stb37 0 Posted November 18, 2014 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 Hi all, Looking for some advice regarding a new combo I am hoping to tick a few boxes with, more so the weights/lengths of rods and size of reels than makes and models… I am headed to Port Vincent to chase some snapper over Christmas/New Year, Lake Monduran in QLD chasing Barra later in the year and typically fish parts of the Murray but looking to throw a couple of jackals for Yellas and am looking for the combo with the best fit to try and suit all these types of fishing? I know they're a pretty broad group but not looking for the perfect outfit for each simply something that will suffice for all. I typically fish with gear at the lighter end of the spectrum. Any help would be spot on. Cheers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hugo 120 Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 Sounds like a fun bucket list. I would have no problems using my Nitro Magnum Butt with a certate 2500R for all these fishing styles. I use it plastic fishing for snapper with 15lb Tufline. A second spool with 30lb braid would cover trolling and casting in Monduram and the Murray. The Nitro is 7'6" and rated 4-6kg but can fish heavier than this. Most new 2500 sized reels will have up to 7 or 8kg drag and heaps of capacity for up to 30lb braid. Raider 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
