Thanks, Dave I bought a Lews reel MH2SHand the MH@SHMH 7Ft medium heavy Combo ,For 75 dollars, hardly used, I was surprised how tough it was , I caught a 37 inch Striper 23 lbs and week later I caught a 39 Inch 26 lb striper, that reel brought them in no problem at all,, I found another just like it at a pawn shop paid 58.00 for it,, havent used it yet, but in May & June I will use both,, I like to find a model # that I can put 17 lb test line on and be able to cast at least 30 yards or more you have any suggestions on that I love my lews reels

The swim jigs combination of density, compact size, and high hooking percentage caters best to being a swimming presentation

If its low, tighten your drag just a little and try again
