 Chat to @Foose. He swears by it.
Pulled some big fish (cow sharks) etc

But truth be told, in my opinion they all good.

 A colleague of mine bought that Metaloid rod and paired it with the BG6500 with depth charge braid on it and he has been raving about it ever since.. So far only caught small fish. He says he likes the balance as well. I am interested in the Makaira but want it as a multiplier...so I am prepared to wait for it to come on the market.
