straight up my advice to your friend or anyone whos not sure about a spinning rod for the canal is....go to cms talk to the staff and look and feel the many different types and styles of rods and guides used for canal fishing. cms has lots of custom as well as rack rods. try a reel on one and match rod to perfered reel.. if u r going to drop the money down do it right ..... as for the reel .i have several different reels.. empro will give u a little more distance and not so pricey. but after 3-4yrs its beat....than i buy the next new latest greatest reel about every 3-4 yrs
