It's time for me to start gathering tackle for the GEM trip and I was wondering about a large reel for chunking. I'm leaning toward an Avet 30 pro or 50 sds. Would the 50 be overkill for this trip? Is the 30 enough for the job? I've got a couple of Penn 20's that I suspect would be ok on smaller fish but may not work on the "cows" so to speak. I hope to do an occasional 52 hr type trip as well so that may affect my choice. Thanks for any feedback, Bert
