Float Fishing Reels

Float fishing reels

Float fishing reels help manage line, cast the rig and play fish when using float-fishing techniques. Choose different reel sizes for Bolognese, match and other float rods.

How to choose reel size

Match reel size to rod length and weight as well as the line being used. Compact reels suit many light setups, while a larger spool can be useful when greater line capacity or fishing distance is required.

What should you consider?

Compare reel weight, gear ratio, drag performance, spool capacity and line lay. A reel that balances well with the rod can reduce fatigue during longer sessions.

What should you pair it with?

Choose a reel to suit your float fishing rod. Browse float fishing for the wider method and fishing hooks for terminal tackle.
