no experience, but what are you fishing for off the beach with 80lb braid? Is there a reason 50lb wouldn't be enough, i'm sure even big mulloway would be done over easily enough on 50lb. What breaking strain is the rod rated at?

yea iv had a look at em they look good but 80pound is heeps for a big mulloway, big ray or sharks, even 50pound is heeps heavy

the 80pd braid is 4 pegging out lures, i just ask the bloke on his apinion and thort id give it a go. I was going to go with the 50 but thort id give this a go ive got a penn slammer with 50 so im just compairing at this stage and im hoping to do some balloning off the rocks when i head to K.I this weekend. ill let u know the break strain of the rod when i check it out, cant remember now.
