First Cast: Tranx 500 HG & Calstar 100 J-Mag

Ойын-сауық

First time ever testing out the Tranx 500! I've been a big believer in the Daiwa Lexa 400 for a long time, but I felt with the style of fishing I have been growing more towards over the past couple years, it is time to step it up and upgrade to the Tranx!
I have absolutely no complaints what so ever! Amazing reel, absolute work horse! Could not be any happier with this investment!

    charlie071197 the Trinidad 20a is a fantastic reel but me personally, I still have yet to perfect casting with conventional reels and that’s the main reason I invested in the tranx. I’ve missed a lot of opportunities at fish during a wide open bite because of picking out a backlash. So for me personally, at this point, I prefer the Tranx 500 for casting irons. I have not tried the daiwa 400 on my 100 J. I’m sure it would be fine but I personally felt I needed the bigger spool for the style of fishing I plan to get into for the future

    So the HG stands for High Gear, and PG stands for Power Gear. Personally, I never had the intention of casting this real at any fish over 50lbs so I went with the HG to have a little bit faster reel. But if you plan on using it for Bluefin fishing, or foamer fishing, I’d definitely recommend the PG for that extra power when you’ll need it while fighting a fish

    TheJwhollis I think I get equal use out of the 2 of them, but I do feel the trini is more versatile. Nice fast and powerful reel that can really wench in some fish when needed, also great for speed retrieving yoyos, and fly lines really nicely. As for casting, I do think the tranx casts more smoothly and easier with the magnetic breaks, however with that being said, someone with a very trained thumb can outcast a tranx on a trini any day of the week. Honestly a lot to take into consideration between these 2 reels. If you want strictly casting from light small lures to full size jigs, tranx is great. If you want a lot of versatile for multiple different uses, I’d go with the trini

    SeaRex around the Ventura area, there’s Channel Islands Sport fishing, Hooks Sportfishing, and Ventura sportfishing. All 3 landings have boats that range from $70-$120 a ticket. We’re at the end of our season out here so all the boats have been mainly rockfishing. However if you get on one of the more expensive boats ($90-$120 a ticket) you have a better chance at ling cod and sheep head. The better boats usually try to put better quality meat in the bags for everyone

I’ll either get a hand full of water and poor it on the spool or get a little splash from a water bottle on the spool to help wet the line.

However, I don’t cast straight braid on conventional tackle. I usually have a 80+ yard top shot of mono for both surface irons and fly line. Only time I have full spool of braid to a short leader of fluoro is while casting snipers and other jigs at tuna
