Today I had a conversation about spinning reels and baitcasting reels with a coworker. He said he rarely if ever uses a Baitcaster so I asked him why. He basically said that anything he can throw on a Baitcaster he could throw on a spinning outfit but not the other way around. He said he has been using spinning gear for so long that he feels he is just as accurate and gets longer casts than with a Baitcaster, and he never has to worry about back lashing.
I thought his comments were interesting but I am leaning just the other way. I'm really starting to like using a Baitcaster but feel as a bank bound Angler I shouldn't give up on my Spinning Reel just yet but am really fighting the urge to do so.
Would love to get some of your opinions on this.
