I got a 2pce. 11' rovex aeurus carbon composite Rod rated for 8-15kg from TWAM a little while ago for like $49. Very beefy stick barely feel surf salmon on it! It's now my surf mulloway/bronzie rod just to keep things interesting

The only thing putting me off the braid top shot is the fact my reel isn't level-wind and everything I plan on hooking with it has a tendency to produce screaming runs! That's why I run nylon or mono on my game combos I'm not a big fan of stitches! I need my hands for work lol

Cheers knackers I never even thought of that D'oh! could make it that little bit easier to cast. Not that this combo casts a mile anyway but seeing as most of my baits will be on the bottom it seems like the go. I bought a 300lb wind-on for my 9/0 and 24kg big shark combo which my mate recommended he's pretty cluey with all that but cast distance isn't really a factor with that one as everything is ballooned out. Might just try the doubled up line so 60lb to a tough snap swivel and then 100lb fluoro trace to the hook for rays and some light-medium wire for the toothies

Hey all just wondering if I should buy a wind-on for my setup it's a fin nor BLD25 mated to a rovex 15-24kg stick and spooled with 500m of 30lb platypus mono. It's primarily aimed at targeting eaglies and small-medium sharks. Was thinking maybe 100lb top shot or DJP what are your thoughts? I'm kinda new to this LBG stuff lol cheers for any advice

I recently bought one too squid very happy with it so far for the price! only thing I don't like is the handle which I'll be swapping for an RCS knob eventually

That's what I should've done but I bought it in a rush to go fishing that night and when I noticed it was too late. Just cut the factory join out and re-joined it with a well executed Albright special which I'm pretty handy with and pray it holds! lol definately keen to try any other line but rovex now

I bought a 270m spool of 30lb Rovex viros NXT recently and thankfully I spooled it myself and noticed the factory join in the line about 3/4 into the spool. Wasn't a small join either :woohoo: Happy with the line properties itself but that join has put me off a bit

Hey all I recently bought a Fin-Nor Biscayne Lever drag 25w aimed at eaglies, small-medium sharks and kings tuna etc if I get out that wide. Just wondering if anyone has any reviews or experiences with it I'm yet to hook up with it but I got it for the right price and have a good feeling about it. It's spooled with 30lb Platypus mono and matched with a rovex 15-24kg stick. Any advice is appreciated cheers!
