I currently have a bait caster on my 13 ft. Phantom Todd Huckabee rod but I keep getting the line wrapped around the handle as I pull back excess line to swing out again. I think I'm going to go back with a small to mid sized spinning reel and put the handle on whichever side it doesn't give me problems. I also like the ease at which I can strip more line out against the drag with a spinnng reel. What is your favorite reel to use?
