All around reel?

I have been looking at the baitrunner reel versus the Spheros reel.

I could see myself fishing the canal, fishing the rocks and fishing the sandy beaches.

Is the Baitrunner that much more heavy if I am casting for a few hours?

I could even be fishing off a boat maybe once a year.

I have a strong feeling that this time next year, I might have both, but which one is more versatile?

I am headed to the Dennis for the long weekend in a few weeks to help my wifes grandmother rebuild a small deck. I'll have some time to go fishing almost anywhere down the cape.

Oh...I picked up a "canal bike" that my wifes aunt picked out of the dump at the cape. New Tires and tubes($40.00) and some racks, front baskets, lights and even a kickstand from Amazon and I think I have myself a new canal bike. Bike fits me perfectly. It was a good bike in its day. Granted it was back in the early 80's, but a little lube, wd-40 and some adjusting, works fine.

Any recommendations on the reel and maybe a good valued rod to go with it?

Or am I going to have to get like 4 rod and reel combo's?

Mike.

Making a rod holder for the back of the truck today. To carry the kids rods and mine. I'll post pictures later when done.
