Good Spinning for Schoolies

Trying to decide whether I should buy a new spinner for the January Tuna Trip.
Currently using an Okuma Epixor EB80.
Will this reel handle YFT at all?
Really thinking of getting into a Penn 950/9500. Any opinions of both would be great!
Even a some uprgrades to my reel would work???
Otherwise I basically need a rig that will do the trick!

Hey SpecialK!

Answered your PM!

You don't have to go to a spinner for topwater, they're just easier to cast and reel big topwaters.

For less money, you could go with a conventional, but you'll have to be really good at casting, then laying the line evenly.
