Question- What size Fin Nor Marquesa Reel?

Name: Nick H

Subject: Marquesa MA12-16 or MA20-30
Message: There are a few videos of you two fishing with Fin-Nor's new Marquesa reel. I was wondering which size you use? Im looking to get one but I don't want to have an undersized or oversized reel. When your were catching those sharks which model were you using? Im just looking to have a nice sturdy reel that can handle some sharks as well as larger size sport fish. Thanks big fan of the show!

Hey Nick,

I have found that the size 12 and 16 Marquesa is perfect for what I do.

The stats look like this:

MA12  270 yds. / 15 lb. mono   or 270 yds. / 50 lb. braid    max drag- 23 lbs.   ratio 6.1:1 / 43"      $279.95

and the 16

MA16  290 yds. / 20 lb.mono or 400 yds. / 50 lb. braid       max drag-23 lbs. ration 6.1:1 / 43"     $299.95

The 12 is my favorite reel but I do find it necessary to bump up to the 16 occasionally.
