oh also, is it possible to cast small plastics and other lures for salmon/redfin etc

Hi all,Was interested in giving baitcasters a shot just for the heck of it. Was wondering if anyone has any experience with pflueger criterion.Its around $25 on amazon and was wondering if its worth a shot? http://www.amazon.com/Pflueger-Criterion-Reel-100-Yards-12-Pound/dp/B0036XG7UA/ref=sr_1_762?s=sporting-goods&ie=UTF8&qid=1373374859&sr=1-762Im only after something cheap to get a hang of things and to see if its my type of thing or not.Cheers.

I've got 10lb fireline crystal for the sambos. Its abit over kill for the ones ive caught so far which are 25-35cm. But for bigger ones you can still put alot of hurt on them with 10lb. Fireline is cheap and casts well. Only thing is that it knotted up a couple of times but quite easy to undo because the line is stiffish.

Which psycho picked up the browny? Far out.

I wouldnt think it would matter too much with rods. I use rays and JW rods and they havent let me down so far. As long as you have a half decent reel should be okay.stay away from ebay reels lol

I Fish at waits with 7foot rod all the time. All the times i've been they are not more than 10-20 meters out. Never had a problem bagging out. But then again, each to his own. I like the fight of the fish

I use 7 foot 2-4kg graphite paired with a 2000 size okuma flame with 200m of 6lb braid, 10lb leader. gettting them on light tackle in the surf is great great fun. Take waders if you have, or go in with shorts lol.

bottle cap lures. look it up

The Shakespeare reel seems a little too big for what im after lol. Might get the sienna as u guys suggested

too big for catching 30lb carp

Hi guys I need some opinions!Im trying to decide between a 500 size Shimano Sienna or Sedona. Its for a black/red nanostrike rod shown in the picture.Im not only interested in reel quality but how it will look matched up with the rod. Try to convince me, K GO!

Right now i got PEX 6lb on my okuma flame. Seems to be quiet decent and 30 bux for 500m isnt bad either Im also running a brand called "hicatch" on one of my bigger reels at 60lb. Muscled in a 100lb+ ray not too long ago so its also good. But as alot of people would tell you better brands = better quality. But if ur a cheapo like me then ur good

$1.02 to no one catching crap all.

There was a Sienna 2500 / graphite combo going for 79 bux at BCF. But the aernos is a better reel

Might pop by south oz rods tomorrow then. Looks like its just around the block from me too
