Chuck7

I didn't say Diawa..

I said Garcia Cardinal 104
and

Ugly Stick ..it's called Shakesphere Ugly Stick Lite Pro

Oneshot7

Its just me, but I wont have any thing that has two peices in my setup, not saying they are bad rods but I go all one peice. Chuck, could you explain mroe about the handle massing up, I may be able to help you with that . (PM so we dont hijack the mans thread. )

The Garciacardinals will do just fine for what you want to do.

I also like the one piece Oneshot..I don't personally have the 2 piece spinning.I havetwo 6 1/2 foot medium baitcasters one 7 foot .baitcaster..all of them are Ugly Sticks..BUt I also have a 2 piece spinning shakesphere and have no problem with it..Fact I caughttwo 8 pound bass on it with shiners.

The handle on my Symetric is ok but the plastic handle that you hold on to..is already worn and it squeaks when ever I reel and I feel friction..I plan to oil it real good.My other reels that are much older don't do that.It's only one year old..Although it's a nice reel ..I don't see where it's that much better than my Garcia Cardinal..
