Thanks for the reply John!

I am also partial to the baitcasters, as you can tell from my fresh-water outfit.

You are the second person that mentioned the ABU 6500 and a min of a 7' rod.

I would say that this would be a once-and-a-while thing as I really love castin' for large mouths. I plan on picking up a St. Croix 6'6", Medium, Fast rod and another casting reel in the spring for throwing worms and deeper spinners.

That being said, I would like to get a middle-of-the-road outfit for the pier / shores, an idea of line, leaders and spoons or other casting lures.

Thanks again for any feedback!

Regards,
Rob
