Eorfunately. it is a simplematter
to avoid huying a mishegotten cross

the spool in the exact opposite of

As for rods, most who are i-x
--perienced with this type of fishing
seem to prefer the seven-foot
length, although many advocate
shorter ones. The rod must !><• l
flexible enough to betid well in
easting lures from one eight to one
quarter ounce. Bamboo and hoi-'
low glass rods work about equally
well for spinning. Solid glass rods
‘ are fine in lengths up to around
. j six feet, but in longer lengths they 1
[j tend to become top heavy :md slow
i j in action.
Some experts maintain that it’s a 1
1 1 trifle easier to learn spinning with'
Tbraided line, hut practically all that
jl know use monofilament. For
really good casting with fresh.-wa-.j
;*ter spinning lures, one shouldn’t
use line nwr foil i imiind t« >f. Put j

quite well, and an eight-pound rani

One more important point

ing. This way V".i allow both for

ameter of line on ill,, spool. Set
