The Spinning Reel
The spinning reel is one of the most popular reels used for both freshwater and saltwater fishing. It was originally created for artificial lures and lighter tackle. It is a great trolling and casting reel.
A spinning reel is a fixed spool reel, and the line is retrieved by a device called a bale. As you rotate the handle, the bale spins around the fixed spool thus pulling the line through the eyes of the rod.
