new rod and reel

I am thinking of a new rod and reel , i am not a complete novice but no expert . My fishing is occasional but intend to do a bit more . I will mainly be fishing the solent and dorset coast .

I have my eye on a Penn 525 super mag extra reel i think its called so i am wondering what rod to go with this.

Thanks

Paul

Re: new rod and reel

depends on the cash you wanna spend mate but a clean ground rod of 13 foot by any of the top manufacturers will suit ! I personally stick to Daiwas including reels but thats personal choice

Re: new rod and reel

good alternative to the 525 mag is the torium 14.

i've had penns and to say they have a habit of biting you every session is an understatement. switched to a torium and love it...just as fast retrieve, smoother drag and not as agricultural as the 525.

Re: new rod and reel
