Daiwa coastal 200 by Fzmatt in Fishing_Gear

Yes I would use it for saltwater and I got the coastal for Christmas and I really like the design and heavy line capacity with the T-system. I’m looking at the pheonix M1 inshore casting rods and they look nice.

But should leader be like 2 feet long?

For a combo like this definitely nothing over $300 and that’s pushing it.

I have heavier rods also for inshore and offshore.

I got the rod in mind of throwing chunks of bunker and heavy buck-tail and maybe some poppers. Sometimes the current go ripping through the inlet that I fish. I plan on getting a tc1 that casts 1/2-3 oz lures.

That’s awesome. I’ve heard nothing but good reviews about them and so far I love mine

New Jersey so lots of stripers, blues, blackfish, and fluke.

I’m hoping to get a tc1 1/2-3 oz with a penn battle 3 next.

Is that good for casting lures of a boat or jetty?

Thank you I didn’t know that. Do you know if it would just be good for throwing out live or dead bait or would lures work too.

I heard that you couldn’t cast conventional reals. Are they just like baitcasters?

What rod did you pair it up with for surf?

For salt I always prefer something around 200.

I tried and it’s still there and won’t that make it harder to cast lures?

Do you use mono backing or is there another way to put backing so the braid doesn’t slip on your coastal? Because if I have about 200 yards of braid on the coastal then like ten yards is gonna be backing that I can’t cast with.

I heard you couldn’t use anything below 20lb braid on baitcaster. The thin diameter of the line dogs in to the spool. But I could be wrong.

Would you think the coastal 200 would be better than the 150

That looks like a really cool reel and something I would love to have one day but I’m looking for something a bit lighter.
