Hey Guys,

I?ve never had a saltwater spinner and I am looking for a good. economical 30# spinning outfit.

Any rod, reel, blank recommendations would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Dave

Hey, I looked at the Twin Power here, they look nice and they have eight models here but they run from $445 to $550!

Why would you not get the Quantum Cabo CSP70 or 80 for 30#? Do you have one?

I actually have a CPS40 with 50# spectra and 25-30# topshots for inshore and islland fishing, but for offshore I would the 60. IMO, the 70 and the 80 could go 40# even 50# with 65#spectra backing.
At $200, not a bad deal. . .

I just watched a tv show where the guy was catching 250# tuna on a spinning rod and reel. Wish O knew what reel they were using.

I too have been looking at a new spinner ...the Cabo 80 ($200+) is a contender, But the Shimano Saragosa at 1400 and 1800 size is a consideration ($299).

It really depends on your target fish...

Good luck...

How many yards of 50# spectra do you have on there? I'm interested in the same reel & spectra set up.

If you're interested in the Cabo SP40, I have about 250yds+/- of 50# Spiderwire Stealth and alternate between 10yds 25# or 30# Flouro. Good stuff for inshore and island fishing for the 3 Bs and yellows. I could probably yank on some school size tunas as well.
