combo help....
Gday Guys and Gals
I am in need of some advice. I've been eyeing on a Shimano Scorpion 1000 Baitcaster to mate with a struddy sic stik 6'6. Just wondering if any has or ever used this combo or in particular the reel (seeing as i can't get hold of one in Perth)...... Any comments comments on the reel or the combo would be muchly appreciated. |

are you flicking plastics around with it? cause the baitcaster will find it hard to cast light plastics.

Love your nickname.... If you're planning to use a baitcaster for breaming then my advise is scrap that idea... Best outfit for breaming is a threadline (spinning/ eggbeater) reel with a soft tip rod (for plastics) or high modulus stiifer type for hardbodies..
If you're interested in that combo for other uses... dunno... can't help you there. Abandoned my Calcutta a long time ago in favour of a spinning reel. |

Shimano Scorpion
Hey,
I say get the Shimano Scorpion, I am also looking at buying one. I think it is capable of casting light lures around with ease. It is an awesome reel, i recently checked one out at Compleat Angler, and i have to say that it is awesome. U can get one from Japantackle or off ebay if you are lucky to find one. Cheers DaiwaFreak |

Im pretty sure that he would have already made a decision about the reel considering he asked the question in 2004
