I am wanting to buy the wife a spinning rod & reel. Of course she has to pick it out and her way of choosing a rod and reel have nothing to do with performance or reliability. To best descride her method would be that it's a fashion thing. It has to look nice. She normally uses a righthand spinning rod setup with the reel on the top and cranks bass-akwards with her right hand. Today I grabbed a nice shimano and flipped the handle to be a lefty and had her try it with the reel on the bottom. She was okay with that setup. However she didn't like the way it looked so she choose one she liked the looks of, a Quantum Incyte. Anyone have any exposure to these and are they a decent reel? Looking at the IT20 or IT30. Planning on using it for our upcoming guided river trip. Targeted species will be Walleye, White Bass, Crappie and Channel Cats (up to 3-5 lbers).
Don't even think about recommending any bait casters or closed face reels. She doesn't like them.

Sort of confused by the write up and the seemingly unsupportive numbers in the tackle tour review.
