Are you putting the handle on the left or the right side of the reel? I’m right handed (so my handle is on the LEFT side of my reel), and it screws in ANTI clockwise. If you’re left handed and you have your handle on the RIGHT side of your reel it’ll screw in clockwise. Does this help?

Being 3 section they are LONG travel rods (allow 100cm in a BIG suitcase!!) That’s why I sold mine, better action rods are available ie the long tip + handle version in a rod tube.

Interesting and very informative video. The guys in australia are explaining pretty well the gear they are using but there's a complete different world with the fish they are catching. I got myself 2 expensive set ups (zenaq tobizo + saltiga) but can't really go wrong with them. I'd advise anyone to get the top quality gear for this type of fishing if they can afford it. All my lines are Varivas and BKK hooks on all poppers, jigs and stickbaits... If I may I would suggest the PR not instead of FG. I'm off to Egypt, by Sudan border, next month. It's meant to be great for GT fishing if is on your list. Guanacaste is on the list for end of the year. Tight lines and keep up the good work.

I personally find it a bit smoother if you using a longer leader. The issue showed at the end of the video, I never had it with the PR. You can finish off the FG with some dental floss as another fellow fisherman recommended and that should do the trick. They both brilliant but a pain to do it on the boat or rocks :) tight lines
