[QUOTE="nicdicarlo, post: 5704, member: 110"] When you see someone with an upside down spinning reel, you know they are an expert. I have never switched rods and reels. The guides on the spinning rod are much larger in diameter for a reason. Also, generally speaking (for bass/walleye type rods), I have found the actions of spinning rods tend to be softer than a comparable casting model, probably because they are usually used with lighter line and lures. A softer rod can absorb more shock and can handle a fish on light line. Hence, the noodle rod. [/QUOTE]
