Fresh water bass fishing. From a kayak mostly.
I’m a bait caster guy. When I took up surf fishing I bought a Penn Fuego 3000. It’s fine. I just hurl baits into the waves. It hauls in fish fine.
For small bass from the non boating ‘lakes, I got a Penn Fierce in the 1000 size. Again. I just grabbed it and caught fish. I have a tiny Phlueger I backpack with for mountain trout in the Sierras.
That’s the extent of my spinning world. I kinda let the store owner pick my reels
Now? I’m bass fishing a lot. I got my baitcasters figured out. I’m kinda lost on a nice spinning reel. Some friends tell me a spinner doesn’t need to be nice. Some say buy something nice. I almost dropped $$ on a Stradic 2500. But I balked at the price.
How is that Daiwa Procyon AL? Save a few bucks over the Stradic.
