Spinning Combo
« on: February 08, 2015, 09:33:41 AM »
Hi All . Looking for some advice on a spinning outfit targeting mainly natal snoek. And what braid will you advice as well.
Also don't want to break the bank +_ R2000 for the rod and reel.
Thanks
Bunks

If it is from a boat then shimano trevalla 7ft mh with stradic 4000/5000 and 20lb goosen or power pro braid you need that softer tipped rod or the hooks tear out of the snoek's mouth trust me i learned the hard way.
