Mc Rapaic 5 Posted November 29, 2014 Report Share Posted November 29, 2014 Hi guys, I’m in the market for a new combo to be used mostly for snapper fishing on the lower Yorke Peninsula. It will be used for snapper fishing in deepish water; keeping in mind we get the odd stingray and gummy shark. My price limit is around the $500-$600 range. Open to all suggestions, Cheers in advance. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dylbaa 174 Posted November 29, 2014 Report Share Posted November 29, 2014 G'day mate, bait fishing?? If so then I have two combos that I love (I fish yorkes for snapper in mainly 20-30m) First one Is a shimano terez 15-30lb rod, great sensitivity, very powerful blanks! Pulled some monster Rays with it, this has a shimano Stradic 6000fj model attached wih 30ln braid, does the job nicely! The other one is a sil star crystal blue powertip, another great rod for bait fishing, plenty of power down low, this gets matched with an abu 7000 and 30lb braid These are both pretty heavy combos for the Reds but I find we don't get dusted up on structure no where near as much and old me white doesn't have as much time to take our fish, although he always gets a few! Also we fish in BIG red territory Quote Link to post Share on other sites
richteb 1 Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 I just bought a daiwa hyper rod, apparently supposed to be very strong, will put a Shimano Twinpower 5000 and 30lb braid and see how it goes. Also have fin-nor 6500 offshore that I have spooled with 400 m of 50lb braid that might be worth trying also. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
