Just purchased and old daiwa baitcaster and an 8ft sabre stroker rod, they both look to be in mint condition, the daiwa looks like a sealine but does not have a model # (not on anymore) the guy I bought from said reel was made in aprx. 1986/87, taking to reel repair shop for lube/ cleaning tommorrow. Is this a good setup for surf fishing? P.S. paid $50.00

Not to get off point here................ but you're the first person that I can recall in a while that actually spelled the word (Daiwa) correctly! Just as Tijuana is a three syllable word (Ti-juan-a) with no "a" after "Ti", similarly, it's Dai-wa, not Di-a-wa.


Not a life changer, but refreshing. Wink

That Sabre stroker is a helluva rod. Nice grab.

Good rig and good call Dave on Daiwa. I am sure I've spelled it incorrectly at times too! Tijuana was a good example too

On the contrary; I was complementing and supporting
the original poster's semi unusual but correct spelling of the
brand of his gear!!!! Cool

Tijuana who cares about the spelling. Its the meaning that counts, Tijuana stands for..... mucho cervesas y mucho putas. Very Happy Tiajuana a great place for young sailors getting out of boot camp in San Deigo. Great rod and reel combo dude.
