What makes a good Eging reel ?

[lighter]

Thanks for your tip fishnhook~



Can you recommend a decent rod under $150 ?





For the reel, I actually have a spare and am just wondering if it would be sufficient...



It's Shimano Nasci C3000 and it looks like this:

After reading your post about the gear ratio, only thing that concerns me is the deep spool.



It takes 150m of 12lb mono.



How much line would you use if you are fishing landbased ?





Thanks.
