    Skipping Reel

    I’m looking for a closed face reel for skipping docks. It is for my grandson so I want the best quality. Your recommendations are most welcome

    By closed face do you mean spincast like the Zebco 33?

    Zebco makes the bullet closed face spincast that's a quality reel and Diawa makes a closed face underspin that would make a good skipping reel.

    Unbeknownst to me they have some very expensive spuncast reels. Let us know what you pick and how you like it.
