Hiya

Fixed spools. The beach casting fisherman tend to prefer the front drag, as you can solidly lock down the spool. How-ever, for your application, it doesn't matter which one you choose.

Retrieve ratio's. ALWAYS buy the FASTEST speed reel you can get!! Its as simple as slowing down your retrieve rate when you want to work a lure slower. On the slower reels, you can simply only wind so fast!!
