Cameron, tough question on a popping website. Only John Ashley thinks that a Torsa can be used as a popping reel!

Give me a few days and I'll measure one I have at home when I get back to Sydney next week. Let me know if you want one!

Cheers - I'd appreciate it.  I realise the site is called GT Popping, but I did post question under the "Jigging Tackle and Techniques" forum.
Regards,
Cameron

Hi Cam ,

Long time I do not hear from you , still at Charter's Tower ? 

Itr's a nice reel you are after and if you buy all the drag cams , it's going to cost you plenty but then the reel will become all purpose ( LRS , Chunk , White Marlin , #12 Mono filament , #6 Light Line , Kingfish , #20 and #50 Bottom fishing versions ) . 

Sorry can't help you with the dimensions you are after but the left side plate is smaller than the right side plate , this I know because a PNG based friend use Torsa 20 for jigging using PE6 line .

I have got a mate that uses a Torsa 30 for jigging and loves thing. Reckons the reel has got such tight tolerances it feels like it could handle anything. Now is getting a Torsa 30 for "Light" jigging.
Horses for courses I guess.

I find Torsa 30 a bit too wide for jigging and if I were to be in the market , wud choose Torsa 20 anytime although I wud sacrifice a bit on line capacity for mixed use .

I have a '20' and love it, it is very well made, gets nearly 500 m of PE5 on it. It's not light but not too heavy, a very versatile reel.
