I use the 4500 baitrunner on a number of rods, depending on whether I'm chunking, or livelining pogies. I like braid, but now prefer 25# Yozuri Hybrid on that reel.

As for the sabiki rod, grab an old light reel and attach it to a 1"OD piece of PVC pipe with a couple hose clamps. Cut the pipe to the length of the sabiki rig plus about 18". Cut a diagonal hole upwards through the pipe above the reel to feed the line through and file smooth. Attach sabiki rig to main line, after plling it out the end of the pipe, which is now the rod. Add a rubber washer above the bottom weight you tie to the sabiki. When storing, you just wind th sabiki rig inside the pipe til next use.....
