 the pencil instrument is rated pe5 shimano caranx kaibutsu and more than capable of doing the job, works SB's awesome and has a little more bend in it than the heavier model, my prefered choice would be the lighter model. ]]> Tue, 04 Jan 2011 15:40:21 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=58819&PID=874324&title=stradic-6-or-8000-and-rod#874324 <![CDATA[Stradic 6 or 8000 and rod?? : Reel:get the 8000 its lighter...]]> https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=58819&PID=874298&title=stradic-6-or-8000-and-rod#874298 Author: hardstickbaiter

Reel:get the 8000 its lighter and has a bigger capacity then the 6000.managed to fit on 200m of 80lb whiplash on mine.

Rod:dont no if you want to spend a bit more money and get the shimano caranx kaibutsu long cast whitch is a PE6-8.They are $640 but can whip out a popper and stickbait far enough.
I use these two as a combo for stickbaiting and popping off the rocksfor kings .Does the job well

Yeah I wouldn't go too heavy on a long rod for kings personally, more fun letting it run a bit on a 8000 reel, more fun and saves your back.]]> Fri, 22 Oct 2010 15:18:55 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=58819&PID=840522&title=stradic-6-or-8000-and-rod#840522 <![CDATA[Stradic 6 or 8000 and rod?? : What about a VAN STAAL 802 2 Piece...]]> https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=58819&PID=840435&title=stradic-6-or-8000-and-rod#840435 Author: camdog

PE5 is equivalent to 60-70lb braid(depending on braid manufacturer) so all good fishiThumbs Up Offshore makes nice rods but havent tried the popping models. seems like a good price too.]]> Fri, 22 Oct 2010 12:08:09 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=58819&PID=840410&title=stradic-6-or-8000-and-rod#840410 <![CDATA[Stradic 6 or 8000 and rod?? : Wouldn&#039;t that be a pretty...]]> https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=58819&PID=840403&title=stradic-6-or-8000-and-rod#840403 Author: fish i
