Location: Central Minnesota | Ive had good luck with the saltist for rubber. It kind of sucks for lighter stuff (bucktails) but for the money it is great for big rubber. |

Location: Minneapolis | I use the saltist 20 for big rubber and bringing in spinners real fast. it picks up line too fast for rubber IMO but it still works well. |

| Saltist 20 is what I have, A double cowgirl is the lightest lure I want to ever throw on that set up |

| I use the 20 Saltist With levelwind. Casts good with heavy baits, I can even throw small bucktails with the correct wind. It's pretty fast, and decent quality for the money. |
