Default If money didnt matter- what would be the best AJ setup

Just asking what you all think. Money does matter to me, but I am curious as to what combination of reel rod line everyone would use. After looking at the post of the 130lber, it had me wondering.

I got news for you, you go ahead and fight all you want on that and when you are thru let us know how you feel. That is why they call them reef donkeys because all the pain they dish out. Those lighter jigging rods are way better on the fishermen also. They are truely amazing.

100% agreed....a 9/0 is torture. the new spinning reels are definitely the way to go.
