The Trinidad series is the up spec of Torium. 
If you are going to jig alot then spend the money on it.  Get a TN40N, Ocea Jigger or a Stella pain and simple. 
You ask any person that jigs alot and the will tell you to get the best reels available for the job, which are usually the top end Shimano and Daiwa reels.

If you can get the anti reverse sorted can't see any probs, looks and pretty simple and easy enough to DIY, would be wary of using one otherwise, seen what a failed torium anti reverse does someones thumb and it aint pretty.Dead ]]> Wed, 26 Aug 2009 10:24:12 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=44396&PID=629632&title=shimano-torium-16#629632 <![CDATA[Shimano Torium 16 : Must be the void before Marlin...]]> https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=44396&PID=629631&title=shimano-torium-16#629631 Author: Moocha

to expensive mate, I made the mistake of getting rid of the trini 20 now trying to replace it.

thanks for the link Kaveman I wonder if this has been done to this reel already.
