yep good info on here- I wouldn't drive that far either
CatMaxx is good choice just may be big for that rod
those saltstrikers are real nice and the 65 size may be just right for that rod
I went to both Cabellas and Bass Pro same day and was looking at SaltStriker and CatMaxx and went with CatMaxx mostly to save few $ cuz I poor-- if'n I remember right the SaltStriker even in 65 size was a lil smaller/compact overall and can still hold plenty of 20 lb line

Baitrunner or baitfeeder is a clicker for spinning reels. At least on my Okuma it is. The Okumas are adjustable as far as how much tension it takes to pull line.

baitrunners have two seperate drag systems- with baitrunner on the fish can take bait and run with it with very little drag while clicker screams, turn handle and baitrunner clicks off and set hook and its normal operation - both drags are adjustable

 65 series reels I like those! I guess they only way to get them is from Cabelas. Too bad bass pro doesn't have one similar unless the okumas are not bad?...

Okumas are good from what I've heard- they have like 6 diff. levels and the baitfeeders are the mid grade and higher grade Okumas
