Patrick,
My first conventional reel was a 9M. I used it to bottom fish with about 10 pound line on it but you could defitely go heavier. They are good dependable reels, not much for casting, but you can cast them. I believe they are the brother to the MAG 10. May not make a surf caster, but it is certainly a good set up for fluking or toggin' or maybe even livelining off a boat.
