Hon-Su what did you replce it with mate?
Hon-Su Chin:
Well...less than a year ago, I started my own business wholesaling fishing gear from Malaysia and Taiwan.
As such found the perfect rod for me.
Its a Hearty Rise (Etuoh's branch) Jig Force PE 1.5 - 3.0 5'8" jig max 120gm.

Digging up an old thread! Need abit of info on the ryogas. Intend to get one for light jigging and the occasional casting. Tossing up between the normal or the bay jigging, have no access to a pluton so its between the 2 ryogas. How is the ryoga for jigging(will get the jigging handle if I chose the ryoga) and how is the bay jigging for casting? Ideally want one that is more versatile. All help and advice appreciated!
Sam Beeby:
Does the ryoga have any cast control at all ie centrifugal? or is it just thumb and spool side load adjustment.
thanks

Hey Guys,
The Ryoga Bay Jigger doesn't have cast control, whereas I believ the regular Ryoga/Pluton does....
If you are looking for a more versatile reel, get the regular Ryoga, and get the jigging hadle and RCS knob for it... the Ryoga Bay Jigger claims 10 kilo max drag, which is insane, and the Ryoga regular has 6,5 Kilos....
On a reel this size, when are y9ou ever going to be fishing more than 6 kilos???
Saying that, I love my Bay Jigger... Rat Kings and Couta are an absolute blast on it matched to a JM 100.... and its going to get brutalised next week uop in Mozambique fishing jigs, Slow Jigs and deep water plastics too.... Can't wait, hoping to break the 15 kilo barrier on it, maybe with a smallish Amberjack, or GT, and hopefully some decent Jobfish as well...
