One Lure, One Reel, & One Rod - Just ONE!

[Ben Rivers]

Guys,

If money wasn't an option, and you could only buy/take 1 lure, Reel, & Rod to a deserted location - What would it be?

My Choice:

Lure: Big Kong 200
Reel: Stella 18000
Rod: The Monster Hunter 79XH

Just a bit of fun

Cheers Ben

Not sure - I don't have the rod yet

Tough one this....

I'd probably say:

Reel: Stella 10000SW with JM Monster 16000 Spool with PE 8

Rod: Carpenter DJ83MH ( Its an awesome long casting rod, and can work most reasonable sized lures well, and I own one already, and love it )
 
Lure: Tough one this, I battle to pick 10 lures, never mind just 1!!!! But I guess I'd probably go with old faithful in the form of an Ulua 120 or 150... I know not as glamourous as all the super high priced options out there, but its an incredibly easy lure to work and fish, and has caught me plenty of fish, and thats what counts... It also handles most sea conditions really well... Second choise would be a Bigfoot 140 probably because it too seems to just work all the time...

the answer to this is "not very far". It's made for significantly heavier lures.

How far does the MH79XH throw the seafrog 120?

[Brandon Khoo]

this is an interesting topic - really makes you think! 
I expect we can assume the location has GTs there?
My immediate reaction was to go with a Gamma as the lure but it would be great if the location you went to had really rough broken water where you couldn't swim a surface stickbait effectively. Are we supposed to know anything about the location or is it blind?

If blind, I think I'd probably go with a MH80H, a Stella 18000 and a popper. I'd be happy with any of an Orion ConoCono 150, a Fullscale Kong 200 or a Sea Frog 170.
