Choosing a Fly Reel

The definition of a fly reel has changed a great deal in the last
couple of decades. Once thought of as simply ” a place to hold
your line” the fly reel has evolved into a highly specialized
piece of gear. With phrases such as “startup inertia”, “large
arbor”, and “heat dissipative disc drag”, the beginner can often
be led to believe that they need to be an expert in Newtonian
physics to make an informed purchase. I’ll try to simplify things
a bit. Fly reel does do more than just hold line. A poor quality
fly reel is a wonderful way to lose large fish, especially when
fishing on light leaders and tippets. Additionally, selecting the
wrong fly reel for a particular fly rod can throw off the entire
balance of the outfit. So, let's get started learning about the
world of fly reels.

Selecting the Right Fly Reel

When looking around for the right fly reel, a person new to the
world of fly fishing will get a big surprise. There's seemingly
just as many fly reels in the world today as there are spin
fishing reels. So let's break things down a bit and try to sort
out the different types of fly reels on the market and what you
should look for when shopping for one.

The Drag System on a Fly Reel

There are two different types of drag systems on a fly reel that
trout fishermen need concern themselves with. The drag of a fly
reel is what provides the tension on the line. In other words, it
is what regulates how easy or difficult it is for a fish to strip
line off the fly reel. If all you ever catch are tiny trout or
small pan fish, the type of drag on a fly reel is immaterial as
it is unlikely a fish will ever pull out line from the fly reel.
On the other hand, if you get a good-sized trout or bass on your
line, the story changes completely. Once a big fish starts
pulling out line from your fly reel, the fly reel suddenly
becomes the most important piece of equipment that you have.

Fishing a Nymph…
I got to the river at around 0930 on Saturday which with hindsight a little optimistic as it was still quite chilly, there was no fly life and no fish moving. In fact I spent most of my time just sitting watching the water waiting for something to happen. When I got b.
