Any luck with these?

[Teleia]

Hey everyone,
My dad and I are searching for a rod to mount onto an 18000 Saragosa with 500 yds. of #65 spectra. My dad ran across some of these daiwa rods; any thoughts about them? The 511HFS is rated from 30-60 lb. Do ya'll think it would have enough guts for jigging yellowfin/amberjack/etc?

Thanks,
Nick

There is a post on this site about the Daiwa Saltiga jigging rods , very interesting reviews with some positive about this budget rod.
go to search box & type Daiwa Saltiga rods.

For a rod under $100, I would pick up a Hopper Spin Rod. Depending on how heavy of a jig you usually use, either the 500g or 270g model.
