Pen Reel Question

My husband says we have a 31T not a 27. We sold that boat years ago. We have an older 21 Cape horn for the bays and Santa Rosa Sound. The bigger boat is mainly off shore.

Do y'all jig fish offshore?

we just moved here from PC. My husband retired from Tyndall. We do go offshore mainly for grouper. What tackle shop has the best selection and prices. I think I'll go with the Abu Garcia® Soron STX™ Spinning Reels.

You will probably have to go to Outcast in Pensacola or Hot Spots bait and tackle in Gulf Breeze to find that. Half hitch mostly pushes Shimano.

I just read of a lots reviews on the Abu Garcia® Soron STX™ Spinning Reels and 99% were very positive. The last time we bought any reels (early 90's) Penn was the best. He is making me do the research and buying this time. He says I can't just be a boat ornament anymore. Thanks for the info on the shops.

Thats funny, I guess he is making you earn your keep so to speak.

I need to know more about all the equipment and electronics. But I do love to be 100 miles offshore with nothing to think about is what to wear! or not!
