You've got a strong brute PE10 rod there Sam......and it's an all rounder rod to use with poppers and stickbaits. I use a stella 18000 and sometimes a 20000 stella on this same rod, so using a Saltiga 7000 will be OK. Using the mastered bomb 135 cup at 135g will be just perfect.
This rod would be at a starting lure weight range of 100g stickbait at a minimum to say a gamma 160g excluding hooks, with a popper weight of about 150 - 160g but don't forget your porridge in the morning for energy !.
You'll probably cast further with the FCL 81ext.......still a brute of a rod though, hang on tight.

Leo
