(jeez that sentence sounds dirty) Anyway, my spinner is now switched over to a right hand retrieve.
I am looking for a different rod for my Penn Spinfisher V 5500. I talked with the sea samurai on his facebook page and he recommended a 30-60 lb. rod. I think Chuck D said 15-40 should be enough for a yellow. Looking for something light. What would you recommend?
