No problem with the heavy duty Zebcos...
check out http://www.zebco.com
but you have to keep tension on your line
when you wind back in..If not kept tight
your line will dig in the line already
on the spool and when you go to cast the next time
it will hang up. You also will have a problem with casting far.
The 1/2 inch hole the line comes out of will stop you
from long casts. Not so much at 1st, but later when you loose
some line and the line becomes becomes stiffer. Get use to a
spinning reel now...it's a 100% better in the long run.

om...
I have been using my friends old spinning rods and it was kind of
crappy. The spinning was kind of rusty and I had to stretch my finger
out and change my grip every time I had to cast out. I tried a push
button rod/reel the other day and it seemed really convenient. I like
how it is really easy and how the little hook acts like a pistol grip.
Do people usually frown uppon these? I know in snowboarding, that
people always recommend against using click-in bindings because they
don't offer the kind of control that is found on normal strap-in
bindings. I myself would NEVER use click-in bindings. Is this how push
button reels are looked at in fishing?
