Hi,

I’m planing to buy a new Bait-casting reel but I’m not sure what to buy Round or Low Profile. I’m planing to use this for Inshore Pier fresh water fishing or maybe on a fishing boat for Salmon fishing too. I want something I can put my rod in a rod holder that is attached to the Piers or boat railings. I saw couple of Anglers in our area ‘Pier’ and they are using Rounded ones. If I’m going to get a Rounded ones can use this also for offshore fishing too? I just want to make my money’s worth by buying just one good reel that can do both. What reel would recommend base on your choice above whether Round or Low Profile if you have a budget of $200. I heard a lot of good things for Low Profile reels but I’m not sure if it can handle Big Salmons.

Thanks

First, yes low profile reels can handle salmon just fine. It just matters if you have a better quality baitcaster. Lower end ones are going to flex under the tension from the pressure of the fish. Also, lower end reels tend to have lower quality drags that aren’t going to hold up.

For pier fishing, it’s almost always going to be more beneficial to have a round baitcaster as opposed to a low profile. The reason for this is because rounds tend to have more line capacity and bait clickers. Bait clickers (line alarms) are nice to have when pier fishing because it will let you focus attention on other things while fishing as opposed to having to literally constantly watch your rod. I’ve know people who have lost rods over the side of a pier because they got a take down from a large fish. It’s not pretty…it downright sucks! For salmon fishing from a boat, a round is generally preferred as well. The thing with boat fishing for salmon, especially in the ocean, is going to be the necessity for line capacity. In a river, there’s not too far a salmon can run, but oceans are a little different.

The abu garcia ambassadeur series are good all around reels at a very affordable price. Most of their reels in the 5000 and 6000 series have bait clickers and they will hold enough line for most applications..

If you’re looking for a low profile reel in the sub $200 range, then I would take a look at the Shimano Curado 300. They are a higher capacity low profile reel that has enough performance qualities that will handle just about whatever you can toss at it. They retailed for 249, but are on sale for 199 at most places. I wouldn’t recommend getting the Curado E (the newly released green curado). They aren’t proven and are rumored to not be as good as the curado D (grey in color), Other than that, there’s the Abu Garcia Revo INSHORE, a higher capacity higher end reel. It has good reviews.

Good luck….

what causes backlash on casting reels? is there a setting i can work with? do i need to use heavier lures? weights? Lighter/heaveir line?
i have an abu garcia ambassador red from walmart, using 20 pound test line…it was like, $100 bux.

The drum is turning faster, than the line is going out of the rod tip, Thus a bow in the line it snags together, then backlash,s, Cure, practice, Put your thumb on the line on the spool,drum, to slow the drum, As the line go"s out. Thus no backlash but a shorter cast. So cast over,and just past, your target, Start slowing the spool, with your thumb 3/4 of the way to the target, This will let the lure,bait, drop on to the target, It takes lots of practice to become good at this, But allow"s the most accuret cast you can make with spinning rods posible. So practice,practice, &, practice

Also how does the different types of fishing line effect casting with baitcasting reels?

In part is less line friction with smaller diameter lines but it also is the rod(action & length),reel(spool design) and weight of lure or weight used for casting!
Any properly set up rod n reel will be able to cast some distance but what are you looking for?
With the advent of the braids we can put heavier lb line with smaller diameters on reels which can increase casting distance.

every time i loosen up the spool so that the jig will go far, the spool overruns and knots up

I assume this is a baitcasting reel. You need to adjust the braking properly for the size/weight lure your using.
If the reel is directly out of the box. First, tie on the lure you are going to fish with. Then hold the rod at a 45 degree angle. With the bait reeled up to the tip, release the spool so the bait falls to the ground Keep your thumb on the spool so you don't over-run. Adjust the brake knob on the side of the reel so that the bait falls to the ground and the spool stops at the same time the bait hits the ground. You are then ready to cast. Try not to cast directly into the wind, it will create a birds nest. Practice this way until you become more proficient with using your thumb. Then you can adjust the brake to your liking. This is the best way to start. Asjust it that way everytime you change your lure.

I live in Washington and need to pick up a casting rod for steelhead this winter. I bought a nice Shimano Tekota reel, the 500LC. I'll be using it out on my drift boat mainly.

Stick with All Star, Fenwick or G-Loomis like this 9'9" heavy action with a long handle for extra leverage and balance. Since you are fishing from a boat, you might even consider a 10'6" model good for 2-8 oz baits and 10-40 lb test.

Best of luck to you!
