Default Re: spinning vs. baitcasting for light tackle

While I would agree that spinning gear is in most cases a better option for throwing finesse rigs, The correct baitcast setup can also be really effective and in my opininion much more enjoyable to use. Reels like the Daiwa pixy,Abu Garcia Revo MGX and Shimano Curado 50e are great for throwing extremely light stuff. As far as the rod, I like using something around the 6'-6" to 7' length what has a real strong backbone but an extra fast tip. Lately I've been using a baitcast combo to throw weightless 4 inch senkos with better dinstance and accuracy than i can with my most quality spinning/ finesse rig.
