Rep Power: 4 | RE: Wat is your dream reel and rod??? Jason , Stella 20000PG is not an ideal reel for popping due to low gear ratio , Stella 10000HG is a better choise . Sportfisherman . |

My Mood: Rep Power: 6 | Hi Jason, Vincent I think was refering to the Carpenter OH56 MH-S. There are 2 spinning models the heavier version is the OH55 XH-S. Can ask Chris T about the performance, he has used one. I recall him say something like he could "feel the power at the fore grip" :P Can also ask Chris how the Carpenter compared to the J/M. cheers, mark |

Ya my dream set for deep sea jigging purposes. For common jigging, I use my existing O-Jigger 3000P or FreamsJ. This baja special is proven for those giant tuna that will run deep while hook up. So lower ratio provided more cranking power and the drag can goes up to 28lbs.  But body need to train for more stamina first.Ya, this reel looks more for trolling & bottom, so if I owned this reel then I can do 3 jobs in 1 reel. Jigging, Trolling & Bottom...  | |
