Default W&M saltwater reels
just bought a new reel, a wright and mcgill sablalos spinning reel, made for saltwater fishing, My boss bought 2 of em and he's been catching plenty fish with them in cocodrie and he hasn't had any problems with them. Has anyone else used them. For saltwater I usually buy shimano but this was more in my price range and a great deal.

The rods are junk hope you have good luck with the reels
Had 2 of the Blair Wiggins W&M rods they have broke about 4 times or more. They broke right now don't pay to get em fixed

I haven't used the spinning yet, bout to pick a couple up for sports to use.
But ever since I got the 6'8" MediumLight casting rod I haven't used any other rod and they are supposedly using the same blanks.
Extremely light weight and good balance.........I'll say this my boat is about to have alot of Duce Rods in it
