Rod - Trophy Hunter Topwater Rod
Trophy Hunter Topwater Rods have been meticulously designed by fishing icon Michael Bonnici in a quest to create stickbait rods comparable in quality and performance to the highest end rods available in the market without the 4 figure price tag. The 838 model is this first model in this range and has been specifically designed for targeting Tuna, Kingfish, Spanish Mackerel and Wahoo.
Specs: 2pc / 8'3" / Line PE 6-8 / Lure Weight 80-140g / Max Drag 15kg
Reel - Daiwa 21 Saltist MQ Spin Reel
With a brand-new single piece aluminium Monocoque (MQ) body, the new Saltist MQ reel is now better equipped than ever to take on the rigors of Australian saltwater fishing and the hard fighting fish that call Australia home.
Arguably one of Daiwa’s most famous features, Magseal combines with the MQ body to make Saltist MQ one of the best protected reels from the harsh environment Daiwa has ever produced. The single piece Monocoque (MQ) body houses a larger diameter Tough Digigear transferring all of that power delivered through the handle to your line, ultimately stopping those fish in their tracks.
Specs: Gear Ratio 5.7 / 630g / 6BB (1CRBB); 1RB / 15kg Drag / Capacity PE 6/ 300m
Fully spooled with 80lb Line
