So no one uses baitcasters that are made for pitching and flipping only? Looks like every one is using your normal baitcaster setups. Right. You don't need one of those ridiculous reels. You want a medium heavy action rod to learn on. You want a Shimano or Daiwa reel. The less you want it to weigh:The more you got to pay.

Ok thanks. I've been using my 7'3" Heavy Duckett w/ a Revo STX and so guess I will just stick with it. I need to get much better at it...I cannot get my lure to stay low to the water consistently.

For the size fish that I catch, a BPS CarbonLite 6.4 reel and CarbonLite 6'-9" micro-guide stick does very well (short pitching). I use 30 lb braid, sometimes with 20 lb fluoro leader. BUT, I would like to explore the use of a 1276 SLi Abumatic spincast reel, for long pitching. 
Need to improve my LMB fishing, running out of time.

Daiwa 50th anniversary zillion with a 7'0 mh carrot stix wild.
You know the old saying
If it floats, flys, or f___s it is always cheaper to rent!
You have to decide which is more important.

dobyns 765c paired with a curado...awesome combo! Might be more than you asked for but its definitely worth it. It has a soft tip yet it has enough backbone to horse the big ones out of cover
