Baitcaster for a beginner?

I too am a rank amateur and was looking for a good starting rig. A gentleman at Gander Mountain sold me a Daiwa Exceller rod and reel, a nice basic rig, said that yes, a bit more expensive than some other rod/reels in the rack but that once I got onto it, it would serve me well. Still learning and building bird nests, but I'm working on it. Tight lines!

I got something at Dicks Sporting Goods that was on sale... for about 50, I got an Abu Garcia silver baitcaster matched with a Berkley lightning casting rod. I checked... it usually goes for 120 so not only is it good quality but hopefully it will last him... did not break the wallet which was nice. Thanks to all who answered.

I really like the low profile and the feel of Baitcasting Reels. They take awhile to learn how to use with most lures. I have some <a href="http://www.outdoorsporting.com/Fishing.asp">Curado Baitcasting Reels</a> I really like and use 90% of the time. I use with very small and light lures my spinning reels.
