[QUOTE="Jim, post: 14282, member: 2"] Welcome Chris, Glad to have you here, thanks for joining. The Shimano Symetre is an excellent reel that will provide many years of trouble free use. I highly recommend the front drag instead of the rear. For the technique you want to use it for I would go with a rod between 6'6 and 7' in Medium Heavy action. I grew up using 17 pound test, so I know it can be used, But I would go down between 6-10. Are you going to be fishing in areas with a ton of structure, rocks, docks, logs and stuff? Good luck with whatever you choose. :D [/QUOTE]
