[QUOTE="Brine, post: 138353, member: 1053"] Don't know much about your reel, but that is plenty of rod for you. FYI, and contrary to most conventional thinking....If you are left handed, the reel handle should be on the right with the logic being that once you cast, you never have to switch hands to reel in. I wish I would have started that way, because it's hard to change once you've been doing it the other way for so long. I would stick with lures that weigh at least 3/8 oz to start with, and it would be good to practice with 1/2oz if you have a place you can. I would stick with spinning for tube baits and any jigs less than 3/8 oz. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
