Re: DAIWA BG 8000
tomorrow night isn't much good for gummy this time of the month but the
wind looks ok so might give it a crack , itching to give them a run on the
skate that will give them a work out .

Cool. I did the mandatory lick test (yeah, sounds weird but at least I don't brush my toes and sniff the fingers...) in store and thought it felt like graphite...

Re: DAIWA BG 8000
well i went over the beach and the conditions were great pity it's the wrong time of the month
but i did manage 1 gummy , and i am surprised at the cranking power of these reels even though
they have a ratio of 5.7:1 but i will say they wasted there time with the shitty clicker on the spool
i can't even hear it when at the rod let alone when a fish grabs it and i'm 10' away because the surf
just drowns it out it is so quiet .
back at the boat

Re: DAIWA BG 8000
well i went over the beach last night but no gummies but i did manage 5 school sharks all under size
now one thing is it looks like i am going back to mono as braid sucks donkys off the beach , because there
is no stretch you have trouble holding bottom and i use a 7oz sinker , just have a look at these conditions
just about perfect 2' swell and that bar is only 50 - 60 yards out so easy to cast over . look at the rod on the left it isn't out yet but the one on the right is and this what happens with a small
wave , with mono a bend that big would only happen with a 6' to 7' wave . any way the sun set was worth it .
