How does a fly reel work?

A fly reel is simply a drum that you wind fly fishing line and backing around using the handle on the side. When you turn the handle, the reel wraps around the drum. 

How do you choose the right fly reel?

Choosing the right fly reel can be overwhelming. They come in different sizes and have different uses depending on the type of fish you're pursuing. Pick the one that can hold the required amount of backing and fly line for the weight of the rod.

How do you set up a fly reel?

To set up a fly reel you'll need to attach the backing to the reel, the fly line to the backing, and the leader to the fly line to complete the process. To get expert advice on setting up the perfect reel, contact us today.

What should I look for in a fly reel?

When it comes to buying a fly reel, there are a few things to consider. First, you need to decide what type of fish you plan on catching. For smaller fish, you can choose a lighter reel with a smaller drag system. For larger fish, you'll need a heavier reel that can handle the extra weight and force. You’ll also want to consider the size of the spool. A larger spool will hold more line, which is helpful if you’re planning on fishing in deeper water.

Can fly reels get wet?

Many people believe that fly reels should never be exposed to water, but this is not the case. The main thing to avoid is exposing the reel to saltwater, as this can cause corrosion (freshwater is less damaging). As long as you take care to clean and lubricate the reel after each use, there’s no problem with allowing it to get wet from time to time.

Do you need drag on a fly reel?

This depends on the type of fish you’re targeting, the size of your tippet, and the conditions of the water. In general, however, it is not necessary to have drag on a fly reel. The vast majority of fish can be caught using just the weight of the line itself.

Of course, there are always exceptions to every rule, and there are certain situations where drag can be helpful. If you are targeting larger fish or fishing in fast-moving water, drag can give you a bit more control over your line.

Does fly reel colour matter?

That said, some anglers do prefer to buy fly reels that match their rod or line weight. In addition, lighter colours such as silver or white are more visible in low-light conditions, which may make them more suitable for dusk or dawn fishing. Darker colours such as black or green can help to camouflage your fly reel, making it less likely to spook fish.
