Steep Point Gear Suggestions
Hey guys so I'm heading up to steep point for the first time towards the end of august with my uncles and such for 3-4 days and I need to get some new gear for fishing up there. Winds permiting will be ballooning as well as spinning and such. Was thinking bout going for the 9ft lemax President royal if i can find one in town anywhere for a spinning rod but I'm not sure what reel to put that with. Then when it comes to balooning im not sure what the prefered set up would be. I was thinking the Lemax president again but I've also read that perhaps short boat rods for balooning could also work? Read alot of good things about the Penn senator 114h as a reel for line capacity and just overal robustness but any other suggestions would be lovely. Probably looking to spend between 5-600 if i can sort both of them out would be great.

getting the bottom line final answer from a bunch of blokes that use false names and put smiley faces at the end of paragraphs is not the best place in the world to get the information you seek.
