Starting To Fish: An Entry-Level Spincast Reel
A lot of learner fishermen will begin their interest in fishing in the first place, with the purchase of a rod & reel combination; but conversely,some will buy the rod and the reel as separate items, and may need some tips on what reel to buy. Some of the best ways of selecting a starter reel is to ask other anglers; to join a local club, or to go on a beginners’ fishing school who have kit for hire. One of the most popular choices is the closed face, or spincast reel.
Why spincast reels?
Simply because they are about the easiest to use and cheap compared to other types and easy to come by. Spincast reels are the choice for parents who want to introduce their children to fish – but they aren’t just for the young, they are also ideal for the learner fisherman. As they do not have a rotating spool to overun, fouling the line, the problem of backlash is solved.
With an absolute plethora of reel manufacturers, picking a first reel can be a complicated & confusing minefield: Abu Garcia, Zebco, Sage, Shakespeare, and Shimano…the list of manufacturers goes on. In these high-tech days, an internet search online also results in a mind-boggling array of options, but does offer what are usually the best discounts to be found.
Any Suggestions?
An ideal range of reels is held to be those made by Abu Garcia and amongst their wide tried-and-tested range is the Abumatic series, and a fine example is the Abu Garcia Abumatic 576i Spincast Reel, incorporating innovations such as level-wind mechanisms (oscillating spools), and improved drags for fighting larger game fish. Line memory is not much of a problem with spinning reels, so they are relatively tangle-free and provide comparatively long, smooth casts. More recent updates include the use of modern alloys, making the reel lighter whilst still being long-lasting; and are low maintenance.
Features include:
• Ultra-smooth spool drag system
• Duragear drive
• Instant Anti-Reverse
• Titanium nitride line guide
• Dual rotating swing-arm pick-up pins
• Left/Right hand retrieve
• Comfort Touch™ thumb button
• Pre-spooled with 110 yards of 8 lb. Berkley Trilene XL Line
For those of a technical bent, this reel has a gear ratio of 3.6:1 (meaning for every one turn of the reel handle, the bail arm will make 3.6, 360 degree rotations).
Choosing a fishing reel is a personal one but, renowned for excellence in fishing tackle Abu Garcia’s Abumatic series is a great entry point. Suitable for the
beginner, youngster, and even the experienced angler; the Abu Garcia Abumatic 576i Spincast Reel is a good mid-priced example of a spincast reel.
