[quote davetclown]are you sure you dont want a spin casting setup to be used for everything? I can make suggestions for a combo that would put you on every thing from blue gill to 30lb carp. I dont know any bait casting reel that can do all that...[/quote]Picked up a spinning rig that I could use for everything in a pinch, its a Stradic 3000Fi sitting on a G. Loomis GL2 HSR1021S.
Local shop (here in Alaska) is really only geared towards Salmon fishing, especially at this time of year. Thus the larger rod/reel.
I guess you could say that I'm a sucker for niche gear. I would really rather have three or four rod/reel combos that excel in their specific area rather then one do-all that compromises in every area.
Thank you for the suggestion though [laugh]
