Years ago I used the 500's from a boat and a 155 from the beach. Today, I have a number of casting reels. Abu 5500's, 6500's, and 7000's. I use Penn 525 mag's, Daiwa 20 sha's, an Okuma Contura 203, and others.
I use from a Bway, a 9' Sealine X rod, and from the surf, I use similar rods, 10' and 11'. Rated to 6 oz's.
I do eels and plugs with these rods and reels.
Now, if I were to toss weight and bait, I would consider the 500, but with a Pinnacle heaver rated to 9oz's. I have one rated to 12 oz's as well. I don't use the latter two that much though.
