Any reel will work...the most important thing is that your drag works real good.
My favorite flipping rod..and I flip a ton is a Medium Heavy..however you will need to feel them because all MHs are not the same.if you are on a tight budget ..Walmart carrys a nice Lightning rod..61/2 or 7 foot is my favorite...a light rod with backbone.
When I say any reel..I'm not talking about a closed faced spinning reel...lol
I generally use a reel that doesn't cast that great BUT the drag works great..I have 2 such reels..ab
And both are used for either flipping jigs or worms..they are both loaded with braid..
I also will flip with mono at times...that is risky but I get more hits.
