Looking for a deal on a Sabiki rod for Part I's 40th birthday. Anybody got a recommendation, or a reel that they are happy with? Ebay's got them for $48 and free shipping then I'll just need a reel. Thanks. Part II.

I have an Abu Ambassador and am happy with it. The larger hooks get hung sometimes when reeling in.

Thanks, Reel, sorry I have not gotten back to you on the 15 BW and 175 OMC...coming up to James Island for some glass work.

Regarding the larger hooks on the Sabiki, I don't think I've ever used anything that big. Cobia season is coming, you should come down. Michael.

Any hits with the 23? Part II.

Sabikis for greenies haven't gotten hung, just the bigger ones for like blue runners. I'm gonna update my life insurance for a ride in the BW 15' and 175.....geez, I had a 225 on my 22 OR and it ran fine
