4000 saltwater reel Penn Battle IV Spinning 1 Line capacity Lb/Yds 10/190 12/140 15/110 Okuma SA-4000HA Salina Spinning 4000,

The distinct difference with the Gunfish 117 is the incredible fluid motion of the bait on its retrieve and its big fish drawing power with its oversized profile

The SA Amplitude MPX is probably the best overall line for this rod as the size heavy head loads the blank more deeply and the long rear taper offers substantial control at distance

Equipped with the ParaMag RX Braking System, this baitcaster reel offers precise cast control while maintaining maximum distance, letting you place your bait exactly where it needs to be

The lure color selection process can be as complex as you make it

These baits are also often fished around cover, so the more abrasion resistant fluoro wins out here too
