· #1 Posted June 12, 2019 · Report post I recently acquired a jigging world nexus 7' mh spinning rod (15-40lb, 1-4oz) to target fluke primarily. I'll be jigging from a boat most outings and fishing from the shore some. Looking for recommendations on a spinning reel to pair with it. Would like to keep the price under $200... 0 Go to top Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've got a 4500ss on hand. Collecting dust. I'll try it out. I'm a fluke novice. Haven't jigged much at all since getting rid of the boat 10+ years ago. Thanks for the input! 0 Go to top Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
· #8 Posted June 13, 2019 · Report post the retrieval rate on the old penn is prob a lot slower than a new real.....thats a good thing.....im sure that the back bay is a great reel....I really like penn conflict 2 bc it is so light... 1 Go to top Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
· #9 Posted June 13, 2019 · Report post I always use my Van Staals for just about every other surf fishing situation but the Daiwa BG is awesome especially for the money and the Tsunami Shield does the job pretty well too with the seals on the surf 1 Go to top Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've been using a 5k this spring. I like it. I think initially I'll use something I have on hand. Even with the ballistic 5k I would be at approximately 1 pound for rod and reel.
