This is my first post, and I just wanted to thank everyone for the wealth ofinformation within this site.

My story: My folks have a home right near the mouth of the Bass River in West Dennis, MA, and I have been fishing the private marina right near their home since I was a little kid. This marina may be the easiest place to catch small schoolie bass in the world, and over the years I have probably caught 1000+ bass. However, all of those fish only yielded one keeper, and that was a few years ago. I am looking to change all that this summer. I have a friend with a boat that is on the exact same mission as well. So, this summer, I will be fishing the Bass River, Bass Hole/Chapin Beach, the Nauset Beach area, and most of all: boat fishing the rips of monomoy. I will catch a few hogs this summer - that you can count on.

However, I need a new rod/reel combo, and I have no idea what's any good. I know what lures, baits, and rigs to get, but I have no idea what I'd need for a good spinning combo. Could anyone suggest a good rod reel combo for the fishing I'll be doing?
Hey Don!
i live on long island and i just got a spinning setup for myself, you might want to try a reel from Penn, thats what i use and i think they are the best, try the spinfisher ss series, i just bought the 6500 and its great, also i use st.croix rods but you may have your own preference, just wanted to help u out later
