is this for an open face or baitcaster

Do not buy daiwa rod - they are junk - spend a bit more for quality ugly stik

They make it for both spinning and cast. If it is linked correctly this is a casting or baitcast. Look for cast or baitcast, something, versus spinning which is different..

Yes. This is a feature you will find on most reeks. Regarding the Trio, I have the 30 matched with a Tarvos rod and it is my favorite combination at this moment. I usually fish for Lane, Mutton and Mangrove snapper. I recently landed a four foot Bonnethead shark with this combination. Fantastic fight!

Casting and closed face reelsmwould be fine spinning reels would probably hit door since they are wider

Great rod and real for ponds and lakes. Model 33 is an upgrade from a basic reel. I use them to teach kids (6th graders) to cast and then go fishing.

I used it for Striper and Blue fishing. It's average sized for Montauk fishing. I like it and it's a good reel for the price. I will warn you its a Penn reel but it's made in China.

Thats what I bought it for and it works great. As with anything used in salt water, be sure to rinse it good with clean water at the end of the day. I have thrown lures as heavy as 7ozs. and the rod performs well.

No. The 3/8" mesh is too big for small bait. Their gill plates get caught in the mesh and you kill the bait trying to free them. Go down to a smaller size mesh for smaller bait.

This rod can be used for fly or spinning so either or both reels will work. I would probably opt for spinning if the person is just getting started.

You could throw a line out, for tarpon fishing with cut bait etc, but not really a casting rod. I will tell you that it is a very nice looking and light , easy to handle boat rod, but I would not want to cast it all day as if you were fishing for reds or something. hope that helps

I used the Z03 yesterday and caught 8 crappie and one cat, but the Z03, as good as spincasters get in my opinion, has the same constraint that all spincasters have---they don't hold much line, so they are not a good saltwater choice, where much more line is usually required than for most freshwater use.

This is an UGLY STICK however it is the white version, great for night time fishing. Very strong as the original version as I have 9 of these now and regularly pull in 40+ pound catfish using them. Hope this helps and by the way... the price on here I highly doubt you will come close anywhere else. Reels are so so on the combo rods also.

When letting line out of the reel or reeling it in, the levelwind guides the line onto the reel evenly so that the line is evenly dispersed in the spool. I use this reel mainly bait fishing for catfish and striped bass, but it also works well for trolling. It depends on how comfortable you are with using a bait caster.

sure. It is a pliers in the front with a split ring grasping jaws makes it easy to put the big snagging trebles on the lures we use. Just kidding. We only use single hooks without a barb. Real sports.

I think you would be ok with it. I have never used one for walleye but I have never had any problems with it for bass fishing and I fish them a lot. Only problem I ever had was a bad handle and I just replaced it and was an easy fix. The drag is good and casts real smooth. I would use them for steelhead fishing in the rivers and think it would hold up just fine. I have fished the Black Max for northern largemouth bass in the state of Oregon for bass as big as 9lbs and use them in bass tournaments and again have had no problems other then one of my reels had a loose grip on the handle and I just replaced the handle for an easy fix. I hope this helps you out, good luck!

This reel DOES have a bait clicker, and it is is reasonably loud. Not as much as a larger reel would be, but loud enough to be heard on the beach at the ocean.

I also use mine for bass; 11.25 is biggest so far. I would say that it has a little bit larger spool than most low profile baitcasters I have seen (except those for inshore/saltwater) if that helps...
