That reel is a little heavy in my opinion for what you want to do with it. I'd think about a bigger bait caster. But this is just my preference. That is a great bait reel though. Halibut, yellowtail.

Calcutta 401TE. But I guess one should ask, what's important to you? Round reels or low profile? Star drag or lever? Line capacity?? Rod u will be pairing it with?
