Spinning reels are only good for three things: a)Skipping under tight overhangs Finesse fishing with 8 lb test or smaller c) Shooting crappie jigs under docks Other than those three uses, why would you need to use one? Why would anyone want to deal with the twisted line and the lack line capacity? Yes you can probably cast at the same spots a baitcaster can but how much splash do you produce in doing so? Plus, there is no way someone can accurately and consistently pitch with a spinning reel. Don't get me wrong I love skipping baits with a spinning reel--especially in the summer when I need to get that frog under that overhang and in that 1 ft diameter shade pocket.
