I tag and release all of the larger stripers and blues I catch. The tagging process requires two hands, which leaves none to hold my rod/reel. Therefore when fishing the surf I need a reel that is forgiving if it falls over in the sand. The Van Staal spinning reels are great for that.
Conventional reels work with many types of lures and baits but I haven't yet found a conventional reel that is "goof proof" in the sand. If anyone knows of a forgiving conventional reel I'd appreciate knowing the make/model. Thanks.
