Hard to tell from the pics but it looks about right. What are you intending on using it for? Nice combo too btw.

it's got newer drag i think they say the body is completely different (yer umm..) can get it in higher gear ratios could be a few other differences too can't remember

Nah mate that will be fine. Just start practice casting with some lures and the controls fairly high until you get the hang of things. Once you get the hang of it you won't want to use spin gear as often due to the accuracy and increased feel when fishing. With casting cast with one fluid motion, that's one of the more helpful tips I came across

I have one, but it's a Tinnie and Tackle Show special, not worthy of such company!!

I cast a de-hooked lure at a bucket with it.

The wishlist is still long.
Jigging, more light gear and more medium gear... And maybe another GT setup....

I like that the handles on your reels are all in the correct side

Yes they are definitely on the correct side...left hand wind rules

[chris268]

They used to be on the other side but after one session getting used to a left hand retreive, I havent looked back.
