Nope not this trip maybe for tuna and marln next year but things move slow here so start now and take me about 2 to 3 months to get it organised due to not having much free time

Yes am aware of that.
thats why i struggled on the tuna i got cause there was no level wind on it. went to the shop quicksmart and got myself some entry level spin outfits for this sorta purpose, which is why i suggested them to you as well. up to you how much $$$ you want to spend though.
Have you looked up pld 30 on ebay.
Its ok as a 15kg overhead reel and has level wind.
Can pick them up for about $80

Never done that before
I haven’t either. It’s on the list of things to do.
