This is the line I use phil.. As I said it seems good but I havn't had chance to try it over here only where I bought it in Fuerteventura.. It is however, bloody strong! I tie a pretty good spider hitch to no-name to my shockleader and eventually the knot gave in before the line snapped
 
Penn mag 525 ( original ) Best reels ever made IMO

and a carbon metal bb, best rod ive ever used


Going to get something for the heavier ground in due course though
 
for beach work it used to be a Zziplex Dymic LT14 EVO matched to a akios 656 shuttle or tourno 666mm3 but just sold the rod to (the tornado) who snapped his tip tornado last week. ( looks like he's gonna have to change his name :D:D:D ) has a replacement beach rod thinking of getting a zziplex m4 gt.
for the rough stuff it's a zziplex full tournament and zziplex m427su matched with penn fathom 15 and daiwa saltist bg 30 h
 
Century c3 ld with a shimano navi 8000/7000, braid on the 7000 spool, mono on the 8000 spool. Slosh 20/30s are my favorite multis.
 
Daiwa tdss12 for clean to mixed
Reelsport blue thunder for mixed up over

reels are a daiwa 7ht and pair of old but still cracking abu6000s that are roughly 27 and a bit years old but still do the job and a greys gmag6 if i need a bit more grunt!
 
rough ground zeteque evo and saltist 20/ 30 , mixed ground compressor s 525 mag or abu sports rocket , lite fun tip tornado ld pen 515 or 7ht
