Long Casting Reel
I would like to get some input about what you think is the longest casting reel. I finally settled on a deep cranking rod (7'11", MH, Mod, Micro guides) and really want to launch crankbaits. I'm looking for a medium speed reel, ~6:1 with around 25"/turn. I don't want something very big since my hands aren't very big.
So far I have been thinking of an Abu Record 50, Calcutta 200B or TE, or Daiwa Luna 103. Also maybe round isn't needed to get a super long cast, I don't know. I also will plan to upgrade the bearings if needed. I'd like to have something not too heavy, right or left hand is OK. At this point I'm open to about anything, so let me know what you have used and had the best success with. I have a wide variety of reels now, but wouldn't consider any of them super long casting.
