I've never been able to match a baitcaster reel to a spinning rod. They don't mix. I'd put a spinning reel on it and use it for light lures in open water like against rock bluffs, mid lake ridges & humps, wherever there isn't too much obstructive cover or structure to snag up on.

Daiwa Capricorn Baitcast reels are not that common, when I read your thread I took for granted you were trying to mate a spinning reel to a Baitcaster rod as well.

If you have the 100H I believe this would be an awesome small crankbait rod or for light topwater baits. The short rod will give you control and the fast action forgiveness.

I would give it a shot with a shaky head techniques as well.
