You wont go wrong with the fathom.They can now be bought with a mag system.My own favourite is the size 12 which takes more than enough line.Always felt more power retrieving over the mag2s .Having said that if on a budget the mag2s can be bought for a decent price now.

Just read a Fantastic review from a bloke on another forum about the Seigler SM v the Fathom 15 Magged... Very tasty the 15 id say.
