Maybe my response was too vague, I was agreeing with you 100%.
I learned my lesson about spinning reel 'coils' years ago while ice fishing UL.
The night before that UL trip years ago I bought a cheap inline, spooled it with 3 lb test ice line, and bought a few tungsten jigs. I was also using my brand new Showdown.
That next day I caught dozens of gills, a few white bass, a couple of crappie, a largemouth, but the big eye opener was the carp and the two channel cats I caught.
The 'AHA' moment was hooking the carp and cats all on the outside lip. My assumption is they were tasting the bait, hits I would have missed with 'coils' in my line.
