Re: Reel for blackfishing
Kinda depends on how much money you want to spend. I got a Saltiga 15 for bottom fishing and I won't tell my wife what it cost.
A lot of people like the maxell hybrid too Or you could find a used jigmaster. Lots of choices. My one recommendation is to get a star drag, not a lever for bottom fishing.

Re: Reel for blackfishing
I use Both a star drag as well as a lever drag.
I personally like the lever drag alot more for blackfishing really ruff stuff Both reels are made in the Penn fathom series. I like the reels in the sizes 15 and 25 narrow. good drags and smooth as silk

Re: Reel for blackfishing
What's your budget and do you prefer lever drag or star drag?
