It was actually a fairly inexpensive set up but could pull serious fish! The rod is a predator XR24 and the reel is a daiwa procasterX 3000 with 15lb suffix braid. The rod and reel without braid would probably set you back about R1400. The first outing on the boat was organised by the people I was staying with and I ended up making friends with the skipper who then took me out for free on a second trip.
Magic,
Thanks
