Topwater Caranx Ignobilis: Giant Trevally (GT) > Tackle & Techniques
NEW SALTIGA EXPEDITION REELS
Luke Wyrsta:
Reviews are just reviews - keep your pants on. The true test is on water performance over an extended period of time.
Definitely looks like a massive specification and technological improvement and then some - which was essential to keep up with the market.
Joel Leong:
Does the wider top spool puts more resistance to the pe line when casting ?
Thus reducing asting distance as compared to a stella 18000?
Dan Hanon:
BTW, who is Alan Hawk, a reel repair man using a pseudonym? Anyone know anything about him?
Arnout Weber:
Good evening,
So which model do i have to take for jigging:
the 6500 model?
Best regards,
Arnout.
Trevor Skinner:
Dan,
He's an American who does a whole series of spinning reel reviews and then rates them. I'm not sure of his CV but he seems to have a strong engineering background and is also a keen fisherman. His value is that he is supposedly not connected to any of the manufacturers so he is unbiased. His views are fairly well respected.
I, personally, take his reviews with a pinch of salt because I find them heavy on the engineering and light on the fishing but I'd be in a minority.
Regards,
Trevor
