If the reel is too heavy, then it can make the whole outfit feel
unbalanced, but an even greater problem is the reel position. It
should be as close to your hand as you can get it. The actual weight
is rarely the problem with such things, the position of the weight is.

On some rods which appear tip heavy, simply adjusting the hand
position in relation to the reel can make a massive difference. The
only real way to find out if the reel you have is OK, is to simply try
it.

For most of my rods and fishing I like to use the lightest reel I can
find. I now use mainly carbon fibre reels for most things.
