Well, who's to say that I'm not getting a Saragosa for my secondary reel?
I'd like to have two reels for both jigging and casting. The Saragosa 18000 will be primary jigging reel as the Twin Power will be my primary casting reel. I will be getting a Saragosa 8000 for my secondary jigging and casting reel that would be mounted on my lighter jigging or casting rod.
The reason I picked the Twin Power as my primary casting reel was:
1) Amongst 8000 series reels, it has one of the highest gear ratio of 5.7:1
2) Amongst 8000 series reels, it has one of the highest line capacities
3) Amongst 8000 series reels, it can produce one of the higher drags (even though I'll only set it to low-mid 20s, it's good to know I won't be maxing out the drag) at 33lbs
4) Against the Saragosa 8000F reel, it is more proven.
That's why it's the lead-off hitter and the Saragosa is on deck in my book.
