you already bought a reel so I guess this advise is for anyone reading that is still looking. fast retrieving reels are great for trout but with spoons and spinners for steel slowing down your gear can be tough, I often use smaller reels with a slower retrieve for hardware, baitcasters give you a great deal of ability to kill too much action on your hardware, you gotta keep it down, and often fast retrieve reels will make this very difficult, so if your new and not already instituionalized to the spin reel, you might want to go with a baitcaster- just sayin
