I'm finally going to do it... - California Fishing

Wahoo! · 07-12-2004, 12:37 PM

I'm going to start upgrading all of my gear. Right now I fish some decent mid level stuff, but it doesn't give me the performance I really want. So, I'm going to start replacing 1 rod/reel combo per month. This month is the 25# setup. I'm getting a Daiwa SA30T and a custom Calstar 700L. For those of you that are interested, I'm going to also be selling off a lot of my old tackle since I won't have much need for it. I'll start putting stuff up for sale on the site in a couple weeks when I get a chance to sort through things.

No problem Zepp. I'll post my tackle on the buy/sell board when I get organized. I'll also try to send out PMs to everyone I know is interested.

i am upgrading my reels now to i just got a penn 975 lever drag and next for my 20 pound rig i am going to get the new avet two speed that is for 20-25 pound class line

you'll like the 975. I have the 965 loaded with 12 or 15lb line and have caught soo many fish on it. Plus it cast great and has a good drag system. I've caught Albies - Corbina on it.

i got that reel in september time and the first trip i took it on i caught my first yellowfin tuna on it with 15 pound line but i have caught many fish on that like 15 pound steelhead schooling yellow tail 15 pound jackpot sheephead and that reel performed flawlessly

Yeh, me too. Let me know via PM when you do it. i like to have xtra rigs around for guests and what not, since I don't let other people use my babies.
