Sam1414 Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 Hi guys, new poster and relatively new to fishing but I have purchased a Daiwa Saltist X 9ft 6 rod max PE 5 and was wondering if a saragosa 6000 spooled with Ocea PE 3(58lb) braid would be suitable for chasing salmon and small to medium kingies/Samson fish/Mack’s over here in WA? also want to buy a good 20lb all round setup for plastics and boat use. Was thinking a 4000 reel and 6’6” to 7’ rod 4-8kg? Preferably Shimano and any budget up to $600 or so thanks for the advice - i am currently on halfway through a 4 week swing and need something to look foward to buy when I get home haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirvin21 Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 6000 saragosa should be fine for that for a 20lb setup I'd go a shimano Nasci 3000 that will leave you extra $$ for a rod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juicy233 Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 Nasci and Stradic would be what I would go for and possibly a shimano tcurve 7'2 4-8kg rod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlbertW Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 I would say a stradic fm paired with a rod like the tcurve or jewel, the zodias is also very nice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james Cutler Posted June 26 Share Posted June 26 My Ten cents. 4000 reels all round. Have a look at the Penn slammer 4500hs reel. I have on top reel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pickles Posted June 26 Share Posted June 26 Hey @Sam1414, although I agree with all the above a Saragossa (5000 or 6000) are solid, inexpensive and bullet proof reels. Another good option is a Daiwa BG in 5000 size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
