I have a pro angler 14 and fishing the bay. I usually bring 3 combos (Shimano reel size): a 1000 for jigging, a 3000 fishing bridge/pylons, and a 10000 just in case there are something really big (tarpon, big snook, cobia... etc.) comes around.

But if you are going get another PA, that will not help much. lol

Hey guys, I am currently getting rid of most of my casting rods for more of an "all around" MH casting rod. For an all around MH rod I would look no further than a G Loomis MBR783 GLX. It can do many things well. GLXs are awesome. I landed a 50# blackdrum (saltwater) with a 12# walleye GLX; a 22.5"...

So rods do have 1st year production issues just like cars. I was thinking picking up one but will wait a little while.

The color sure stand out. I'm not sure which model (old vs new), but a friend bought three sticks. Two broke while casting; the last one sold.

+1 for this great reel.
