Hello,
I'm sort of a beginner at fishing.
I have a generic south bend brand 6ft rod 6-12lb rated, with a decent Okuma avenger 4-8lb rated reel. Been using it as a light surf spinning rod.
I will be getting a used 7ft Kinghawk Ocean Trophy rod 20-50lb test from a friend. I would like to use it as a heavier surf spinning rod. Need a decent reel to go along with it.
should a 20lb test reel be good enough? or so i could a little higher since the rod is rated all the way up to 50lbs
I've been eyeing the [url "http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001IBHFVW/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_S_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=DH3T6E6QLYL6&coliid=I24J7A1CPLSGUI"]Daiwa Opus Saltwater Spinning Reel, Opus Saltwater 5500 [/url]
