baitcasting reels

hi, i might be getting a baitcasting reel and i cant decide between the abu garcia black/pro max or the shimano corvalus 300. I would use this for big barramundi, queen fish, cod and bonito.

 corvalus is pretty bullet proof ( took the level wind off mind and usebdit on my surf rod lol) but doesnt put out much drag pressure

I dont fish either. But fcrom the sound of what you are after i would go the corvalus. I use Calcutta 400TE for live baiting barra but you can still flight lures with it.

 

The Abu would be great for flicking lighter lures.
