Hey mate I also have the salina II 16000 (high speed) I matched it up with the salina rod 37kg, I use it primarily for jigging but its fine for trolling, it is a great outfit and locked up it will stop a 75cm king dead in it's tracks. I paid 100$ for rod and about 250$ for the reel, for it's price I think it one of the best deals out there plus as mentioned it comes with a lifetime warranty so you can't really go wrong.
