I'm tired of picking out over runs. And my kid is tired of waiting on me to pick out over runs. We're go na go to BPS and get him a new spincast and I was wanting your opinions. I've read some reviews on both and some are good and some are not.

Whaddya say???

Either one of those upper tier spin casting reels are good reels.  You can't go wrong with either one.  Probably ought to get two. 

If there are lots of docks where you fish, that spin cast reel makes skipping baits underneath docks a breeze.

 

I have one classic Zebco 33 filled with 17 lb fluorocarbon,and a 6' med action casting stick. On those few times per year when I go to Lake Ozark, that rig makes the traveling team.  I can skip baits underneath docks all day and never have a backlash.  Saves a lot of time for me.

Yeah, we used to use them to "slingshot" lures under stuff.
