baitcaster reel with line counter Daiwa Saltist Levelwind Profile Casting Reel utilizes engineering and design features of a larger reel in a much smaller package Cold Water 350 Low-Profile Line

In the past my favorite rods have been 11ft, 1.75lb test curve carp type, through-action blanks, but I now use an 11ft spinning rod

Popular Fall Colors : Chrome/blue back, red craw (late fall), gold/black back in stained water, and sexy shad for clear conditions

What most buyers overlook about this model is that the VBS magnetic braking system, unlike pure centrifugal designs, keeps braking consistent throughout the entire cast rather than tapering off which translates into fewer overruns when a gust hits mid-cast

Best choice: 3000 or 4000 , depending on rod strength and line size A 4000 can make sense here, especially on a longer rod with 15- to 20-pound braid
