Hello Newbie here in Southern California,
I have been surf fishing for a few weeks now and really have the itch to do some distance casting for whatever lies past the breakers. I have a ton of different reels I inherited from my grandfather and was wondering if any of these would work well for distance casting. I have been reading this site and want to purchase a decent distance rod of some sort...Ugly stick, Penn Guide, Ocean Master etc...Can you please let me know if any of these reels will do the trick? or would i be better off with a spinner?
Thanks!
