If it has a bail, be absolutely sure that it can not possibly close on a cast. Too many reels have the ability to snap shut on a hard cast and that is no way acceptable. Plugs are way to valueable to lose due to a faulty bail.
Bailess option would be nice also for the medium to larger sizes.


30 lb mono Mike? on a spinning reel? I think that's too heavy for a spinner, too much line twist. 25 max. 20 is usually fine. If you need heavier than 25 then use conventional.

Like the others say, has to be able to get wet and be fine to fish with.

I realize a reel for skishing with, needs to be like a van stall or a saltiga but for the most part for about 150 bucks I just need it to be able to take a wave or get splashed and still work. Prices should be from about 100 for small reels up to about 150-160 for larger size.

Need a Large roller bearing to be able to handle braid, and the roller bearing needs to be smooth as silk and free rolling so light lures retreived with light braid will not cause problems.

It needs to come with a spare spool.


Parts line line rollers and drag washers need to be available readily.

the stem needs to be very sturdy to handle alot of torque

drag must be smooth.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.
