    Hey guys I've been looking to do some mangrove jack fishing with lures and live bait my budget is 300$ and im looking for a combo that I can trustfully cast long distances. The reel can be baitcaster or spin depending on what you think in the baitcaster vs spin argument feel free to add on what you think

    Ill probs go for the macka as it has enough length (its 7 feet) and its 5-8kg and the shimano vanford 4000 for trevs and jacks. Im going out to south strattie is there anything else thats not a trev that i can handle on my setup if there is tell me what line and leader and hooks and swivel and general gear i should target for it going camping and fishing at strattie hope to go for some other fish thats not a trev
