Hey gang,
I'm looking for any recommendations for a fixed spool reel with suitable guts and line capacity (braid probably) for Common skate from the shore.
Significant birthday (60)
next year, and a trip to attempt to catch a shore caught common skate is definitely on the list.
After some brief internet research, my shortlist consists of the Daiwa BG8000, maybe the Fin-Nor Megalite 1000 ??? and that's it.
Not looking to spend mega bucks as this will be a one off purchase (Then it's back to Chesil etc...). Budget probably about £150.
