Water around S. Padre Island gets so salty at times that the fish leave. I took 2 Curados when I went down there and threw 'em in the garbage about 2 months later. Both spools and drags were froze solid. That damn water down there is like battery acid. No way I'd take my good reels down there wading. I'm sure the salinity in Prien was higher, tho. :cool:

There is a Salinity meter at the Jetties on the weather monitor...


You are right about the salinity W i saw west cove gets very close to 30ppt very often, but i would think that the clearer water in florida would definitely make fishing more of a challenge in florida, and you probably wouldn't catch as many fish there as you would here. IMO

Yep
 
I still have a few of the first aluminum pearl white chronarchs-I get some bearings and gears replaced once a year and I love them. I have several newer green curados and they just dont hold up- I keep those for my sports, but I still have and love my older chronarchs-no reel will out throw it, I pull my brakes back and can throw my spook a mile. New ones I agree have not been impressed with there durability.

I'll be trying some of the new abu garcia's soon including the new MGX...
