Saragosa 18k versus Twin Power 10k

[acciola]

I've now established now that the Twin Power is the better reel as opposed to getting a Saragosa and that is what I'll eventually get. The only snag is that the 8000 which is the largest model to have PG (Power Gears 4.9 ratio) has, in my opinion, too small a spool for relatively deep jigging, PE6 would take about 200m only at best.

The 12000 on the other hand, has a decently sized spool and takes PE6 at 270m but they only come in HG (High Gear 5.6 ratio).

Now my problems is this..... I am not sure if I should purchase an 8000 with a 12000 spool fitted as I'm not sure if this will work well OR just buy the 12000 HG as is but then I'm not sure if it will be good for jigging (always keep in mind that this will be my spare reel to my Stella 20k).

I would really like some opinions on this from one of you experts lurking out there . I want to be sure I'm doing the right thing before I go ahead and purchase anything... Help!
