    You are right on medium light action spinning combo being the best. And you were also right about the line recommendations. I would actually prefer a mono or fluorocarbon over a braid. The braid has high visibility and small mouth bass can be line shy. I will start out with the reel of choice that would be very much suited for your fishing situation.
    You need to smoke another doobie, dude; AND get on the right page!

    A few things to watch out for...
    Using braid on a rod with regular ceramic (or just wire - the worst) guides is that a braided line will cut through them like a saw. You need to make sure the guides have a high quality ceramic insert in order to stand up to the abuse the braided line puts on them.
    Also, some rods are designed for mono/fluoro and some are specifically designed for braid. Usually the slower action (bends through the entire rod) will handle braided line better. Braided line will put more stress on the rod since it doesn't stretch line mono/fluoro.
    Lol. Sorry - I used to work for a fishing rod building shop...

    Dang the only thing I see wrong with this post is why the heck are you wasting your time fishin for small mouths. Mono stetches too much anyway.
