Tackling up for Garrick

[Gerhard]

I would take my 10ft H Exage spinning rod with 8000 Stradic loaded with 50lbs Saltiga braid.

I would not go heavier than 2.5 or 3 oz plugs or spoons.

You can still punch them a long way and they are light enough to get good action on the spoon and the plug easy on the surface.

The rod and reel combo is strong enough to give a garrick some good storng cough mixture...

The P6 is rated to 6oz+ bait and at 14feet its a bit heavy to stand casting all day

Yip if you have ever seen a guy catch 2 shad and be tired, ask Brad to show you! That is some heavy tackle for constant casting I think...

Yes, but if the Garricks are 20m from shore you shouldn't be casting all day ... 

he might be Jakes remember anything under 20kgs doesnt count for him, and its going to be hard to get a 20+ Garrick from the side 

20kg+ ... now can you imagine him trying to land that on his vengence off the island ...

Sheesh I leave you okes alone for a while and the chirps come wild! The garrick come close but can be very shy when committing to the plug so you may just be having quite a few throws before getting a hook up.

In that case I'll go for my Ultimate edibles spinning or multiplier setup ... Shimano 110H either in spinning or multiplier format. Spinning to be paired with a quality 4500 size real, something like the Daiwa Exceler Oceanos 4500J or in the multiplier option with a Daiwa 30, Shimano 16 or the Penn equivalent.

Jakes, that set-up will enable the angler to take on any size edible and if you are spinning fit you can go on for the whole day.
