Hi Ludo

I have a set up which is exactly that - Stella/Twinpower 5000, PE2 or PE3, lures up to 60 grams. I match all that with a Blue Sniper 77/3 and really enjoy the lightness and tip sensitivity of the rod.

Hi Ludo,

I need to preface this with the fact that I'm no expert but since I've just gone through a similar process thought I'd pass it on. 

I had a look at those Yamaga blank rods as well as a Smith 70mh, again to pair up with a 5000SW, and they are all very nice.

I ended up going a slightly different route and got the Hot's 70mh which is 4/6 rated rod but very sensitive and even lighter than both the Yamaga Blank rods and the Smiths. I intend to put a 6000 spool on the 5000SW as an option to be able to fit 300m of PE3 and fish slightly larger lures than 60g. 

Hope this helps.

Regards,


Trevor
