Its nice to know being unsuccessful happens to everybody and is part of the game :) The lever drags are better but they cost twice as much as the finnor lethal star drag. Sometimes the larger option goes for 104$ on amazon and on the finnor website it claims holds 675 yards of 65lb braid so it seems like a good deal for the price.

Thank you for the offer but San diego is pretty far. Im 18 and the fishing trips my dad and I go on depend on my mom. I'm getting a job this month so I'll be able to pay for gas so my dad and I can fish more often next year. I only have spinning reel combos so I want to get a finnor lethal star drag and a penn prevail or battalion so I can have a casting combo.

I have a penn fierce 6000 and 8000 with 50lb braid. I want to get a conventional setup so I can have more line capacity and pair it with a 12 ft rod.The rods I have for my spinning reels are 9ft long but they are only rated for 12-25lb so they dont have enough backbone for larger weights and fish.

Oh ok, thanks for the info. I probably won't be targeting 7gills anytime soon because I want to work my way up. I want to catch some bat rays and leopard sharks with my current gear before I buy bigger gear to go after sevengills. I didn't even know there are sevengills in socal until a few weeks ago.

Thank you, do the seasons really make a difference? Sevengills are more common suring winter and spring right? While leopard sharks are more common during the warmer seasons.

Hi im new to this forum and I was wondering if there are any sevengills in Malibu or Santa Monica? I know there are sevengills in Ventura and San Diego, but what about in between? Is there a lot of leopard sharks and bat rays in Malibu? Sorry for asking so many questions but I just started fishing for bigger game and so far I have been skunked. Thank you for taking the time to read my questions :)
