I'm a Penn guy primarily, deep water fluke Penn Mag 525 with braid, back water Diawa coastal also with braid (10lb ), fluking with a bobber Penn Prion, Stripers in the bay Mag with 25lb mono, Squidder with mono, also sometime use a Penn Liveliner.
These are my go to reels, the nice thing about these reels is that they are excellent boat reels and even better surf reels so you only need to buy 1 reel for both situations.What kind of reel do u guys use say for flounder and what kind for stripers fishing from a boat I want to see what the majority of u guys are using before I buy something not sure with all the brands
Shimano calcutta 400 in the bay,shimano charter special around the hook and beach fronts,penn jig masters when heavier weight is needed or jigging larger jigs,Penn 4/0 wire line rigs for bunker spoonsWhat kind of reel do u guys use say for flounder and what kind for stripers fishing from a boat I want to see what the majority of u guys are using before I buy something not sure with all the brands
I'll second this choice.......:thumbsup:If you want just one for both-I would suggest a Penn Int 965 or 975. Cost is a couple hundred but your good.
Shimano Stradic, 4000 for a spinner.
Avet sx for the boat!
