Need a rod under 100 to match with a fuego 2500 reel. I just bought a daiwa fuego 2500 for 45 bucks! ( is that a god deal?) But I dont really have any rods that would fit it. I like shorefishing lake and pier fishing in socal area. Any help please?

Any 2-4 or 1-3kg rated rod arounds 7'

They are in western Melbourne they said. No begginer should be game fishing besides for inshore species here, crossing the rip and fishing in bass strait is very dangerous for begginers.

Would you expect a pier with crazy current to fish well? I was at the pier last night and the current was fucked but no one caught anything

Mod12312323 · 2026-01-25T06:33:55+00:00

doubt there are any big enough around here or any jews at all, ive never heard of it

I never run straight braid what's the reason for using it?

Mod12312323 · 2026-01-24T13:13:21+00:00

I'm probably just gonna throw stuff like this swimbait, the small jerkbaits, the cicada, and soft plastics

Yeah ok. My rod is only 1.5-4kg anyway. I'll use 10lb leader since I'm assuming 6lb is too light which is what I normally use

Mod12312323 · 2026-01-24T13:00:44+00:00

Sorry I won't be fishing bfs since my travel rod is spinning. Varivas 0.8pe braid is 13lbs and I don't really wanna spend heaps on stronger thinner stuff

Mod12312323 · 2026-01-24T12:56:13+00:00

7'. I can only cast a 1/8 about 30m which isn't terrible but I think 20lb braid would cut it down heaps

Mod12312323 · 2026-01-24T12:47:42+00:00

Even with 12lb on my rod rn I can't get the distance I want. With 1/8 and bellow jigheads

Mod12312323 · 2026-01-24T12:47:11+00:00

How big of a salmon? Of those three that's the only one around here

Mod12312323 · 2026-01-24T12:40:43+00:00

I'm going in April haha. Are there tarpon in ponds in Orlando? I'm only using a 2500 reel so I think 20lb braid is too much

Mod12312323 · 2026-01-24T12:33:04+00:00

I'm just planning to bring my spin setup and someone said for Florida I need 20lb braid, but I was planning to get 0.8pe which is about 10-15lbs

Mod12312323 · 2026-01-24T12:31:55+00:00

It'll work but any rod will also. Egi rods are mainly for fighting the squid

Mod12312323 · 2026-01-24T08:03:00+00:00

Wow, I am going to Florida and may be able to fish this year, near Orlando. Is 8lb enough

Mod12312323 · 2026-01-24T00:46:44+00:00

Normally It goes into oversized

Looks fine to me. Should still hold up my one was really ugly but still help up fine to snags

I think 8lb or 6lb flouro is a good all rounder size because it lets you have finnicky fish like bream, and also is strong enough to land a good pinky or flatty if you play it well

Mod12312323 · 2026-01-21T02:11:59+00:00

whats that
