I have always used spinning reels all my life. I have just
puchased some new conventional equipment, a 9' fiberglass rod
for eels, herring and the occasional chunk bait
the reel
is an Abu Garcia 7000 Big Game levelwind. I also had started
building my first rod, a 9' graphite conventional, light action,
rated for up to 2 oz., but since I was unable to finish it myself
due to the space limitations of my very small apartment, I had
someone finish it for me. It is euipped with a Shimano Calcutta
400 non-levelwind. If anybody has any tips for the use of this
euipment, anything that might make the transition any easier,
I would appreciate the input.
