Hey, I'm trying to do a research for the surf reel. I recalled I found a site that talks about the difference between a surf reel and a regular reel (spinning). i lost it. i have been trying to find it. maybe it was on the how-to-do thread, but it wasnt there. The spinning surf reel has a coney-shaped cylinder, not like a regular spinning reel that has a straight cylinder. Do you know any site that might talks about it or can any of you give me a little info on it. I want to replace my other reel. Any advice is apperticated.
