King Outfit. Any Suggestions?

[Wigg]

After being amped up by a fishing DVD I am going thru my gear and feel it is time to upgrade some of it.

I will be fishing out of my yak around the Northern Beaches and do have a downrigging bomb.

What sort of reel and line is going to serve me best?

I have 2 Abu 7000 s (15 and 20lb) that have served me well in the past.

I have a TLD 25 combo with 35lb that hasnt been christened yet.

I am thinking of seeing Tony for a rod and buying a Baitrunner 6500.

I am very reluctant to use braid on the overheads for fear of cutting off a finger or two.

I am planning on chasing the 80cm plus models.

What does everybody recommend?

Cheers

if using the downrigger and a strong overhead, my suggestion is to fit a couple of pontoons to the yak so you dont get pulled in!

Hi Wigg.

Regarding the Braid. Go to Chemist shop and buy a couple leather Fingerstalls.Stick one on the thumb, and away you go.
