Overhead Jig Reel
Submitted by jayce on Mon, 2013-09-02 22:01
Hey Guys
Just doing a bit of research on a overhead jig reel and was looking for some oppinions. I have a Extreme Fishing WA overhead rod that currently has a tyrinos 30 on it. As you can imaging that isnt overly comfortable to jig with. I am hoping to put a lighter narrower reel on it that will handle PE5.
I have a Stella 5000 with PE3 on a JM rod aswell. that i mainly use. so just looking for a little heavier back up for Sambos and Kings.
Cheers

Torsa 20 or torsa 30 still going to be smaller thatn the tyrnos and they are bullett proof had mine now for 6 years and still going strong they are well worth the coin

Accurate
Have a look at an Accurate Boss Extreme overhead. They are small but hold shitloads of line. They have a twin drag system and you can crank the drag up so the fish can pull you out of the boat. I have the Boss 600 size reel.

Unreal reel. Soo light and strong. Love mine to bits.

Ocea Jigger 4000 for me.Holds
Ocea Jigger 4000 for me.
Holds 550m of PE5 so can double for a deep dropper if you like the pain.
When asked by a non-fisherman 'how many fishing rods do you really need?' the correct answer is either:
n+1 (where n is the number of fishing rods you currently own); or
n-1 (where n is the number of fishing rods which would cause your significant other to dump you.
