I purchased the Trinidad 30 for bottom fishing and after my first offshore trip with it, I bought a Trinidad 50. The Trini 30 has around 17 lbs of drag - just not enough for bottom fishing IMO.
Mechanically it's solid and looks great but needs more drag. I'm getting ready to send it to Charkbait for an upgrade that increases drag to around 30 lbs - it will be a good reel then.
If your looking for large grouper and Amberjacks, I'd go with a two speed reel. The low gear really helps when fighting a big fish. I use an Avet Pro 30W and it's great! JMO
