      Hey Mad,

      Check out the TLD 25's for $175 a number of the big stores are advertising them at that...Sundown Marine have them and I'm sure they'd deal...and a Wilson livefibre either 10-15kg or the 15-24kg if you want something a little stronger (Sundowns have them too - ask for Jason - he's an ausfisher too - he'll look after you you should get a really solid outfit for around $350ish add another $50.00-$75.00ish if you want braid (Just done the exercise myself)

      Cheers

        MAD,

        The TLD range will handle the Wahoo and assorted fast things ,loaded with decent line and put with a 15-24kg rod this will get them in before they get sharked.
        As Rhys said the Live Fibre range will do the job just nice,also the heavier Shimano T-Curve rods are a little more expensive than the Live Fibre range but are a better rod for the money.

        Rhys...Thanks for the plug mate! got some gear here for you too.
