What Saragosa reel size to go on Shimano Deep Jig 200?

Hi, Just wondering what your thoughts are on which Shimana Saragos SW reel size to use on a Shimano Deep Jig 200 rod.
I'll be spooling it with PE4 - 5 braid and it's going to be the general purpose rod for bottom bouncing, occasional jigging at the barges, live baiting, trolling, etc
I've got a 6000SW and 10000SW as examples as the 5000 and 6000 are the same size reel and the 8000 and 10000 are the same size (the only difference been the line capacity on the spools).
I'm leaning towards the 6000SW

snap snap boom!
I have a deep jig 200, with a old style saragosa 8000 , running pe4 , and say its quite well balanced and matched,
the rod may have a bit left in it , but not much , pe5 may be pushing it.
I dont do long jigging sessions with it , but if I did a 6000 would be less fatiguing.

6000
Go the 6000 with PE3 or 4
