Sambo Jigging - Got one!

Finally got out for my first jiggy jig on SW along with DazSamFishing and Honsu Chin today. Unfortunately they weren't very hungry and it was hard to excite them but I still managed my first 2 jigged sambos! Showed the boys how its done :P Got one decant one and one smaller one and lost 2. Awesome fun, definately hooked!

Thanks to honsu and daz for all your help and advice. Got a nice tan from all that bling that was shining on deck too!

I got the 18000f and it went well on the sambos today! Definately a decant reel for the price. Looks nice too, almost fits in with all the shiney stellas and saltigas! :)

yeh the smaller 8000f should

yeh the smaller 8000f should be fine for what you want to do. 30-40lb. Other reels maybe the Stradic 8000 or Daiwa's new Saltist/Seagate 4500.
