only the old FI stradic is high ratio. The new are low ratio, as is the saragosa I believe. therefore I'd go the Saltist, allthough 6500h is very large. A 5000h would be my pick, which is still bigger then the 8000 stradic (bout the same as 10K shimano)

what rod are you putting it on willz? reckon getting a good balance is important if you are gonna spend a few hours casting at a time.

The 5000H is actually heavier than the 6500H... think they are the same body just different capacity http://www.daiwa.com/reel/detail.aspx?id=499 The 4500H is lighter, but less drag. |

The Catalina 5000H looks to have great specs for topwater. |

Yep, pretty much the same specs as the Salitiga.
