Thread: advice on king reel

Hey guys thanks for welcoming in to the forum sorry for being new and I apologize for any stupid questions but I wanna get a king rod and reel and never fished for the big boys before but I was checking into the shimano tld20 and was curious if this would be good for that. Thanks again everyone!!

Probably ok for trolling off shore but need spinning for casting on pier.Something in the range of 5000 to 10000 class reel with around 300 yards of 15 to 17lb mono.The 8 or 9ft roods are the most used also needs to be medium heavy not to stiff for throwing frozen cigar minnows.

Thanks man I had no idea told u I was new haha any recommendations??

The Battle combos from Penn at J&M Tackle on Canal Street are pretty reasonable.They have all different sizes.Everybody seems to like the reels.

check on Pensacola Fishing Forum under the "Fishing Gear and Tackle" section. They have some good used combos from experienced users selling at a lot better price for reason of upgrades... just my 2 cents.

Aight man I will look into them and I'm always in j and m when I'm down just two hours away from gulf shores so I font get down there often and I will check into Penn battle combos. Thanks everyone

J & M has 7' and 8' Profile rods that that you can match up with a spinning reel that will hold 300 +/- yards of 15 to 17# mono or mono backed with braid. Tell the folks at J & M how and what you want to target and they will show the options you should consider. All kinds of combs to choose from too.

Thanks fin I went to j and m and I felt like a kid in candy store and would love to meet with some of y'all and fish with y'all haha y'all seem like great people!!!

several good rods and reels for sale on the forum as well…
