I have used single action reels all of my fishing life but have recently developed arthritis in my right hand. I now find it very hard to keep up when the fish run at the boat. Which they seem to do more than they used to. I have a real sweet shimano tekota 600 levelwind which would do the job well and I would like some recommendations on a suitable rod for downrigger use. I am thinking something around 10'. Of course it would need a casting rod type reel seat. I am willing to spend some money on it. Thanks in advance. Brian.
