if you intend to use offshore after the trip, get 4000. but if using in freshwater or ponds 3000 is enough unless you kiasu cos should be same price

Anyway where you guy's normally fish? I am still very new to fishing that's why ask alot of newbies question!

its okay hahas everybody is here to learn peace goes freshwater luring alone, offshore and some of his secret saltwater spots while for me.... not much budget so only freshwater for the moment and maybe only once or twice offshore per year?

As patrick suggested, if you're leaning towards pond you might want to get c3000 for the lighter weight benefit. If you're more into offshore, the little extra line retrieval rate and torque from 4000 will be most useful. You can get away with 4kg drag for either use, assuming you're not hooking onto something extraordinary big.

unless you super lucky.... (or unlucky) like my uncle
I've used Berkley whiplash before I find it pretty good and it has low line diameter which lets you load plenty of line. I'm also interested to try out PowerPro Super 8 Slick which is 8 plaited, making the line more smooth. Other popular lines you might want to try out are Fireline or Spiderwire.

Local offshore 6-12lbs can take it?
I was thinking 10-20lbs so that i can use it for local offshore as well. Hmm Should i go back changi and change to 10-20lbs or just stick with my 6-12lbs. lol
It's fine on pond but you'll find it a little too light on offshore. 10-20lbs Salty grants you the use of heavier sinker, that's a big plus on offshore.
