Flyfish-mt Posted August 8, 2024 Posted August 8, 2024 Hello, I own (2) SB781-3 and (2) SB841-3 all built into spinning rods. However, I was wondering how the SB843-3 would be if built into a casting rod? I would be using this primarily for inshore fishing (Snook, Redfish, Etc.) throwing Mirror-o-dines, Clacker rigs, Kastmaster spoons, etc. Probably running 30-40lb braid w/ leader. Quote
Super User MickD Posted August 8, 2024 Super User Posted August 8, 2024 If the power and action match what you want to do, it will work fine. Blanks are simply power, action, and recovery-from-deflection speed. They don't care if they are spin or cast. I have the 841 as a spin and it's only issue is that it's a very fast action, about 80 degrees CCS and power higher than most would call ML. That works for some stuff, but not ideal for others. You know how that power and action fishes, and I would assume the 843 will have a similar action with more power. I think you have all the info needed to make a decision. Quote
