I have at least 10 ABU Garcia Cardinal 503 albi's. Have to wash them every time you saltwater fish but they are light and tough I have caught tons of is on them and even a 30+ red

ohhhh... Now you're gonna start bringing real fish into the situation huh?

I read that catching fish will greatly increase the wear on your reels, therefore I avoid reeling anything larger than bait and an occasional oyster on a poor day.
