tsunami carbon shield 2 rod II Casting Great choice whether you are casting soft plastics to striped bass in the northeast or using live bait for redfish and other inshore saltwater species in the south. Tsunami Carbon Shield II Spinning

Its HT-100 carbon fiber drag delivers smooth resistance under heavy loads, while line capacity rings and a braid-ready Superline spool give you the versatility to spool heavy braid for big fish tactics

Programmable auto stop feature stops winding when lure or bait reaches the surface

Fly shops are another great way to find waters that hold fish

Hard-Anodized Saltwater Design

(We even took this reel into saltwater and managed striped bass in the 20-pound range without any trouble at all, though if you do the same, we highly recommend not only carefully washing but also occasionally opening, cleaning, and air-drying this reel.) It doesnt offer nearly the same durability as our top pick and runner-up do, however, and in larger sizes the price difference between it and those models is too negligible for most people not to invest just a little more for something offering much more longevity
