I'm probably looking at too light of reels but liking the price point and the weight, do u's guys think one of these would be ballsy enough for that rod,,, Not a lot of canal time, I think "I dun no"....

ST5000XGFK Stradic FK
SP6000SW Spheros SW
SRG6000SW Saragosa SW

The Saragosa (and probably spheros) is a heavier reel, I think, than the Stradic and likely do fine. I suspect the Stradic 5000 would feel unbalanced, even with very light guides and is probably not as strong a reel as the blank can utilize.

Ya, the Gosa felt better with it, thanks again George
