think micheals right, but okuma do one smaller,
then again 5000 size should be spot on for that size fish.

i brought a browning syntec baitrunner and i find it really good, is a dinky little reel so only good for light fishing, but is really smooth, doesn't hold much line tho.

on the other hand i have the shimano super baitrunner the 10000 XTE, is a suberb reel, built like a house.
