New rod

Hi guys,

I recently got a Shimano Starlostix 5'9 6-10kg Big Barra,

However i dont exactly know what reel to get with it? Could anyone help me out?? 

Someone on here is selling a Shimano Callisto 100 baitcaster, but again i dont know if it suits it or not?

 

 

Thanks,

Mitch

Callisto is probably a bit small for that rod. Depends what you budget is but I would look at a Calcutta 250 or 400. What are you going to be using it for?
