Freshwater Fishing Tackle Beginners Guide – The Spinning Reel

Welcome back to our continuing series of articles on Freshwater Fishing Gear, we will cover the Spinning reel today. With this series we are hoping to take out the fright of purchasing fishing gear from the novice angler.

We will address a wide range of fishing tackle from reels, rods, lures, baits, jigs, lines, and knives. It is hoped by the end of the series you can go online and buy the right gear and within budget.

We commenced our review on freshwater fishing reels with the spincast reel, the easiest reel for beginners and the occasional fisherman. This article will cover the spinning reel, and will continue with the baitcast reel and lastly an article on the fly fishing reel.

Spinning reels come in many varieties and are utilized by youngsters, occasional hobbyist and enthusiastic fishermen alike. When it comes to fishing reels, the spinning reel is the most well-known and best-selling. It is mainly used for light-line fishing and rules in terms of performance and simplicity of use.

The spinning reel is perfect for landing just about any fish out there; whether it is racing rivers, local creeks, mountain lakes or your favorite hidden pond. You can catch small pond fish such as bluegills, catfish, trout and bass; it doesn’t matter, if you have strong enough line your spinning reel will land the fish.

The spinning reel has a very distinctive look with the large wire bale around the open-faced line spool and a line roller to help hold the line as you recover it. The reel handle or “crank” can have either one or two knobs, both work equally well at cutting line friction as you retrieve it, with little or no snarling. This type of reel is mounted on the underside of the rod.

There are not too many reasons to not use the spinning reel. It is only limited by the thickness of your fishing line, when compared to the baitcast reel it holds less line. This means you will need to use a thinner, lighter line to insure you have enough line to get to the spot you want. The lighter the line the smaller fish you can catch. The spinning reel is also not as accurate at casting as the baitcast reel

An prime example of spinning reel is the “Daiwa SS Tournament Spinning Reel,” priced at $100 it is the perfect choice for serious or tournament angler, it features l Daiwa’s long-Cast technology; a worm gear for perfect line winding; 3 stainless steel bearings; aluminum spool; and super-smooth drag with over-sized felt/stainless discs.

Look for our review of the baitcast reel in the next article in the continuing series “Freshwater Fishing Gear Beginners Guide.
