bantam baitcast reel Shimano 22 HG RIGHT it’s been around for over 40 years and has a loyal following with lure anglers who want no SHIMANO BANTAM MAG 10SG BAITCASTING

However, adjusting the brake system on some reels can be difficult

I get more finesse and feel from my (braid-raced) C3CT surf reels than stock 1500C non-IAR I built the gold 6.3-geared 4500CT just for finesse micro-jigs (and will have a report after January glass minnow trip) ps - needle bearing headset makes this bike really stable with a big front load (grocery-bag-size Ostrich bag)

Extremely durable, they can take a beating and still deliver the ultra smooth performance anglers expect

That rod is right on the money with the medium-heavy classification
