Re: baitcasters
I Inherited my first conventional reel some 50 years ago . It was a Pfleuger knucklebuster on a Kingfisher Octagon Bamboo rod . It had dacron and could cast heavier plugs and bait rigs . I graduated to Penn conventionals for most of my Saltwater applications . As a Teenager I started Worm/jig fishing for Bass and got a Shimano Bantum 1000 used at a Fishing Flea Market and used it for years . When it comes to feel there is nothing like palming a baitcaster with your trigger finger feeling the line under the levelwind . I also line and tip watch but feeling that tap tap is addictive . When accuracy is required the baitcaster wins hands down . The control you have on a hooked fish is also better than spinning .
