Default Spinning reel for bonefish

This is capt Larry from http://www.keywestflatsfishing.com
steven I would recomend a 7 ft rod in the 6-12lb range why such a
long rod? you will be able to throw a small jig,shrimp, or crab very
far and accurate.spinning reels nothing but a Shimano best drags on the
market hands down. I would also recomend Fireline I use 14lb you can
put a mile of line on your reel and it will cast a mile... Belive me I
do it every day to make my living Thank You Larry

because
I may not have the accuracy required, I also plan to try spincasting.

What
is the appropriate rod and reel combination for bonefish? What

spinning
reels have the best drags? What weight and brand line to use?
