Spinning reels for lure fishing and other techniques

Whether you are passionate about predator fishing in rivers or enjoy sessions by the sea, the spinning reel is your essential ally for those who want to cast far and fish in all weather. Their versatility allows adaptation to a wide variety of techniques (lure, carp, toc, surfcasting, etc.) and species, from pike-perch to bass, pike and trout.

Which spinning reel to choose?

Rod balance

Choose a reel suited to your rod, meaning a reel that will balance the rod, but also one that will allow you to cast the lures intended for the rod's power rating.

Spool diameter

For a spinning reel, the spool diameter is an important point; it must be in line with the size and positioning of the rod's first guide ring. The larger the first guide ring, the larger the spool diameter should be. The farther the guide ring is from the reel seat, the larger the reel should be.

Bearings

For a casting reel, the crucial point is the spool's rotation capacity. The smoother this rotation and the lower the resistance to rotation, the farther you will be able to cast and with lighter lure weights. You should therefore pay close attention to the number and quality of the bearings in the reel.

The ratio

Another important point is the retrieve ratio. A standard ratio is 75-80cm of line retrieved per handle turn. You should therefore choose the ratio of your reel based on the fishing techniques you want to use. 

Choosing a quality spinning reel means maximising your chances of success on the water. Whether you fish from the bank, from a kayak or from a boat, our models combine lightness, durability and precision for an optimal fishing experience. Make the right choice, gear up like a pro and turn every outing into a memorable session!
