Favorite rod and reel setup - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I've ditched every rod I've had and moved into a complete quiver of Seeker Stealths.

They are very affordable, very durable, incredibly lightweight and look really nice. Seeker also has a great warranty.

I've got an entire range covered. from 10-25 to 40lb with everything inbetween. I have Penn Fathom 15's on a few of them, mainly for big game. A Daiwa Seagate 35H on my 40lb rod for YoYo, Avet SX MC on my Surface stick and Abu Garcia Alphamar on my Halibut stick. I double my Hali stick as my rock/sheep/bass rod.

For general all around use my calstar 800xl-c with an avet sx is my rig of choice, 90% of the time.

St. Croix Mo-Jo Musky rod 10-20 #, with fast action, diawa saltist ld20h is my go to.

My favorite outfit has to be my surface iron set up. Seeker Ulua 93H with a Daiwa SL40hv. Cause I love fishing the light iron. Mike

Abu Garcia Revo Toro 50 with 50lb braid on an 8ft Phoenix 15-40lb jig stick. A baitcaster with conventional power. Gonna get another one soon

My favorite fly outfits are my Abel Super 8 mounted on a Scott Heli-Ply 888/3 & Abel Super 10 mounted on a Scott Heli-Ply 8810-3 with various shooting heads for calicos in the deep kelp.
The 10 weight comes in handy if there are any :1wsb: around.

The Fly rod I use depends on the weight of the shooting head I'm throwing.

My favorite conventional set-up is my Newell 322 mounted on my Calstar 530 or Seeker SJ85 for tossing surface
