St. Croix Avid Spin Rod

[jdubya]

I have a Cabo 50 and 60 that I use on my Avid. Either reel would be great and I have been very happy with these reels and have used both braid and mono with no problems. I think you would find the 40 to small for a 10' rod though. I looked into using a 40 on a 9' rod I have and I found the reel just a bit too small. There is a big size difference in reel size when you move from the 40 to the 50. The weight of these reels hasn't been an issue for me.

if it is a choice between the cabo50 and 60. get the 60. they are the exact same reel, except the 60 has a larger spool at about the same weight

I have that Avid 10ft 1-4oz. Use it with a Cabo 50. Great plugging rod, love it. Works excellent with pencils too.

OK then, so far it looks like a decent choice. As long as I don't flinch and get the new Lami Super Surf. Those feel reel nice but you just keep bouncing up into next $ levels and before you know it you have a custom and a VS. The wife might start getting "wise to me" at that point.
Hope to meet some members at MSBA tomorrow late morniing. Snow won't stop me. I'm jones'N
