Do you need a good reel or a reel with strong drag to fish for trout? Well, for smaller fish, not really. Tom Rosenbauer shines some light on the benefits of a reel for trout fishing.
Smooth drag is the most important factor in choosing a reel. A smooth drag will help fight a fish properly and keep your light tippets intact while fighting a big fish.
If you’re in the market for a new reel this holiday season, be sure to get one on your list that not only holds line but will also ensure you get a chance to net the potential fish of a lifetime.
