I balloon whith a tld 50
I balloon whith a tld 50 with 24 kg mono and 150lb wind on for help around ledges cliffs ect
20 lb stradic will be great for tailor
my only advise would be get a reel to run 50lb braid on and a strong glass rod to fish for pinks and mulloway round the ledges and beaches
and a good pair of rock shoes if yor fishing ledges at wageo
i cant help with exy but can help with most things for wageo
good luck!

Thanks callum I have a 12 ft beach rod that should handle the mullaway and pinkies I just read a few articles and they say to use slightly bigger reels for the tailor but that's cool will the tyrno 30 with 15 kg mono be too small it's just a easier size for down here and I can use on the boat

Just before the ban mate,
Just before the ban mate, start of summer good time for jumbo tailor mullas pinks and trevs round the rough country palagics may have gone north depending on water temps and currents but ya never no
Tailor- mate endless spots for tailor its hard to stay in a spot and work it when just over there looks just as good halco roostas, slide swim minnows, bullchops, white lead head jigs round the reef (cheap to loose)
When you get a tailor theres the perfect bait for your mulloway or maybe another suprize capture use the moons and tides and you'll come up trumps.

the gosa 6000sw is much
the gosa 6000sw is much bulkier and much stronger than the stradic 6000fj, i would be running 40lb to 50lb braid over there, also have a long topshot of leader.
Dream fish to catch:
Giant herring.
Cobia.

The Stradic is a much better
The Stradic or even sustains are a much better reel in my opinion, great track record in durability compared to the 'gosa, stick to 30lb to maintain your casting distance, be good for macks, tuna, cobia etc, as well as snapper, medium trevs etc, if you're looking at GTs in Exmouth you will need a larger outfit again.

Yeah I have a few smaller
Yeah I have a few smaller stradics and a sustain love them just though the gosa are a more heavy duty reel yeah not looking at buying a outfit for gts I'd love one but don't really have the money and would never use it again or at least not regularly enough for the expense
