Get Carpenter EP model , this is an all purpose rod that can handle chugger and stick bait just as well .

Dear Jon
I've seen many anglers here speaking highly of the endless passion especially the EP82/38 and the 85/36
A friend of mine highly recommends the 86/40 as well saying it will mostly be the one rod I will not leave
Saying he can even get very nice action of Baby Runboh with it , and I guess it can work medium cupped poppers to 150gm or so as from what I understand the 82/38 can work 125gm poppers nicely

Which model do you think suits my application better

That was my original plan, to get a Monster Hunter 80H, and a light pe6 setup for stickbaits
But the problem is that the MH80H/pe10 will be an overkill for the fish here(rarely gets over 30kg), so I was preferring pe6-8, the coral viper seemed like a nice choice, but still it can't work CF GT# 150gm which will be my ceiling, I which there was something just between the CV 79/40 and the MH80H, DJ83MH fits this criteria to a great extent, but it is unobtainable

Brandon Khoo:
what is a CF GT#?

Simon Bomholt:
Hi. I use PE 8 mostly on my mh80

Craftbait GT3
short + mistype =  :o

Brandon, will the Ripple Fisher GT79Reversal fit my crietria?
I understand that casting distance won't be comparable to the DJ83MH
