Guys, I just bought a shimano Alivio DX 210 ultralight SALDX21UL and I intend using it for klamari. I will use the same spool and braid which I use for lizz i.e. Braid – climax 0.14 – 11.2kg. fluorocarbon - 0.33mm, 8.7kg

Is such type of braid good for use on klamari?

Also, I have seen some metal jigs weighing round 3 grams. Any one had an experience using them? What kind of fish can you catch with them? I'm thinking it's a bit risky to use them on my new rod since it's ultra light.

Would you know the maximum weight of fish I can catch with the new rod? None of the specs I have seen mention it.

Thanks

i use the same kind of rod but of a different brand for lrf and same jigs max 5 grms. the rod can take even big fish of 1 kg + it all depends how you retrieve. Never try to lift a big fish on the rod, always use a net of the line.
