Anyone tried the 50 series for Skis? I have a client that bought the 60 but said it is too big and would like a smaller reel.

I've used the 50's and while they are plenty big enough I still prefer a larger reel like the 60 to balance out the rod.

I have been using the 50's this year in all three models HS, Reg and Winch and love them so far! I have smaller hands and palm the reel when fishing and they are perfect for that. My wife also finds it a lot easier to fish with as well. Most of mine are matched up on 7 1/2 or 8' rods and seem to balance pretty well.

There should not be much difference in palming either of them. Same reel, guts wise, but a slightly wider spool on the 60. I threw both and did not see a difference in ''palmability''. Just my 2 cents.
