Jekyll Island Ga sandbar shark on an Avet SX Slideshow
Logging you in...
even all the way at setting 1 it is over braked?,thanks for commenting back btw
If I were to do it all over again I'd purchase another Daiwa Saltist 30H star drag instead of the Avet. It is a much better all around fishing reel for the type fishing I do. It is also much easier to clean and service than the lever drag Avet. I have a video of me casting it on my channel.
The Avets are not very castable without being magged. You can either mag it yourself or buy the MC version. I must say that the MC version is a tad over braked but if you put the lever in the bait position instead of the freespool position, it pulls the spool slightly away from the magnets and it just about perfect for actual fishing conditions. That St. Croix rod may be a tad too short for distance casting. I prefer rods from 10.5' to 13' long. It is a Thanks for watching and commenting.
does the mc cast make you lose a lot of distance? do you think a st Croix 7'6 with an avet mxl mc(15-30) can get 100 yds
I will try and make that video for you sometime in the future.
can you make a casting video with the avet sx
Thanks for the info i will be fishing on jekyll island the day after labor day and will use your
tips

I used a live finger mullet that was approximately 3 to 3 1/2" long.
I used a 12' Oceanmaster lite surf rod and the reel had 30lb braid backing, 20lb Big Game mono top shot, and a short 50lb shockleader.
I like to fish on the south end anywhere from the soccer complex all the way down to the southern tip of the island.
HI, Great Catch! I'm heading to Jekyll in 2 weeks and would like some tips on what areas to fish. I've mostly fished off the pier but prefer fishing from the shore. I have all the gear, I'm just not really sure what areas are better than others, deeper water, etc. Any help would be greatly appreciated! I hope to have my own video to post soon.

What bait did you use and how much?
