I've never had any problems with my Mitchells. I started out when I was around 6 with a Mitchell 300. I now use the Mitchell 300X quite often. I've not seen the 308, but I wouldn't hesitate to try it out. Mitchells have always been good to me.
As far as lures, spinners can be very good. Panther Martins, Mepps, Blue Foxes, etc. Even Jakes are very good. I also wouldn't look past soft plastics. I know they are marketed for bass, but they work great for trout too.
Are you looking to park and cast/retrieve? If you're looking to troll I've got some other suggestions for you. What direction are you looking at going in the fishing world?
