I personally find overhead easier than spin and better chance of hooking up on the drop. There is pluses and minuses each way
If your fishing the big fish places such as kings/ranfurly this would be a reasonable set but I would look at a specialist rod such as jigstar/JM/synit
If your fishing other places I would go one rod lighter. Big more fun and easier to jig

Yea 400g is pretty heavy. 250g would be what i'd suggest if just starting out and over head as well but that's just personal preference.

Hey Fletch I started with a Stella 20K but honestly it's just too much I now use a Stella 8K PG. It has a massive drag the perfect retrieval 91cm & palladium gears which delivers wicked torque. Doesn't have the line capacity of the 20K but I got 280 Mtrs of 37Kg Diawa Accudepth on mine. Before you buy ask yourself do you need "all that" 20K weight & all. Plus you can look at a lesser weight rod & still get the same results.

Good call PE Pete, i agree - for the rod Fletch, have a look at a Synit - you wont regret it

20k is a big stella mate will be hard on the arms gotta remember you wont get spooled by a king it will reef you first guys catch 40 kilo on 10000 just need that drag which a 10k or 14k has ,get a 20 k if you wana livebait for marlin when your not jigging ,a mate of mine snapped one of those jigrexs not very good rods imo dont know what your budget is but good thing about spin is you can get a spare jm spool loaded with casting braid if you get into stickbaiting all you need is the the one reel and just change between rods works for me
