very nice rod - I have one and its superb for the uses you are after
although if you want the ability to do light bait work (up to 3oz) you will get on better with the SALT flattie.
I have both and if was buying again and only allowed one I'd get the flattie cos its a better all rounder, but if you ONLY want it for spinning the 10' spin is the one you need.
Cheers
