New spinning reel?

#1 Post by markj »

Hi guys, looking for a new spinning for tackling bass, pollock, sea trout etc.. from the shore.
Something for rough and clean, also 2 spools, braid & mono.

Was looking for something in the Shimano range, any suggestions?

use a baitrunner 8000 myself, braid on one spoll, 10lb mono on the other and bought an extra spool loaded with lighter line again.use it for everything - light boat work, beach, rocks spinning etc.
Not the BigPhil from Irish Angler mag, I'm the original, i swear!!!!
