So a few months ago I put some money on a AVET reel at Last Chance Bait and Tackle. Unfortunatly I lost my job and well that came to a halt. I fished last month on a 3/4 day on the mission belle and was struggling to pull out cuda with a Shimano TR.. Megan at last chance suggested that instead of a AVET the Shimano Tourium is a very nice reel to throw irons and just an all around good reel. Well today I went in an bought me a Tourium 20 and put some 30lb test on there for my trip on saturday to the coronado islands!!! One thing I forgot though...................... A ROD!!!!! Go figure right?!?!?!?! I guess I will be using just one of my saltwater rods for this trip till I can afford a decent iron rod.... Cant wait to use this thing. The deck hand and the capt of the mission belle both were using tourims last time....

torium is a pretty good real. i woulda chosen a saltist over it but shimano has a great warrenty on their products.
