good beginner setup? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I'm going to get some dirty looks from the born and raised west coast guys, but don't comptly over look the spinning option. If your a beginner, casting a spinning reel is 10x eaiser and with your target species a spinning combo is perfectly suitable. I've got a couple Okuma Cedros with 40 and 50lb braid work in any kayak situation a conventional reel would be used.
