If you can get that combo for $500 it seems a bargain, particularly as Marine Deals has it for $750, and the reel alone at $400!

Ahead of the experts giving some options, what about a Penn Assassin PE 6-8 ($279 at Marine Deals, has Fuji K Guides and looks nicely put together), and match it with a Daiwa BG6500 (very solidly built and the same stated drag as the Saragosa, but retrieves 123cm per crank - nearly up there with the fastest Stella etc). you can get one from Australia for about NZ$220 landed. There's a nice $500 combo.


With their prices, take off 10% Aussie GST which they do at checkout, add back about $20 for the shipping, and a bit more for the exchange rate (cost x 1.12 at the moment). Anglers Warehouse is very reliable.

incidentally, they have that Saragosa for about NZ$270 landed here, way better than the local prices. You may want to support your local store, fair enough.

Similar threads on here have seen a lot of people recommend the Okuma Azores sets at that price level. The big Fin-Nor Lethal also has devotees on the forum.

Thanks, i will look into it. Not seeing that rod on MD though.

Planning a trip to Marlborough Sounds soon want to take a topwater set just in case.

What are my options around the $500 mark Rod & Reel combo.

Looking at Energy concept PE3-6 + Saragossa 10k?
