I was thinking of using it for popping kings in syd and gt in qld, maybe high speed jigging kings as well

Never really thought of it as a billfish reel, but there are some options I'm considering down south

I personally wouldn't have a problem with the high speed, in fact I prefer high speed reels as I find them far more versatile. Most people I'm sure will disagree, and say you need a 4.1:1 for billfish and jigging but I like being able to take up a lot of line without much effort, and I never use the reel as a winch to a avoid stressing the gears.
