I wouldn't be concerned with a Fin Nor. They caught alot of fish last year. A reputable Cape Cod guide uses them exclusively and he catches a ton of them. We caught multiple fish on them last year without concern. This years class if they come up will be very very tough to catch with spinning gear regardless of who makes it. Problem is that the fish will be bigger stronger and harder fighting than last year. Plus catching these fish with spinning gear burns them up and ruins meat quality and reduces survival rates drastically. That being said that first hit and run on a spinning rod is what it is all about.
