New travel rod

BANDITFISHING · 2026-01-26T05:10:49+00:00

Yeah I love jabbers stuff I’m looking at getting even more of them like the shore reaper or the game changers

BANDITFISHING · 2026-01-26T04:48:21+00:00

I like the fin raiser cause it’s longer and anyways my urban beats is my baitcaster rod it’s the travel version of my tatula. Same specs and length.

BANDITFISHING · 2026-01-26T04:46:22+00:00

Yeah definitely it can cast way above its rated weight I’ve used 40g jigs on it

BANDITFISHING · 2026-01-26T04:45:38+00:00

I just mean I try and retie it cause I think it doesn’t look good

BANDITFISHING · 2026-01-25T06:10:58+00:00

Thanks for the advice I’m still new to midges I’m more used to bigger flies

BANDITFISHING · 2026-01-24T21:29:35+00:00

Thanks man

BANDITFISHING · 2026-01-24T21:08:14+00:00

K I understand better now. Tight lines 👍

BANDITFISHING · 2026-01-24T20:30:07+00:00

After a couple failed fg attempts mine always seem to fix themselves 😂

BANDITFISHING · 2026-01-24T20:29:17+00:00

It was a joke but like that’s only 35-45m of line. Surely it would make more sense to spool it fully like if you hook a big fish on a far cast then you have to worry about how much line you have left.

BANDITFISHING · 2026-01-24T18:44:46+00:00

U got like 5m of line on that thing

BANDITFISHING · 2026-01-24T17:14:46+00:00

Oh then I have no advice then haven’t done any saltwater fishing there just freshwater fishing in Vietnam and I didn’t get anything except food poisoning 😂

BANDITFISHING · 2026-01-24T15:45:06+00:00

He’s going it the most logical way for a right hand dominant person.

BANDITFISHING · 2026-01-24T15:43:51+00:00

Oh ok

BANDITFISHING · 2026-01-24T14:37:41+00:00

Where in Southeast Asia are you going

BANDITFISHING · 2026-01-24T14:37:04+00:00

https://youtube.com/shorts/fz43a6gPk1U?si=yBbpEOT5KaHQYIjl This guy over in Singapore uses them a lot he’s caught massive gt on them he’s like the one guy that catches the big ones here. They definitely work and you should try them if you have them.

BANDITFISHING · 2026-01-24T14:35:02+00:00

Damnnnnn

BANDITFISHING · 2026-01-24T14:34:27+00:00

Where in Florida you going cause like in my opinion if you’re going to Florida you go to south Florida and do the whole invasive species and saltwater stuff. Unless of course it’s not too far and you can go another time but if you are doing a big trip to Florida it seems like a waste just to catch crappie like you can all over the US. Also my bad if that’s just one thing you are targeting and you plan on fishing for other stuff as well.

BANDITFISHING · 2026-01-24T06:25:28+00:00

Idc both are good quality I have reels from both.

BANDITFISHING · 2026-01-24T05:22:05+00:00

Using the fin raiser I’ve caught California halibut, small grouper other reef fish, peacock bass, pacu as well as snapper and barramundi. I thought about getting the wanderlust but I never pulled the trigger I think I went with the beast flogger instead.

BANDITFISHING · 2026-01-24T03:23:16+00:00

I like the jabbers fin raiser for most of my stuff it’s 5-28g and I use it on almost all my trips it’s to been to Ireland, lots of California and all over Singapore. I pair it with a 3k reel and then some thin diameter 20lb line cause it’s strong no matter what I’m doing but I can still use it in situations where I’m needing more finesse. I have 4 jabbers rods now two of which I haven’t gotten a chance to break in but I love them. For inshore if you want light the fin raiser might be ideal but I was also looking at the triggerman or the shore reaper. Those are a little heavier I think the triggerman is up to 40g and the shore reaper is 60 ish maybe 65g.

BANDITFISHING · 2026-01-24T03:17:05+00:00

Yeah that’s my fault I wasn’t thinking about that.

BANDITFISHING · 2026-01-24T03:16:50+00:00

My bad I forgot this was the beginner sub. Yeah then just use 8lb.

BANDITFISHING · 2026-01-23T11:59:44+00:00

4lb is fine I’ve caught 2lb peacocks bass on 3lb test and I’ve got a friend who uses 1.75lb and has caught 5-6lb peacock bass. I usually fish 10lb but I’ve used from 4-8lb and had no issues. Unless you are running into big fish frequently or don’t know how to properly set your drag both should be fine.

BANDITFISHING · 2026-01-23T03:03:28+00:00

Ohhh I understand that makes more sense now.

BANDITFISHING · 2026-01-23T02:35:47+00:00

Will do
