If you're already comfortable with it there's plenty of spinning gear that is great for bay and lagoon fishing. And a vast and confusing array of baitcasters, as you're discovering. If you stick with shamano and daiwa its hard to go wrong. Both make quality reels in lots of sizes and all price points. For bay fishing a small reel is fine. You put braid on it and you'll have plenty of capacity. For rods I prefer some thing fast action with a high graphite content. An out fit I have and really like is a shimano caenan on and old shimano V rod. Works great, is light weight, and was affordable. I'm also still using a shimano bantem that has to be 30 years old. 1 bearing, one bushing, and going strong. Let us know what kind of fishing you're planning to do and I'm sure the wealth of info and experience on this board can steer you in the right direction. Mike
