sparky is on a distinguished road
Multiplier

Which should I buy?
Not been using multipliers for beach casting for too long, but getting the knack of it and my casting is better than it was with a fixed spool

Abu 7500?
525 or 535 mag?
7HT

Currently using a abu 6500
Opinions appreicated...

Re: Multiplier

We call the multipliers "baitcasters" or depending on size "heavy duty sport reels" and the fixed spools "Spinning reels" is that your equivilant

Re: Multiplier

The old 7000`s are the best ones,made in sweden with super quality components,ideal for light boat work or uptiding.

Re: Multiplier

7000`s are great on the rougher beaches,the 6500`s are great for the clean stuff.7000 will be ok on the wrecks too,depending what your fishing for...in fact they are a great all round reel...
