    Ok. Have a 5000 myself. The reel feels great but the only action it has seen is loosing 2 kingies off the rocks awhile ago. Not the reels fault though. Casts really well and the drag was silk smooth. @Gibo. thought the statue area was in the marine reserve??
    Experience. What you get just after you needed it.

    Took the new Sage One for a lash. It’s Thor’s freaking war hammer. It has horsepower to burn but with a freakishly good amount of presentation. Lined it with a Scientific Angler Amplitude MPX. Great combo. Hawkes Bay wind still owned the day but I’m looking forward to using this rig over summer.

    Nah, the bright orange is backing and the fly line has 3 colour sections to it.
    I like the coloured backing cause it makes me looks cool.

    Do these top water reels run the super slow isolation line wraps like the longcasts?
    What ratio are they?

    Also any saltwater guys run tapered leaders and what is recommended.

    Pretty similar to what I just got at 5.3:1 and 41" per turn.

    Tapered leaders? Im all about the cast at the moment as I am just getting some decent use back out of my shoulder.

    50lb braid, 80lb mono leader, haven’t seen anyone using tapered leaders but there might be?

    Rod rated to 50lb being used with 80lb braid may end in tears
