While there are a lot of advantages of casting, for sheer fun factor I have to give it to spinning gear. Don’t get me wrong Im still throwing 90% of my artificial on casting gear but long runs on spinning gear are so fun. The reels in the video are 13 fishing Concept TX2 and a Penn battle iii. Both fish are Snook in the 32-35” range.

Given equal fish, I find I can whip fish faster on casting but the gripping can get awkward with BFS gear vs big reds (upper 25 to overslot 30+ inch) But I am am inshore bait casting noob. Just started a couple weeks ago.
It might come down to skill with big conventional reels but I really prefer the fight on a jigging rod with a spinning reel.
