I bought a Spinfisher 10500 and a 50lb Star rod a while back to fish for sharks at Sebastian Inlet. At the time this was only because I needed to be able to 'cast' 20ft to get my bait out into the current. I thought I was taking a big step down from my conventional rig and was risking getting spooled if I hooked into a big one. So far it has worked just fine handling 5-6ft blacktips with ease. But recently I have been reading up on the specs and reviews of many of the top spinning reels on the market. They are pretty impressive. A rig with 50-60lbs of drag and 400-500yds of 80lb line on a strong rod is a pretty formidable weapon! I'm curious how many of you use spinning reels to fish for big sharks. What is the biggest you have landed? Have you gotten spooled?
