So I bought some stuff from Bass Pro that was on sale and you don't get to see it in person and I got a couple spinning reels that are SMALL.
The reels are Okuma Avenger (great reel) 15s. Anyone catch trout on a reel this small? The thing only holds about 120yards of 10lb test.
It looks like a reel you would see in a nativity scene somewhere. Anyone fish this light? I have a mitchell 308X that is about the same size.
I am going to give them both a shot and report-back.

You will love fishing with the small stuff. That is until you get a wall hanger on the other end.
WHOSE FISH IS IT?

I was thinking that.
15 series might be "just good enough to get me beat."
