    I really like the Shimano Sahara 1000! I have three of them on 5'6" Wally Marshall Signature Series rods. Some have told me the Sahara is overkill for crappie, but I really enjoy the smoothness of the Sahara and I have had great service out of Shimano reels. I use them for casting & shooting w/4# Wally Marshall Hi-Vis line. The 5'-6" does a great job, but like you I am wanting to try the 6'6". I feel it may give a little more casting distance. I plan on purchasing one before spring myself. That should make a really nice set-up.

    Features:
    • IM6 graphite blanks
    • Graphite reel seat
    • Aluminum oxide guides
    • Premium cork split grip handles on 5'6" and 6'6" models
