it as a back up feeder reel on the odd occasion I take two feeder rods , Also going to try it as a pellet Waggler and baggin Waggler reel .That will see if it's upto the job , constant casting and reeling in with hopefully a carp on the hook .
@mikench sorry Mike you asked me in July when I first posted about this what it weighed , I did weigh but forgot to post . I will get round to again unless Mick beats me to it .

I’m not sure about that website, Clive. It looks like it’s too good to be trueJ.W Young JW Young Purist II Y2041 - Centre pins UK: Comfort is the New Fashion! - Cheap Reels Store - Reelsdiscount.com

If you look at the other fixed spool reels they are more realistically priced. I think they may have speculated on the pins thinking the steelhead guys might buy them. If you used paypal your purchase would be safe.
I have the Super Lightweight. It is a lovely reel.

I used one of my pair last monday, (all day for two bites and two roach) if you hav'nt used yours yet I think you'll be more than satisfied with it.
Longer casting ability and the smoothest return I've ever had on a fixed spool reel.
Even if I only get a few years use from them (tho I doubt it, as expecting much more now) they'll be worth the outlay!

Anyone looking for a new feeder rod? I think Daiwa are phasing out the N'Zon S and there are some great deals to be had. The 10ft 40g is pretty rare on the ground, but Fishing Tackle and Bait have got two 11ft models, as well as 12 and 13ft models, casting from 60g upwards. I've not used these rods as such, but the HVF carbon they use in the blanks is excellent. I've used it in their lure rods and it's great. Stiff, light but still very sensitive. They used to retail for about £110; I've just ordered the 11ft 3 piece one from FTB for £55. Other places may have different models.
Daiwa N'ZON S Feeder Rod Fishing Tackle and Bait
Possibly the best ever feeder rods we have designed at this price point, the N’ZON S has reset the bar for others. Utilizing High Volume Fibre HVF technology and carbon CQ/CT tips delivers performance and feel that has never been offered befor .... £54.99.

I know absolutely nothing about pole fishing however, I thought I might try it one day and this was for sale for £12 in a shop. Leeda the make, which I suppose is not a big name. It is 12 point something meters and from what I can make out three different end pieces. . Assuming it is all there, is it worth a punt?

For £12 most definitely! The company Leeda is owned by the same people as MAP. I personally fish with a MAP pole that retails for £000’s.
As a starter pole, this will be fine for fishing at short range and down the margins, which are the places a beginner should target anyway.
I think you’ll struggle to get further top kits or spares if you break it, but at that price that’s a risk worth taking.
Go for it!
Definitely worth a punt for that price. Leeda is a very big tackle company, if a little out of fashion and at the budget end nowadays.
It should be quite usable. However I doubt it will be at its best at the stated 12 meters. Poles never are especially budget jobs.
Probably quite OK at about 9 meters.
The power top at no 14s is ok for commies and the lighter ones for silvers.
If there is elastic fitted already do not trust it . Start with new. You will need to buy something called a diamond eye wire to fit new elastic. They are cheap and widely available. There are bound to be lots of Youtube videos on line.
To start dont worry about all the high tec lines etc. Just try it out with what you have. A couple of pole floats and away you go.
