Sweet handle Mark. What reel are you using on that puppy to cast those 'light lures' ?

Thanks guys.

Jeff this is plain? (lol)

Steve I could use some advice on a spin cast ree for this build. The build is light and only 6' long, so I hate to put a heavy reel on it. I like the new Zebco Omegas, but they weigh a ton, I haven't had much luck with the Diawas. If any one has an idea for a spin-cast for this rod please let me know. Thanks Mark.
