Mate, go with seagijjer. Best salmon rod you can find for around 240$.You will never regret. My SeaJigger 305 handles 35gm lures for Browns no worries and also 65-70gm on West Coast. Casts a mile, and pulls average size salmons from Browns and big monsters 4-5kg+ on West Coast effortlessly. And yes, you will be casting all day without getting tired. I also have Daiwa Sensor surf, this rod is different and i cant compare it to SeaJigger.
