Hi all,
I've only been shorefishing for a short while, and have a fixed spool setup. I'm going to set myself up with multiplier gear as a second outfit. I'll be fishing South Wales/Bristol Channel marks mostly. I've always liked Penn gear and am looking at the 525 multipliers, but I'm confused about the number of different models GS,Mag, etc etc. Could anyone who uses these reels please share their impressions of them. I don't mind paying out for the top of the range ones if they are of any real benefit. One I do like is the idea of the magnetic brake which I think might be useful to a newbie like me. I'm after reasonable distance and a tough reel which will handle fairly rough ground fishing. Thank in advance for any help.
