I am using a 6wt Sage Launch and an Echo Large Arbour reel w/ Rio WF full sinking intermediate Lake line. I'm not sure its the most effective rig but it does get me into the pinks. Just wondering what do the rest of you seasoned beach fishers and pink chasers use?
Why don't you think it's an effective rig? That's a great beach fishing setup! The only thing that I would do maybe a little differently is add an Outbound or Airflo 40+ floating line.
Oh, and you need (a must!) a hard stripping basket, if you want to cast for distance and control your line.
Otherwise, you're in great shape!
My gear:
Sage 690-5SP w/Bauer M4SL
Sage 691-4TCR w/Baue M3 (interchanges with the M4SL)
Loomis GLX 1086 (9' 6 wt) w/Galvan Torque 6 (this is the best outfit of the bunch)
I have lots of different lines with the Bauers; I think 5 extra spools. I'm probably going to simplify things to a looped shooting head system or integrated heads. I have a couple now, and they are pretty awesome.
