    Here's my gear, do you mind giving your opinion about it?
    Rod - Shimano Nexave AX Tiger Special, what I love about this rod, is the stiffness, and the weight to power ratio. It handles like a bass rod for spinning, but as soon as the fish grabs it, it stiffens and let's you control the fish so easily. I've only recently got it, but I know its going to be one to last.
    Reel- Shimano ST 6000RB, yes, it's a bit big. But when I hook up on a vundu, or hopefully a huge Tiger, the drag manages everything, as well as being a budget reel, the spool replacements/new reels are readily available, meaning its not much sweat always knowing you have an inexpensive reel. Its mainly suited for bigger bodies of water, being so big. Meaning as a Zimbo, I can use it on Kariba, or some parts of the Zambezi (haven't been to upper yet). On a school trip I borrowed my friends one and caught a beautiful 16 pounder, and that's when I decided to get my own.
    Line- 30lb Berkley Trilene, nothing much to say about it, other than I ordered about 1km of it and its been very good, haven't lost one fish to snaps, but we're gonna have to see in the long run.
    Bottom Preferences - I'd usually run a bobber stopper, and then two bullet sinkers (depends if I'm running heavy bait or not), I'd tie a trilene knot to the swivel of my Pioneer Tackle trace with the end clips cut of and a #5/0 circle hook attached with a deaf fishing knot to the trace. My bait preference varies, I sometimes run the middle section / fillet of a small tilapia or chessa, but if I find a small enough one I'll just use it as a live bait, I also use small Tiger fillets, squeaker fillets occasionally and as I said, depending on the weight, I'll decide if I need sinkers
    Thanks for the awesome video! Keep it up man 💯👍

    Your curado dc. What gear ratio is it? Is it the 200 spool? Also what do you think of fluorocarbon? It has no stretch
