Hi all,
I am trying to find two rods to pair with my penn level wind reels that will mostly be used for lingcod fishing.
I've been told not to pair a spin rod with a level wind reel as it puts too much load on the first guide leading to broken guides/rods.
Anyone have experience? I like the ugly stik tiger but can only find in a spin rod (model USTB1050S702).
Having a hard time locating a decent medium-heavy weight lingcod rod for $100 ish !
thanks for any help
