Need some setup advice...Just purchased a Diawa Saltist 30H for 110.00 :)

In my opinion that saltist 30 is too big for halibut, is say its a perfect size for yellows and fish of that sort. I fish a saltist 20 for yellows and have never found it to be too small. Those sabre rods are nautical about all I use when it comes to heavier tackle can't beat 40$

Thats a great local out fit. An "all around" out fit is always a tough call though. It would fill several roles well enough. Rig it with spectra and a short leader for YT and WSB. It would also pass as a yo-yo stick. Decent bottom fishing rod too. Mike

Thanks,
It's sounding like what I have will fit the bill. I plan on using it as my yoyo//surface Iron setup when I'm out at LJ because of the gear ratio compared to my TLD-15. I just put 50lbs spectra on the spool, and purchased a 25yrd spool of 30 lbs fluoro that I'll use as topshot.
