Check out the Accurate Bx range.  Well worth a look.

Agree with the Accurate ... also Talica 12 or 16 are well worth the look... however, never tried the JM

If you only want to fish 50lb then the TAC8 takes about 350m of DSBB PE4/55lb, no need to go to the bigger sizes. There is a single speed over in the FS section of the site too at present.

jigging master powerspell pe5? anyone used one of these?

Yewie we have just recieved a Jigging Master order including Rods, Reels, Jigs and much more but no PE 5's! haha. The PE 5 and 5 narrow is a reel that we predominatley stock whilst we get the large sambo aggregations offshore down this neck of the woods. We can get them for you though. Another reel to perhaps consider would be the Avet MXJ 5.8. It has a spool width of 35mm and plenty of get up and go.

Cheers

Out of all those reels nothing will come close to the powerspell , accurate and talica's and my powerspells are indestructable and have the duel docking drag system and best of all they are fully blinged out straight out of the box ;) hahahahaha.... talica is also a very nice reel though .

Go the power spell you will not be dissapointed !

yes that is true tony but jiggingmaster also do a "mute " series which is silent

thanks for the replies guys, looks like i may have to go the Jigging Master!

Blake, i will wait to hear how Mike goes with the monster spool but can you please provide me with prices for the 25000 size plus the power handles and also price for the PE5 reel.

Cheers Yewie

Sure Yewie, Ill shoot through a PM when ive added it all up tomorrow.

Hey Yewie if you decide to go with the powerspell just have a good play with it in the shop and make sure you happy with the gear ratio/line retrieval , they only have one complaint against them and thats there painfully slow . But depending on what depth your fishing and if you like to winch fish up they are super grunty reels and have no other complaints against them ..

cheers fishfish

Yeah gotta be careful not to upset the sponsors, but I did find the gearing a little low, and the ticking a little irritating.

Really the PS reels may have been ok, but personally I found both a really long arm, and a really low year too much. Sure you can winch anythbing up, but you can;t spin with the low gear and the big loops your hand does with the long handle.

The low speed of the Powerspell rules that out as a replacement for me. The Trinidad has a 6.2:1 ratio and I wouldn't want to go much lower than that and I like the shorter handle.

I like a reel that can do more than one thing, the PS seems like it's only suitable for jigging. I might go for a Talica or maybe a Stella 10 instead.

The Powerspell does have a slower gear ratio than that of the Trinidad and the like. At 4.0:1 its not aiming to be the quickest reel in the market, But does keep up with the most powerfull reels in the market place. When using reels with 6.2:1 gear ratio's for general bottom bouncing and jigging there is always that initial inertia when turning the handle. Some people dont mind this and preffer to be able to crank their lead/Jigs up quickly. For myself I feel as though you are making your arm work harder than you should. When using lower geared reels it eliminates the inertia and gives you more low down torque for cranking jigs and lead. Much the same as using 1st gear in your car to start driving. When using the Powerspell reels with a properly filled spool you will retrieve more than enough line per turn of the handle, More so with the PE5N as it has a taller spool there for retrieving more line per turn of the handle. The ticking noise is simply the Double dog anti reverse doing its thing, Some people dont like this and now Jigging Master are doing "Muted Versions". In the end you have a reel that is Super strong, Reliable, Smooth and able to be effectivley used even when it has been fully submerged in salt water. Ive been in the industry for just shy of 5 years and find the Powerspell to be one of the nicest allround overhead reels on the market.

Everone on this forum has the opportunity to offer constructive criticism on this forum Till so no one is upset

Ill PM you soon Yewie with all the info.

Cheers Blake

 That is silent, cheaper and quicker, but not too quick.

It also has plenty of grunt.

I am sure there is a reason, I just don't know it.

There is no denying the Talica is an awesome reel, We sell them instore.

As mentioned for those that dont like the clicking noise the strong Double dog system makes, Than there is the option of a Muted series, Many dont mind the noise just like myself but the option is there.

The Powerspell boasts more drag pressure and after I personally used both reels out on the water, I preffer to use the Powerspell for a days fishing. I did like the Talica though. As mentioned we sell both items instore so this isnt a biased opinion. This is purely what I think after using both products on the water. Everyone is free to their own opinion.

Your always welcome to come instore to check them out if you havnt already.

Cheers

 I'm sure smirky will get one in up there even if you don't buy it, he has looked after me every time I've walked in his shop.

I agree with Blake, each to their own but Ive never had a problem with lower ratio reels just when I've used some higher ratio versions. The low down torque/crank of the Jigging Master Powerspells reels are ideal for the fishing I do!

I have several Powerspell reels in my own collection and once filled with braid and used out on the ocean I dont have an issue with a AR dog clicker noise as its making it the strongest reel so all's good!

Many of our keen regulars and many FW members dont own one JM powespell they have up to 4 of them and as mentioned the drag pressure is silky smooth and bullshit powerfull reel. The reel keeps on punishing fish and we dont get the returns/waranty claims with these reels when compared to some other big name brands!

The JM Powerspell mute version have only a few colours available from what I was told a while ago and when speaking to JM Australia he said around Australia there wasnt many requests but yes we can certainly order in. As for the Talica its a great reel and one we always stock, drop Blake a PM if you have any enquiries!

ive seen ryan land sum great fish on his jm reels and a sweet reel indeed.....can recomend for sure

how did you go ryan on the super deep fish a few days ago?...weather look'd awesum spewin works getn in the way atm
