Re: spinning vs. baitcasting for light tackle

The weight/action of the rod for a baitcaster is the bigger factor IMO. I have a medium weight/fast action rod that I can cast weightless plastics a good ways with, but putting the same lure on my medium-heavy/fast action rod would have me only casting it out about 15 feet or so.

For really light stuff as others have posted spinning is the way to go.
