Fishing Reel Rod Combos Varieties

Fishing Reel Rod Combos Varieties


Fishing reel rod combos have two classifications: the fixed spool reels and the conventional reels. Fixed spool reels are immobile. Conventional reel rod combos, on the other hand, feature spools that revolve and are commonly used in saltwater fishing. These are further divided into three varieties: spinning, spincasting and baitcasting.

Baitcasting fishing reel rod combos
This is a small and conventional type. It can easily fit into an angler's while mounted on a fishing rod. This is used mainly for a bigger catch. Baitcasting fishing reel rod combos are excellent because of their sensitivity to movement by the fishing line's end but they are inaccessible to ultralight lines sizes as well as with "backlash" tangles. Learning how to use this method is actually a bit difficult. People who use this are mostly professionals or very skilled already.

Spinning fishing reel rod combos
Spinning fishing reel rod combos are the most commonly used these days. It has a fixed spoon reel that has housing along its stationary spool parallel to the axis of the rod, spinning around it when the handle is turned.
When using a spinning fishing reel rod combos, a casting technique called "spinning" is produced. However, since the spool is set and fixed, having a backlash is one thing you will never encounter. This type is available from ultralight up to medium-heavy sizes. They are also less sensitive as compared to Baitcasting fishing reel rod combos. They are also bulky because of their large size, along with the bait and heavy lure attached to it.

Spincasting fishing reel rod combos
This is featured as a combination of stationary and conventional fishing reels. Spincasting fishing reel rod combos are angler friendly and are more advisable for beginners. Even children may easily use it because of the simple push-button mechanism. Hence it is also alternatively called pushbutton fishing reels.
