I like the old school reels.....Trinidad/torium 16 saltiest/saltiga 30t. 50 or 65lb braid and 30/40lb leader. I like to go at least 50lb on the braid just for the feel and I know for sure it would cut through the kelp

For us lefties.....There is the Avet Line, JX with MC will handle just about anything on the Socal coast on a casting setup. The Lexa 400 looks pretty sweet, but I have no idea how long it will hold up. But I'm sure you'll find one in my arsenal in the next year. I'm running the lefty JX without MC and love it, but would sure like to try the MC for a day or two.
