Choosing Your Trout Fly Reel

[Music] hi it's Nick from the Madison River fishing company gonna talk to you about reels here today we talked about rods in a previous video we'd a lot of questions on what style what kind of reel to put on a rod and we try to break it down into a couple different options for everybody most of them are depending on line weight size balancing castle looming them verses machined aluminum large are ver versus mid Arbor and those are all good a lot of good questions sealed reg versus click Paul one of the major things is you want to try to balance out your reel with the rod for example like the able TR here it is a click Paul reel machined out of pure aluminum it is made more for you know lighter rods doesn't really have a drag system has the original click drags is to click Paul system that's from you know the about two hundred fifty year old technology they're more traditional more you know three four five weight they're a lot of reels can hold multiple different line weights usually two four five five six seven eight you know continuous like that that depends on you know also the arbor size for example the saltwater reels will have a lot more of a mid Arbor so they can hold more backing when the fish runs the permit takes off running you know you got some backing there to help you out a lot of the entry-level reels are more of a cast aluminum it means that molten lumen goes into them they're not as durable they're entry-level kind of beginner style reels kind of have an either a cork system or an unsealed drag system then you deal with the cast or the machined aluminum again it gets cut out of a complete cnc'd out of a complete bar of aluminum way more durable you know way more styling they can do a lot more with that some of the reels have a pressure pull apart spool this allows you to swap spools add spools we've seen a downtick in that than in years past then you deal with the you know clique Paul system which is the you know older technology versus the sealed drag system on the newer saltwater reels and fresh water wheels allows less corrosion on the bearings they've pretty much gone away from the cork and that's just a little bit older technology you know on the drag systems with the sealed rigs a lot of them are able to you fine-tune them nowadays on how light and strong your drag is going to be one of the major things again is the the arbor size you can see here this holds very little backing more of a trout rod compared to the big saltwater rods that hold a lot of baggage if you have any questions about the reels feel free to get ahold of us at 800 to two seven seven one two seven visit us online at MRF c-calm and subscribe to our youtube channel a lot of our these reels all here will be in the links below so feel free to click on them and take a look at them thank you [Music] you
