I've talked to a few of the guys at Squid Co and they spoke highly of the Lexa 400 and 300. I'm thinking the 400 would be a pretty amazing reel for surface irons and smaller heavy irons. Put it on a 9-10 foot lighter jig stick like a Seeker baby ulua, seeker blue lightning, or phoenix abyss, and let it rip. For yoyo you need a reel with a good drag and tough gears cause you're going to grinding hard with it all day and hooking fish right near bottom. Since you're usually dropping on meter marks you might not need to cast at all. An old school yellow tail special is still hard to beat for yoyo but if you hate mending line on to the spool a Daiwa saltiest or seagate with level wind might be the way to go. The saltiest/seagate would also be a much better reel for slow trolling live baits in the summer. Mike
