Luya choose fishing wheel, is very important, a good fishing wheel to fishing experience, I think can be 200% high.

Today I will talk about how to choose a suitable fishing wheel for yourself.

There are two specific types of fishing reels, a spinning wheel and a transverse axle wheel. The structure of the two kinds of fishing wheels can be said to be very different.

First of all, I would like to give a conclusion to the current, the newbie is recommended to choose the spinning wheel, because it is not easy to blow up the line, and the versatility is very strong. The teardrop reel is recommended as an advanced choice for newbies after they have learned the art of selecting bait shapes and controlling the bait.

Spinning Reel

Horizontal Axis Reel

Spinning Reel

Spinning reels are easy to operate, don't blow up the line, and can be used to cast super small baits. It unloads evenly after a strike, and the feel of the cast isn't terribly different from the expensive ones, even with a very cheap starter spinning reel.

Choosing a spinning reel. We generally need to consider the size of the line cup, the braking force and the speed ratio of the fishing reel.

The size of the spinning reel is 500-800-1000-2000-2500-3000-4000-5000, which are the most common sizes. There are also some line cups for sea fishing that can go to a depth of about 14,000, which are less common and not very suitable. They are not introduced here. The main expression of the line cup is the capacity of the fishing reel and the diameter of the fishing reel, for example, the Stella 1000 line cup, its capacity is pe190 meters of the size 1. Stella 2500 size line cup, its capacity is 320 meters of pe 1. You can see it's a progressive relationship.

There are some thread cups that have an s at the end of the size, such as 1000s, which means the same size with less capacity. We can also make a choice based on our needs.

But for specific parameters, we still have to refer to the official data.

General freshwater fishing, depending on the species of fish, we can choose different corresponding line cups.

White Stripe, Horse Mouth, Red Eye, we can choose the line cup of about 500~1000. With s can also be.

Red eye, perch, carp, these fish are slightly larger, I recommend choosing 2000~2500. this depth of line cup is I personally think the most suitable for domestic waters as a panfish wheel.

If you're dealing with larger fish, such as grouper, otter, shellfish, etc., or sea fishing, black fishing, etc., I recommend 3000~5000. I recommend choosing 3000~5000 size line cups, they can accommodate bigger and thicker lines to deal with bigger fish

2. Cross Shaft Reels

There are two types of cross shaft reels, one is teardrop wheel and the other one is drum wheel, they work on the same principle, and there are even some core technologies that are similar.

The selection of the cross axle wheel is slightly more complicated, mainly the following points.

Braking method

This braking method considered in the transverse axle wheel is not the braking force after hitting the fish, but also the braking of the wheel on the line cup when casting. It is divided into two main types, centrifugal brake and magnetic brake. Centrifugal brake casting distance is obviously better than magnetic brake. The magnetic brake is more stable and more suitable for novice use. Personally, I recommend the use of magnetic brake wheel for newbies.

The difference between the wheels

A major factor that affects the casting of the horizontal axle wheel is the weight of the axle wheel. What determines the starting casting weight of a transverse spool wheel is often the difference between the line cup, which is very different between a transverse spool wheel and a spinning wheel. It can be categorized into three types.

Far casting wheels: the line cup is very deep and can hold a lot of line. But it is generally heavier and not suitable for casting baits with too low a weight.

Spinner reels: the line cups are specially optimized with fine fishing lures in mind, and they are generally lighter in starting weight. However, they have less line capacity, and sometimes there is a risk of line cutting when encountering large fish.

General Purpose Reels: The performance of these reels is in the middle of the range between long casting and spinnerbaiting, which is moderate and suitable for casting most of the baits. But the minimum lower limit is still relatively high.

Besides the difference between these two wheels themselves. One of the most important things to consider when choosing a wheel is the braking power of the wheel itself, which is common to both spinning and teardrop wheels. However, it is not true that the amount of braking force that a wheel has can only catch as many fish as it is capable of catching. For example, if I have a wheel with a brake force of 5KG, and it locks up completely, it will produce 5KG of pulling force. At this point if the fish's force exceeds 5kg, the wheel will be slow out of line. This time is equivalent to the fish running under weight, it only takes ten or twenty seconds when the fish will get tired. At this point we can retrieve the line and pull the fish back. Repeat this process. We can catch more than 5kg or even 15kg of fish. So when you buy a wheel, you don't need to blindly choose a wheel with a big brake force, which will only add weight.

Only need to learn the above methods of selecting fishing wheels, it will be easy to choose the right wheel for you.
