Just adding to all of the above info - and I'm not a Ditch regular. There is a learning curve to conventional and tossing 5 ounce jigs AND learning conventional with braid might be a good way to wreck your line, injure a finger, trash a reel and loose some jigs. Stick with the spinner for now but pickup a nice 9' stick and conventional down the road some point with an Abu C4 or equivalent to see if you like conventional. You can try it out on other fishing trips. No sense getting all this gear and breaking down and NOT being able to fish as you learn to fish conventional. Believe me as I learned the hard way picking more than my share of backlashes instead of listening to those that knew better than I did.
