daiwa capricorn 3500 spinning reel Saltwater Reel, Black/gold (Model May Vary) : Sports & Outdoors The Daiwa sweepfire Daiwa SALTIST3500 JDM Japanese Domestic

Perfect for: working alongside forward-facing sonar, as well as over humps, shoals, and weed and wood-strewn flats

I've been wanting a 3-weight for years, since my 5 weight is far to big for most of the small spring creeks and mountain freestone streams I fish, but have been unwilling to invest the money in a quality rod

But there are several more great baits with internal weight systems to help with casting on the market now, like the Ark MiniDiver and SPRO Little John Micro DD, which have different body styles but also attack this 5- to 10- foot range well in the winter

Half the "Stash" is still in totes waiting to be opened up, cleaned, serviced & displayed

11 bearings, plus one more for instant anti-reverse, makes this reel butter smooth on casts

Yes, you can add braid using a uni knot as long as there is enough line to fill to the point where the knot is fully covered by line for a full cast (if it gets exposed during a cast, it can cause issues with casting
