In this article I am going to cover the main differences between two very popular types which are the conventional spinning reel and baitcasting reel
Oppositely, spin anglers maybe new to fishing or previously saltwater only are starting to fall in love with baitcasters
Wear and tear The Reel runs rough or jerky The casting distance noticeably decreases The bearings squeak or feel gritty Performance upgrade You want to cast farther You want a faster, more sensitive Reel You want to get more out of light lures Especially with older Reels or after use in saltwater, replacing bearings brings noticeable improvement
While newer, high-end baits can definitely catch a lot of fish, we need to remember our roots and hang on to the lures that started our obsession with bass fishing
