What Size Saltwater Spinning Reels I Use and Why (Rods, Fishing Line Too)

What size spinning reels are good for saltwater fishing? In this video I show the three different combos I use all the time on this channel and what each one is used for. They all have specific purposes when targeting different fish in particular locations. You don't have to invest a ton of money in fishing gear either. All of the combos that I fish with are very reasonably priced.

1. This is my 2500 BG series Diawa spinning reel combined with a Zebco Rhino rod (6' 6" long). It's spooled with Berkeley Triline Big Game fishing line, 12 lb. test. This set up is used for smaller saltwater fish and some bigger species that I'd catch in open water areas.

2. The 4000 Penn Pursuit 2 is the best all around sized reel I use. It will handle good sized fish that I might hook into while shore fishing and also is a fair choice for some smaller species. This reel is combined with an Ugly Stik Elite 7' rod.

3. For the big fish I use a Penn Pursuit 2 6000 sized reel. I've caught monster snook, redfish and even a goliath grouper that was close to the 100 lb. range with this reel. It's paired with an Ugly Stik Big Water 7' medium/heavy rod.

These are all good sized saltwater spinning reels for fishing from shore or bridges. If you plan on doing off shore fishing, I'd recommend bumping up your reel size. There are some monster fish off shore.
