It's hard togo past a Shimano Baitrunner reel in either 3500,4500or 6500 size for the big fishies. Great from the boat or the beach. The 4500 size is the best all rounder RRP is $265.00 from Shimano. Also the Penn Liveliner is quite good RRP 229.00.
Then you need the rod:D
thanks guys and Narada..
baitrunner is tempting.. as it could be a nice dual use reel.
this is my current setup
a) beach fishing - i have a 12ft jarvis walker combo that got me started and does a reasonable job.. but its not harder to get nicer on these kind of rods..
b) Boat gear - I have 2 rods and reels - 1 saratoga snapper rod 6ft and a cheapish but nice running overhead reel (first boat rod kit to get me going) and i have a nice better rod a bargain at $30 from anaconda instead of rrp of $269, and mid sized shakespeare overhead reel. im guessing you can never have too many boat rods :)
i generally boat fish more
so i generally seem to prefer overhead reels for boat fishing as i generally dont troll or use lures or plastics.. thats not to say i wont tho.. :)
i get broken quite frequently from the boat.. mainly rays.. but there is something else maybe shark or samson that runs like a train.. happens usually once an outing.. thats using 15kg main line with 20kg leader.. and im gentle (ex UK coarse fisherman fetching in 20+lb carp on 2.2lb line.. on a roach pole :) )
so the idea of the baitrunner is a nice idea.. what overhead options would you recommend.. and also what rod would you suggest :)
i wish i had a bit of time to research this nicely.. im in the middle of renovations again.. :(
Thanks
Steve
