I am currently looking around for a second reel and am tossing up between the Torium or Saltist. I currently already have one Torium and am happy with it, but I am still undecided which is the better out of the two reels. It will be going on a 15-24kg Stroker and fishing 50lb braid.

Cheers

If you are doing much casting, I would go for the Saltist which has centrifugal cast control. The Torium doesn`t. I like the drag on the Toriums, but I would still get the Saltist and put a carbontex drag in it.
If you`re not casting then the Torium needs no modifications.
