This is a bit complicated to explain in words ...
Most boatman in Rompin are pros in Sails hunting.
Use the magic word and I am sure they are willing t show you the ropes ...

Btw ... the fist thing when you set off ... you need to get some bait fish.
So please prepare some tamban jigs ... selar, kunnings, tamban, kamongs etc etc ...

Next ... go find the birds !
Yes ... I am not joking ... you see flock of birds ... that's where the Sails are playing too ...
Use mutu circle hook size 3/0 - 5/0
Use the whole bait fish ...

Don't forget to buy lots of lots of balloons !

What do you mean by big ? What do you mean by small ?

I have seen ppl using 2500 reel to play sails ...
I have seen ppl using 8000 stella to fight Sails too !

Your intention here is clearly to test your Phantom J and not the Sails.
So why worry about big or small, 4500 or 6000 ?

How big a Sail you gonna get is still a big question mark.
No one can guarantee you a big Sails.
Will you be disappointed if you did not land a Sail ?
There is a chance of it happening you know ...
Why not get it plan and go have some fun ...
Too much worrying or questioning can end up with bigger disappointments !
