Ditto on the adjustable clicker for the Trini's love that option on my two Trini 14's.

Ok, Ok... I hooked & landed these two fish below on a Sealine 20, no kelp, or structure near. But, I dont like small reels, less torque than a bigger spool to turn up a fish. As rastrev as my witness, I hooked, and lost 3 #50 WSB in a row, on a Curado 300DSV #50 spectra, next to the kelps, could not turn them. If you guys want to continue to use your lil Gold Calcuttas, mini Trini's, Go for it! (just razzin ya!)
