drwxr Posted August 8, 2008 Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 what reel should i get together with my 10' convergence, for salmon fishing from piers, also would like to use this rod as my pike and bass rod casting lures from shore. my friend just got me a shimano saros 2500 from US, what do you guys think, will it do the job or should i sell it and get something else was also thinking getting daiwa regal 3000 instead. but dont want anything big, dont want to get too tired casting for 3 or more hours. cheers.

bassjnkie Posted August 8, 2008 Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 The Daiwa Tierra 2500 or 3000, I have 4 of the 2500 for match fishing carp and love them. Very light, well built, and small. The best part it's a Daiwa!! Daniel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
douG Posted August 8, 2008 Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 Spinning reels for me is Daiwa. Agree with DM. On the other hand, some might suggest a round baitcasting reel, like an Abu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danbo Posted August 8, 2008 Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 Daiwa 3000 for balance & line capacity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrego7 Posted August 9, 2008 Report Share Posted August 9, 2008 I bought an Okuma VS45 for roughly $160 back in may and it busted on me last month. I chose it because of the 5 year warranty it holds. It cost me roughly $40 to ship it to Ontario, Ca(with return shipping). I couldn't get a hold of Rockey's Tackle(authorized repairman). Tried numerous times. All in all it's a pretty descent reel just the service from Okuma is horrible. Just thought you should know that if you were looking into Okuma.
