I use a two speed reel ( Shimano Tyrnos 30) spooled with 100lb PowerPro braid. For the rod I use the 6ft Shimano Trevala rated for 200lb braided line. For the jigs I use either the ahi war club or the CandyCatchers 2.5lb squid jig. The 2speed reel makes it much easier on the angler to bring the squid to the boat, specially when you have to reel it in from 800-1200ft.
