No, not a grey composer, but the vivid green encrustings and concretions that metal acquires when it’s left unused for ages.
So, in readiness and anticipation of Thursday’s boat fishing trip, I took down a tackle box and rod bag which haven’t seen the light of day for several years.
And “several” does mean 7+.
It was therefore with
huge delight that I found the rods to be virtually unblemished, with previously WD-40’d rollers* in fine working order, and reels with
no signs of rust or corrosion.
Even hook traces were clean and ready for action.
Good omens for the trip, eh?

proper boat rods have metal rollers instead of rings
