ranger2108 (7/27/2009)I see that Academy (at least here in Austin) has Torium 16s on sale for $99. I'm guessing that may be going a bit too light? What do y'all think? Pretty nice reel for the price, but could be a waste of money if its not suited for the task.

Thanks

I use a pair of Torium 30s when trolling for Kings. I have a pair of Torium 20s to use when trolling for Spanish. The 16 is probably too small for your needs. They are fantastic reels for the price.

I have a torium 20 that I use trolling for kings. You said that you were going to be fishing out of a bay boat and staying inshore right? If this is the case, the Torium 16 can be casted somewhat also and could be used to catch kings, bull reds and many other species. Also if the correct rod is chosen you would be able to bottom fish and or jig with it. I think it would be a great buy for $99.
