@Probassfisherman99 thanks

for a baitcast reel u want a little thicker line u want 12lb test + baitcast dont do very good with thin line and the settings on ur baitcast if u want rly far casting distance u want ur knob to be loose and u want ur breaking system pretty low so i would say 8or 7 on the dial with those settings u should be able to cast trick worms fine.

I wanna ask, do the baitcast rod and the normal reel, can use the same rod? Anyone please answer my question.

The rods are designed differently yes, the visual indicators are the trigger handle and the first eye being much smaller on a bait casting rod... Yes, you can use a spinning rod if you want to but keep in mind its not meant for that purpose. Spinning rods are designed for eye resistance & bait casting rods are designed for backbone resistance.

I only use spinning tackle for weightless worms unless I nail weight them. The reason for this is casting distance & light line. Baitcasting outfits are not designed for finesse presentations like wacky rigging or dead sticking. You can use larger soft plastics like brush hogs and 8" worms just fine by backing off of your spool tension as much as possible and just using the break. Revo reels for the money cast about the best next to curados in the mid price range.
