Defining what a “Workhorse” casting reel is…
The 4500 and 4600 size abus are perfect for pistol grips around 6 ft i have med size hands and they fit just right enough to hold onto and not too much after a day of fishing ..ive found some reels to small like 1600 size abus even though i love them not very comfy on any rods i have ..some others also even me with med hands i like a reel i can manhandle lol

Spinning vs baitcasting (durability)
Penn z series and older pflueger baitcasters the smaller ones with knuckle buster handles..i think these 2 reels will last forever..no springs and you can cast the small baitcasters without a levelwind if u need too

Ugly Stick Carbon Spinning Rod
Not skeered to admit i own many they have a purpose not the best for all.things but what rod is ...with moving baits ..they are perfect though i havent tried the carbon one maybe if they make one with a pistol grip or short handle ..i will try it .fish never did ask what rod was used to catch them..in my 45 yrs of fishing. BTW i use abu round reels exclusively 4500s and 4600 s and they balance out perfect with 9 oz reels
