Which spinning reel should you choose?

Rod balance

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

The ratio

Another important point is the retrieval ratio. A standard ratio is 75-80 cm of retrieval per crank revolution. You should therefore choose the ratio of your reel according to the fishing techniques you wish to use. 

If you have any questions about choosing a rod, the rigs appropriate for your fishing area, or the type of line (braid, nylon, fluorocarbon) to fit on your reel, please do not hesitate to contact us via our website, by phone or by visiting us in person at our Ardent Pêche store.
