What combo for drone fishing?
A 12-14ft heavy surf rod paired with an 8000-14000 spinning reel spooled with 50-80lb braid. Needs heavy line capacity and the backbone to handle large sharks and mulloway from the beach.
Can I use a drone combo for regular surf fishing?
Yes — they're essentially heavy surf combos. Perfect for casting large baits for mulloway and sharks even without a drone.
What's different about a drone combo vs regular surf?
Drone combos tend to be heavier rated (they fight larger fish regularly), have bigger reels (more line capacity for long drone drops), and use heavier braid (50lb+ vs 20-30lb for regular surf).
How much should I spend on a drone fishing combo?
Budget $300-600 for a reliable drone combo. The rod and reel need to handle extended fights with large fish — don't go too cheap or you'll lose fish and gear.
