Was wondering if anyone has a Torium 30 for sale in the San Diego area

I'd go saltist. They use more metal. I've owned both and have to service the toriums much more. They aren't sealed as well as the daiwas. I like the drags better too.

I think the 30h is a little smaller reel than the torium 30. Try the 35h

Copy that. I notice the saltists are cheaper than the toriums. If its a better reel than shoot I'm on it. Ill def look more at the star drag also. I'm not into the lever drag especially when I have a fish hangin

So guys what saltist is the equal size to the torium 30. I think I'm gonna go the daiwa route I just wanna get the equivalent

Torium. Upgraded dog. Carbontex drags. Not really looking to get rid if it unless you have a hand on some avets or something else tempting...

I suggest buying a Seagate 30 or 40. It's got a lighter spool than the saltiest and its only $140 or so new... Best bang for your buck and fishes very well. Holds up under bigger fish as well. I landed a 57lb Bluefin on one this season and it keeps on keppin on....
