Rated 5 out of 5 Value for your money
I was hunting a high speed reel for deep water jigging in the middle grounds. Picked up a torium 30 spooled with 300 yards of 80lb power pro. Love it, puts everything in the boat that i can hook. Used to use it for snapper and my 6/0 penn for grouper, now i just take my toriums. Wonderful reels for the value

We were after Red Snapper about 30 miles offshore from Panama City Beach. That's what my 17 yr old son said as he landed a 35 LB Grouper using a Torium #16 reel spooled with 25LB fluoro hybrid line mounted on a 15 to 30 LB Kingfish rod .
Snapper sometimes have a timid bite. Torium, being light, is easy on the arms and wraists so you to feel those little bumps at 160 plus feet. The high speed line recovery is a tremendous plus as you are constantly winding up to check your bait. Comfort, high speed, smooth drag, plenty spool capacity, and strength to land bottom fish...perfect!

The Torium series by shimano has to be the best reels that I have ever used. You can really put the screws to the fish using these reels. With the high gear ratio this reel is even great for bottom fishing for cod. I reccomend getting at least two of these reels for your boat because you can use these for almost any type of fishing.

What is the main difference between the Tor 14 and the Tor 16? I plan on spooling with 50 lb Spectra. Which would work better for casting a 6 ounce swim/jig for Ling Cod off the California coast. What would be a good rod for either of these reels? I presently use a Tor30 spooled with 80 lb spectra for Rock Cod. Thank youAnswers

In the end it's only about line capacity, if I were you I'd get the larger reel (Torium 16) Only because if you want to use it for something else it has the capacity to do this.
A:Â
The diferences between the Tor 14 and Tor 16 are the reel weight 15.7oz vs 22.4oz, Maximum Drag Full 13lb vs Full 22lb and braided line capacity 225 yds./65 lb vs 260 yds./80 lb. The Torium 16 would be your best choice when using the 6 oz. lure. Please consider the Offshore Anglerâ„¢ Ocean Master® IM7 Light Tackle Series Casting Rod, 38-164-302-00.Details:Â
Also, what would be a good rod for the Tor20?Answers
A:Â
The Torium is right hand retrieve only. Please consider the Ocean Master Light Tackle rod 38-164-302-00 .

does anyone know how this thing could handle casting heavy chunks baits ( 6 + ounces of lead and bait) from the surf?Answers
A:Â
It's not ideal for casting - better for bottom fishing or trolling. For the ultimate in casting heavy baits from the surf, go with either a Shimano Stella or Van Staal spinning reel. Shimano Sustain is also a great choice. A spinning reel will work best for casting heavy baits from the surf.A:Â
I throw baits with a pound or pound and a half of lead to hold my sturgeon baits in the heavy current. They cast very well.
