I enjoyed using my reel for some light surf fishing

While some of our testers knew a thing or two about fishing and had no trouble putting reels on rods and running lines, others couldn't identify which end was which and definitely couldn't figure out how to cast without losing the fishing line or snapping and tangling it

For example, the tip of a fishing rod will transmit vibrations from the line down the length of the fishing rod and into the handle where you can feel it

As for the best weight Id recommend a 1-3kg rod which is more than adequate to toss around most trout lures (deep divers excluded)

Evidence of bears is everywhere
