I went through the same dilemma with the 5000.Eventually decided on the high speed as i though i would use the reel more for throwing metal's/popper than jigging and bottom bouncing.By the sounds off want you want to do i would probable go the low speed

Howdy,
I'm based in SA and do similar fishing. definately go the lower ratio particularly for the kingies and Sampsons (jigging or livebaiting). You won't have any problem with the Tuna either with the lower ratio reel. You'll still be able to throw poppers/lures around anyway.
Cheers Paul
