Re: Shimano game spinning outfit?
I use a shimano ocea gt rod with a Saragossa 2500 but if I had the money and it pains me to say it I would buy a saltiga. This year a game boat out of bermi got smashed on 2 Stella’s reels could not handle the fish but they were big fish well over the norm.

id rather a spin outfit any day than an overhead.
reason i suggested to OP to stick with overheads is because he already has them.
