Is this a spinning rod or casting

Neither. It is a trolling rod, so it goes well with a trolling reel or a conventional reel.

A spincast reel uses the same type of rod that a baitcasting reel uses. A 6ft. Shakespeare Ugly Stik casting rod is a common rod. I purchased mine from Wal-Mart. If you can't find one there then try Shakespeare's website (they sell Shakespeare products online).

the one I got is a spinning rod, the difference between a spinning and bait casting rod are within the eyes the eyes closest to the reel seat are larger than those on a bait caster because of the way the line come off the reel during casting it helps each reel avoid backlash and tangles.

It is a fly rod. Good introductory rod, fiberglas construction, with good moderate (mid-shaft flex) action at a very low price. Good for tight spaces with restricted casting space, and will handle decent-sized fish while protecting a light (3-4 lb) tippet. Picture must have simply been a mistake...

The picture shown is a casting rod, but the model # at shakespare makes it a spinning rod.

I could not find any information on my SA #7-8 fly rod, but it casts like my Grey's #7 and #8 fly rods. Medium mid section with a fast tip for easier cast-ability.

A spinning rod in the 12-30 lb category goes very well with this reel. Shakespeare make a Ugly stick that matches the reel really nice. The model is BWS110170. It is a 12-30 lb rated, 1 piece 7' spinning rod. Not to expensive, in the $50.00-60.00 range.

I'm trying to remember...it's been a while, but I don't think it truly cast. It had a string that would go down to get fish but you didn't have to throw it back and forward. My two year old nephew loved it though. Wouldn't put it down. Hope this helps some.

Hi, this models come in two types; NTi C for casting and NTi S for spinning. The biggest caught with this rod is 4kg seabass. Good rod I like it, got 2 now. Happy fishing! Mohd

Hi, LC-C(casting)-902H-1 is casting rod. Top of the rod fit over the bottom part.

Yes, both fly reel and spin reel - not just after a single cast, but multiple times during a fishing session. Usually the top-most section flies out on the line - you have to hope to not snag or otherwise break off the line when that happens or you'll lose the tip! Other than periodically re-seating the joints, I have not found a way to prevent it. In fact I'm looking for a better rod for that reason.

No this is more of a trolling / bottom fishing Rod. Great rod, just the application you are asking about is not for this rod. They do have other rods that would work however...

If it's going to be used as a regular fishing rod, you can select any spinning reel, like Abu Garcia. If you also want to set it up as a fly fishing rod, (which is the cool thing about this), you would want to buy a Fly reel, already loaded with line.

According to the SA description, it is a graphite rod. My rod does not have any markings of material type on it.

I have it loaded with freshwater spinning rods with reels on them. It would hold casting reels as well.
