Details:
I want to purchase this reel to pair with a 10 ft rod for surf fishing (Trout and reds mostly) Should I go with the 750 or 850. I don't want to buy the wrong size and wind up getting both. I would trust the 750 but I want to be able to handle anything the surf throws at me... What are the disadvantages of having a reel that is too big for a normal day of fishing for me? Thanks!Answers
A:
go 750 if youre using braid....I have the 850 and can fit 300 yards of 50lb braid AFTER backing 1/2 the spool with 50lb mono...The 850 is heavey and can be tiring to cast over and over again...personally though, I would look elsewhere if you are going to be casting any heavy gear....lots of problems with bail closures/breakoffs during the cast..
A:
I really like the 750 from trout to kings to cobia. I think it will be plenty big enough.A:
750 and 850 are alomost the same reel. 850 have a larger capacity spool. I would get the 850 and load 30-60 lb braid line. Anything bigger than 60 I would get a conventional style reel.Details:
I have two 750SSm reels on 10ft surf rods and have been pleased. I need two more reels for similar set-up (maybe 11ft rods). Is there any reason that I should consider the Slammer? American made is a plus. Where are they made?Answers
A:
I would get 12'-20' surf rods, with 950ssm reel up to 14' rod. Anything longer I would use a conventional reel.A:
get the slammer its a lot better but not to sure where they are made.Details:
Can the 650 handle 20-30 pound stripers? And what line and rod would you use with it?Details:
Can the Penn 750ssm handle King mackeral, Mahi, and medium size sharks (4-7 ft)???Answers
A:
go with the 850... same cranking power with higher line capacityA:
it can horse those fish in like nothing.Answers
A:
I use 15lb mono for kings and 25 for Big Cobia So I think I would go with 15-25 lb test just for long runs and line capacity.A:
I recently used 30 mono from Ande on my 850ssm and it worked great. My casts were still going far out. I used a 5 ounce weight and the line handled it with no problem.Answers
A:
the 650 is but the others are big reelsQ:

Yes, the handles on the Spinfisher SS model reels are interchangeable for both right-handed and left-handed retrieves. It is a very quiet reel.1 of 1
