Default Re: Best Spinning Reel?

Not sure why I never see anyone mention this, maybe I'm weird... But I love baitrunners for Bucktailing and Jigging.. for the same reasons I like conventionals.. line control.. I can cast, close the bail, flip on the BR, and let the jig fall on a taught line...making it much easier to detect and react to the bites that so often occur on the drop.. just gives me a lot more control than letting line tumble off the spool on an open bail, trying to control it by hand, , then trying to get the bail closed, slack picked up, and the hook set at the bite.. also a lot easier to maintain bottom contact by flipping the BR and paying out a little as needed.. As far as brands IMO, Shimano is the king of baitrunners..
