Welcome KingBoj and I have no doubt that many of our knowledgable anglers will be able to put you in the picture reel and rod wise. <br><br>A quick note on the calcutta's. While a favourite baitcaster of mine for lighter work, I do not think you will get 300/350 yards of 30# line onto a 400 so one option is to look at the 700. <br><br>Also take a look at other threads on this board if you need more info on casting with BC's. Takes lots of practice as you may already know. <br><br>As for other baitcasters and various comments, take a look up at Capt.Dan's Saltwaterboard because plenty of views on different reels get discussed there as well. <br><br>Then drop back in here because plenty of Penn users call by as well. Also feel free to take part in our lure swap ok. It's just for fun. <br><br>Burnin Thumbs!<br><br>Steve B <br>Moderator Lures/Baits Forum<br><A HREF="http://www.demonjigs.com" target="_new">http://www.demonjigs.com</A>
