[Beach ballooning...]

Thinking about ballooning off the beach here in wa,

maybe helium but probs just sending livies out under a balloon

chasing pelagics,

wanting to know what setup would be nice- rod reel line

thinking a torium 30 with 50lb on a abu veritas 10-20kg overhead 7'9" rod,

cheers

[Need to spend some cash]

Looking at getting a 5k gosa on a anarchy 762sph 5-12kg

Running Pe3 braid and anything from 30lb fluro for snapper up to 80 or 100 varivas for big northern reefies

Just want opinions on this

Cheers

[Big fish Big structure]

not too big on overheads, already got similar for ballooning, just not like casting them

 

Got a 10500 spinfisher with 80lb, just bit heavy to hold,

probs maybe go for a bg 6500 or a spinfisher 8500

[Big fish Big structure]

[Minimum size spinning reel for 80lb topwater stickbaits/poppers]

How much line does it hold

[Minimum size spinning reel for 80lb topwater stickbaits/poppers]

Think ill go for 14k running pe8, also might get another spool for pe6 for it as well

[Minimum size spinning reel for 80lb topwater stickbaits/poppers]

Looked at this there is no really clear answer but looking for pointers on what size reel

 

 

Thanks

[Topwater outfit]

What size ATC would you reccomend

looked into the 10k for pe8 but nothing else

[Topwater outfit]

Just looking for help choosing my new topwater outfits,

 

Already own a pe6 and several lighter setups, just wanting help with going for a pe8 and a pe10

 

I see that some people around go for 14k reels for pe8, some 10k and the occasional 18k.

Pe 10 just most likely 18k for large poppers ands stickbaits, wondering what reel under 600ish would do the job

Also looking for what reel for pe 8- stickbait or small poppers same price 600ish

 

Cheers

[Shark Fishing Setup????]

Hi guys, just wondering does anyone have any experience with shark fishing, not looking at any overheads or kayaking baits.

Thinking of either getting a pe8 popping rod and spinfisher 6 10500

Also maybe aswell penn prevail II 12ft 15-37kg with another spinfisher

wondering about braid, capacity, other rods/reels

Cheers

Like a slammer 10500? Mines loaded with 150 lbs braid, absolute beast of a reel. Just be ready for an awesome fight when you hook up also the slammers are very heavy to jig with, but I have used mine for jigging 

Also looked at them but u think a bit heavy to be jigging for a while

Why overhead? Your limited to just live baiting and jigging with an overhead jigging reel, a solid spinning reel like the 18k Certate and Saragossa or 8500 slammer holds

Already own a 8500hs slammer 4 with pe 10 on my gt rod, found that when fishing vertical overhead is better for sheer pulling power and strength, also the samsonfish in my area can be 50kg+ in some circumstances with big sharks and heavy structure so almost thinking of going to pe10

Hi guys,

wanting to jig for kingfish, amberjack, samsonfish and possible doggies,

thinking of going for an Ocea Jigger 4000HG running PE 8 braid on either a Oceans Legacy Pe 5-10 Adrenalin overhead jigging rod or a Shimano Tcurve overhead rod rated to 37kg braid

wondering if this would suit or any other things you want to add

Thanks

Budget?

I'm no expert

Be looking at a 10000 size spin reel, if you're gonna go pe 8-10 probably a stella Or even an ATC vigour which are a load cheaper

Rod wise one of the venom stickbait rodsyI wouldn't buy one without holding it first you want to make sure it's comfortable if you're running 15kg of drag

Budget is not that big of an issue just not wanting to dish out $2000+

…Comfortable running 15kg and higher

How about a second hand 6500 saltinga with pe 10

and 

Saltist Mq 14k with pe 8
