It has a Fuji reel seat.

I have a custom 11' Nex1 3-8. Barely used, titanium torzite guides. I can take photos after work this afternoon if you're interested, but I do have the layout used.

Century Stealth S1 seems to be the most similar choice.

Superstrike little neck popper hook removal/replacement advise

The 5.25 Little Neck Popper is easily my favorite plug. 2/0 belly treble with a 6/0 lightly-dressed siwash on the rear for me. I got my supply of tail hooks in the Commercial B/S/T here from NJTramcar. -
What knot are you using? Edit: Just saw Uni Knot. Are you moistening it? Possible you are burning the line when cinching it down?
-
Not that it'd probably matter when your bail is closing, but are you using a Uni Knot with braid? If so, that is a fairly poor knot with braid. Palomar is the standard braid knot, but the doubled Uni Knot (line is doubled) is a great alternative. Although 3 tag ends is a bit strange!

Pretty cool read! Thanks for sharing. -
On the tides you are planning to fish, no. It may not be as bad as the video, but it will be mobbed.

I use the Modified Albright (Alberto), but the FG is the strongest.

I spent a lot of time a few years ago obsessing about the optimal loaded Redfin. I found that 11cc's of mineral oil was the sweet spot for me, with a 3/0 belly and 2/0 tail hook configuration. If you want to load with bird shot or bbs or whatever, aim for making the plug 1.4oz. You could probably go a little heavier to do what you're describing, but hope this helps as a starting point!

Smart to bite the bullet. I originally went the cheap route and it is INFURIATING when the hooks get stuck in the bag material.

I don't think the VR125 would be too small weight-wise, at all. You may want a bigger spool I suppose though. Gosa is a great reel. I'd go with a 6k. 8k is way too big/heavy, imo.

I don't think the Slug-go would even make my top 10 choices.
