This Drone fishing combo rated to 50lb is perfect for chasing fish such as Snapper, Jewfish, Pearl Perch and Pelagics like Longtail Tuna and Cobia, the reason behind the length of the rod is for when you have so much line out under the pressure of a large fish, any friction when line touches the sea bottom can cause you to lose a fish. The 12ft rod keeps the braid way off the bottom and also keeps your line above the surf shore break, The reel we have chosen for this combo is the Shimano Tiagra 30A, the Tiagra like all Shimano overheads is bullet proof. We chose the 30A model for this combo as it has a narrower face, meaning it is easier to set the line lay of your reel when winding in from a long distance.
The combo comes full spooled with 1000m of J Braid X4 50lb with a PR Join to 80lb Top shot of Ottos hard Leader.
