Long rod every trip. Killer setup.. but too nice of a reel for the yak IMO. Id hate to cover that thing in mackerel slime and sand.

I went overboard with gear once I got the boat..bought two Tranx and a bunch of other setups.. I bring the one I am keeping with me when I hit LJ..knock on wood haven't ate it in the surf with it on yet..

They don't want you to know this, but Shimano's factory reel and drag grease is just refined mackerel slime.
