Preparing for the trip of lifetime.
Never been to New Cal. Known close friends that have experience are Darren, Eidi, Fendi and Gobin.
Based on their experience, min rod and reel are PE6 where easily bullied by mama GT. PE8-12 are more advisable.
Based on photos, LPB's Jack Yvan is very nice Antares class boat.
So now sorting what to bring. Also testing how many rods can Carmate or Nature Boys rod case can accommodate.
Big challenge is to limit Qantas luggage 23kg including rod case.
Probably will not bring any jigging rod i.e. will use popping rod to jig. And only bring few (less than 10 jigs - few Hookers and JMs).
List below will be censored to meet the 23kg limit.
