Why not use a spinning reel? It will handle light baits much better than any baitcaster.
Looking for a spinning reel for casting 1/16oz 3/32 oz jigs somthing that you could cast all day light weight and smooth is there such a thing out there under 100 bucks? And what line would you pair it with to get maximum distance? Thanks in advance and reel will be going on a Denali 7.6 rod

I use a 25 or 30 in a Pflueger president and with 4lb line will cast a mile. Use 6lb at times and it cast plenty far enough also. I didn't like the size 20 for reason stated above. Kept line too tightly twisted on the smaller spool. IMO of course...We are all different and what works for some may not for others.
I've got Pfleuger Presidents. My main casting combo is a 25 series president on a 7' Lews rod. I very rarely, if ever cast anything heavier than a 1/32 ounce jig. I use those most of the time. I also cast 1/64 and have used 1/80th on this combo. With a Bobby Garland Baby Shad on the 32nd oz I can cast them as far as I want to. I rarely cast them as far as they can be cast, if that makes sense. The 1/80th's obviously don't cast nearly as far as the others but they'll cast further than they will on some micro lite rod combos that I've used.
I just don't see there being a reel that's that much better than the President. I have owned reels that cost a lot more, but don't know that I've ever owned any that fish better.
Another fan of Daiwa, won't buy anything else. And I've had them all.
