Spinning Combo advice?

[Granite Goliath]

Do you really want a size 4000 reel.?

I fish 2500 and sometimes wish I had a 1500 or 2000. There's still plenty of line left after hitting bottom on a 2500. With a 1500 you can put braid, then topshot or attach a leader. You have a 7ft rod that could be reached to reattach a leader.

As far as Shimano goes, great warranty and I'd not get the Symetere. Seems heavier than listed and I had one freeze up with a shovelnose on 6# line.

I'm not too sure about the Catalyst, but do know that some Quantums have a magnetic system. That system says it's zero reverse, but it does move back before the magnet engages.

Gl with it and hope you get a lot of fish with what you get
