iam planning a trip to mag bay at the end of oct and am looking for an 80-100# setup. what are your thoughts on the accurate bx2 30 vs. the avet hx30 raptor vs the makaira 15 or 20. itll be loaded with 80 or 100# spectra or hollow with a 100# mono top. obviously price is the biggest difference.
any advice based on experience with one or all would be great.
for 80# spectra and a 60# topshot, i just ordered a penn 12 international vsx......
For 100lb topper I like something in the 30 size range. I'd go with either the BX or the Makaira 20. I like the topless Makaira 20 over their 30 also.
i have a makaira 20 with 500 yards of 100# solid spectra. i don't see fishing with anything heavier in the near future. alan
A Makaira 20 will definitely handle your needs.......
