if you're feeling good, step over to the dark side and try out a baitcaster.
I love the 6'6" medium Ugly Stick with a good open face spinning reel with 15# mono for all around freshwater fishing.
I tried the "Dark Side" 30 or so years ago with a good quality Ambassadeur and got frustrated because of the
infamous backlashing and nobody to teach me.... so back to what I was comfortable with - Spinning Reels.
Now, at 66 years old, and watching all the Pro Angler shows on TV, and the great YOU-TUBE,
I am "cautiously testing the waters" of returning back to the "Dark Side" - - - BaitCaster.....
I now have the 7' MH Ugly Stick and St. Croix 6'6" MH and a couple of bait casters and many spinners.
I would suggest that you cruise some of the Pawn Shops in your area as well as flea markets. You will be AMAZED
at some of the good deals you can find there.
THEN, find an open space and PRACTICE - PRACTICE - PRACTICE !!!!
