avet dorado reels MXL 6/4 GOLD bottom fish or troll Avet Pro EX 80/2 Two

The baitcasting reel is always mounted above the rod handle (of what is known as a "casting rod"), hence its other name given to it in New Zealand and Australia, the overhead reel

Its worth noting too, that there are a select few people with exceptionally large hands that may prefer to use a more rounded reel, as opposed to a low-profile one

The right call when you're regularly fishing 40 lb fluorocarbon or heavier, targeting bigger bluefin, or doing jig trips where you're working heavy butterfly jigs from serious depth

This is an absolutely amazing rod
