Hi, first post on this forum, I am sort of in a dead end in terms of research and what to buy and how to move on from this. Just ordered a GLX 844C MBR rod for the specific use of jig and worm fishing (t-rig). The reel i chose to order was a Shimano Chronarch MGL 151 XG. I am second guessing my reel choice now, and would like either reassurance or help in the right direction to getting a worthy and effective setup.
( I have no issue returning the reel that is currently shipping. Cost is not an issue, however I would prefer not to spend more than $500 on a reel.) I am completely open to any new reel suggestions, as well as the effective line size required. Anything helps! Thank you!
