To be honest, it was too much for me to read entirely lol. I did brief over it quickly and he did make it seem very nice, but he makes a lot of the products he reviews seem really nice too.

Hi Kimtown, 

I've done a few reef fishing charters as you have planned. I have multiple sizes with the new 2020 Saltiga and 21 Certate SW. I would definitely recommend the new Certate SW as it has 95% of the Saltiga technology but for 40% less cost. Highly recommend Tasline Braid 80lb for GT hunting (breaking strain 116lb) and 40lb for the flats. It's silky smooth without coatings to allow 15% extra on your spool and less chance of wind knots. Buy some small diamond coated sharpeners from Bunnings (pocket size) and make sure your hooks are always sharp. Enjoy!
