Dipsy Rod?

[holy mackerel]

I have to agree on the twilli tip over roller, I found out the reel handle length makes a HUGE difference on ease of reeling after going from Daiwa great lakes 47lc to Okuma Catalinas. They have an adjustable handle length and a large knob. The constuction is vastly improved over earlier stuff from Okuma. detented star drag is nice.

The size 25 model easily hold 1000' of wire. On par with Tekota in my opinion.

As for rods, 9' to clear 6 foot rigger booms.
