    FAQS and Details About Fishing Reels

    Fishing reels are essential tools for anglers that are designed to hold and release fishing lines smoothly. They come in various types, each with its unique features and benefits.

    At Academy, our friendly, knowledgeable staff can help you choose the perfect reel in-store and answer your questions! Popular fishing reel types include:

    • Spincast Reels: Great for all anglers and lake or pond fishing but can be limited in accuracy and range

    • Spinning Reels: Perfect for beginners, they’re versatile as well as good for lake, pond, and inshore saltwater fishing 

    • Baitcast Reels: Best option for experienced fishers and a good choice for both inshore and offshore fishing with its great accuracy

    • Fly Reels: Another good option for experienced anglers as well as for pond or river fishing

    • Saltwater conventional reels: Choose these for catching larger fish and to use for saltwater or surf fishing; not as suitable for beginner fishers

    When choosing a fishing reel, consider factors like the type of fishing you plan to do and the species you're targeting as well as your skill level and preferred location.

    Fishing Reel Recommendations for Beginner Anglers

    Spinning reels are the best choice for beginner anglers. They’re user-friendly and forgiving for those new to fishing. If you want a more ‘all-in-one’ option, consider a combo kit. This kit includes both a reel and a suitable rod — making it easier to get started.
