Help me pick baitcasting reels for a few rods

[xDirty]

I have a few rods and my friend just gave me another 2,  so im itching to buy another reel.

I have a abu garcia black max paired with a lighting shock rod 7ft mh with 50lb braid i was gonna use for froggin. 

I have a lews tournament pro with 7ft veritas medium action, 14lb sufix siege.  I intend to use this with soft plastics, senkos etc. 

Then i have a 7ft mh falcom bucoo micro guide and no reel.

Then i have a 7.3 powell inferno mh no reel

What am i trying to accomplish with the last two rods? Have no idea. I thought you guys could point me in a direction  to where i have different setups for other things like a crankbait rod or whatever based on what i have.

If you had the rods that i own and were given those two last rods i mentioned, what would you put on them as far as reels and line goes? 

One other thing, i probably would only consider buying a lews reel, a dawai tatula with t wing or a *** a. 

Right now im looking at the lews tournament pro g for the bucoo but im second guessing my self wondering if the setup will be to similar to the veritas combo i already have. 

Help me bassresource bros, im a little  inexperienced and overwhelmed.

I hear good things about the tatula. The same friend who gave me the rods who is very knowledgeable, literally has just about every baitcaster reel made since the 80's told me nothing beats the lews team lite and its so light it would go well with the bucoo. I think the pro g is similar only  a little cheaper but heavier.

gotcha. tons of guys like lews but ive owned 2 and they just werent my cup of tea.   is the team lite the one with the eva/cork knobs?.   if i were to try lews again that would be the one i would look at

Hmm...

Have you considered Shimano? We have a few guys that swear by them.

I got a Lews Pro G in recently and love it. Much nicer reel than my Lews SS Tournament and even my 13 A. American Legacy Fishing has them for $150.

I haven't used them yet but I bought 3 Tatulas  this offseason. They get great reviews. Plus you can find them for $94 on Ebay. Plus you can get up to 2 Daiwa/Huk hoodies right now valued at $50+ each. What are you waiting for??

Try to get ahold of a Tatula and try it mounted on a rod before you buy one. I came from using only abu and lews reels and tried a Tatula and hated it because of how it palmed. It was a very nice and great performing reel but that killed it for me and I sold it.
