Have my new 5500 expedition on order, I am totally sucked in to all the hype about these new reels and are looking forward to testing it on some kings. The 5500 just seems like the perfect size for kingfish and if you believe what Alan hawk is writing they will be pretty damn good. On a side note, anyone wanna but a used 5000 saltiga, not gonna need it soon?:)
Cheers Mark
