The choice of a spinning rod is usually determined by casting weight and rod length. Casting weight is the manufacturer’s recommendation for how heavy lures you can fish with. Rod length is often measured in feet (1’ = 30.48 cm). For lighter fishing, like perch or trout, a rod with a casting weight of 5-15g and a length up to 7’ is recommended. For all-round fishing, such as perch, zander, or sea trout, a rod with a casting weight of 10-40g and a length around 7-9’ is ideal.

Family

Refers to which product family the product belongs to. In many cases, there are matching reels and rods within the same product family. These items are designed to work together.

Type of fishing

Refers to which type of fishing the product is intended for.

Example: A spinning reel is intended for the spin fishing method.

Baitcast fishing
Suitable line

Refers to which line is primarily suited to the product. The most common types of lines are braided lines and monofilament lines.

Braided, Mono
Line included

Whether the reel comes with pre-spooled line or not. If the line is included, just unpack your gear and start fishing!

Braided
Rod type

Refers to which type of rod this product pairs with. The most common rod types are spinning rods and casting rods. Casting rods pair with trolling reels, saltwater reels, low-profile reels, and baitcasting reels. Spinning rods pair with spinning reels.

Spinning rod
Number of sections

Refers to how many parts the rod consists of. The more parts, the easier the rod is to transport.

2 pcs
Handle type

Refers to the material the rod’s handle is made of. Cork and EVA (foam) are the most common types.

Gear ratio

What is gear ratio?
The term gear ratio, or 'gear ratio' in English, is a value that indicates how many laps around the reel’s spool the line goes per crank. A normal gear ratio is around 5.0:1 and up, meaning the spool rotates five times per crank. A fast gear ratio (high speed) is typically around 6.5:1, meaning 6.5 spool rotations per crank. Such a reel can be great when fishing for sea trout on the coast, as trout often like a bit of speed on the lure. In modern spin fishing, there are also reels with super-fast gear ratios, over 7.5 spool rotations per crank, used with certain lures that benefit from being fished very quickly.

Are you a beginner and want better control over the lure you’ve cast? Use a reel with a slightly lower gear ratio, around 5.0:1.

5.5:1
Line retrieved per crank

Refers to how many centimeters of line are wound onto the spool per crank. The higher the gear ratio on the reel, the faster you retrieve the line.

N A
Reel handle side

This indicates which side of the reel the handle is on.

Right, Left
Line capacity (diameter - length)

Refers to how many meters of line of a certain diameter (mm) the spool can hold.

N A
Spool material

Refers to the material the spool itself is made of.

Alloy
Max drag capacity

The maximum number of kilos the reel can brake. The more kilos the reel can handle, the more powerful the drag. When casting heavy lures, like in heavier pike fishing, you want the reel to handle at least 10 kilos of braking strength.

N A
Type of ball bearing

Refers to the type of bearings the reel is equipped with. For example, stainless steel bearings.

Stainless steel
Number of ball bearings

Refers to how many ball bearings, needle bearings, and bushings are mounted in the reel.
