which reel model do I need with 9'' spinning rod?

I would think it depends on how heavy the action of the rod is. I got the light action for trout fishing and was surprised at how large the reel was. I have a 7 foot rod.

3 A-RB stainless ball bearings + 1 A-RB roller bearing. I just bought 2, one for a friend, but I have not had the chance to use it yet. Sure seems like a nice reel though. Looking forward to the first time out with it. I bought the Shimano Calcutta 400B for light to medium duty salt water fishing i.e. sheephead, calico bass, and what ever else bites at or under twenty lbs.

I did go with Cedros 40 and it fits perfectly. The smaller reel has so much drag power that you can easily handle big fish with braid.

I use my reel for mostly jetty and surf fishing paired with a 9' rod with 15 pound braid. I think it would also work very well with a boat rod.

Get a light, freshwater reel. The Shimano FX Spinning Reel looks like a good affordable option, but I can't say from personal experience. Shimano FX1000FB Spinning Reel - 8 lb./240 yds

First I would have recommended a higher drag weight on the reel. It sounds like you want heavy fish, so I would go with the 300 yds. You also may want to consider going to 50 lb. line, between your rod and the drag you can handle some pretty large fish with this set up. Remember to balance you drag with the weight recommendation of the rod builder.

This depends on what your going to us the rod for. I got it for bottom fishing. I matched to a Penn 500 Jig master. It will accept either a 3.0 or 4.0 reel. The big limitation is the size of line you rig it with. Keep in mind the limitation of the pole. It's excellent for bottom fishing, but is suitable for other applications.

I think there are 3. Sizes if the Reel. The smallest model should be the right one for fishing crappies. .

You sound like you're new at this. Fishing is like life. How serious are you? Compared to monofilament line; fluoro is stiff and has a lot of memory, along with its invisibility. I wouldn't try to throw the best 12# size fluoro on a normal sized 40 spinning reel. Instead, stick with a good softer mono, like Berkley Trilene XL 12#, and use a fluoro leader.

This rod is for conventional trolling type reels for example search penn 113h to get a visual. It's not for a spinning reel

The ABS-65a or ABF-90a will be a nice match for a 15' rod. Difference will be line capacity.

Normally all reels are made to fit all rods. You might want to ask the manufacturer.

I would not trust a rod for a reel this heavy that was more than 2 pieces. Ebay had a couple of rods for around $80 last time I looked. Stay with graphite instead of fiberglass.

I have the following on mine and the fit seems just right.Spinfisher V Fishing reel SSV6500, - Best price right here on Amazon.

Starting a child out with an inferior rod and reel combination can end up discouraging them. I would highly recommend the Zebco 33 combo. It is light weight and functions flawlessly.

This particular rod is for spinning. However, there's an equivalent model for bait casting.
