Demotion for the Twitchin' Reel

My reel with the twitchin' button was okay for my tube float, but it doesn't cast far enough to work well with my kayak. To land the lure on the edge of the bank, to avoid splashes, I have to be too close to the bank. So, I'm demoting it to be my jig rig, and putting my T-rig redhead craw on the white Quantum reel, which I don't think caught a fish in 2011, its first year. I really like the twitchin' feature, especially when using my paddle to reposition the yak during a retrieve. The button quickly takes up slack while stroking. We'll see how the white one does. Meanwhile, I'm still impressed with how far the U.S. Reel casts. With my sonar out, I haven't had a chance to test the line counter on the 10-bearing blue reel.
