Nothing like free spooling an eel in the canal or any current and feeling the eel freak out and then your line starts peeling off your revolvong spool in one smooth motion. Turn the handle lift the rod set the hook. My favorite way to fish by far.
When using a spinning reel on the beach or drifting the line kind of bumps off the spool it is not a fluid motion. When you have a hit with spinning you need to step forward throw the bail and let the fish run. With conv. you just hit the clutch and free spool.
Had this conversation last night at the canal with 5/0.
