From one bargain to another! We said the above choice was hard to beat, but this one really is. This reel – well, we should say reels as you get two for the price of one with this selection – comes from NGT, a brand known for good quality products at amazing prices, and the specifications should appeal to both beginners and experienced anglers. They come pre-loaded with 8lb line so are ready to go, and can handle line up to 12lb if you wish, so are decent for smaller carp fishing.Pre-Spooled – does the reel come pre-spooled with line, and if so, what strength is it? This is another important factor that you need to consider if you are to get the right reel for your usage. Interchangeable Handle – make sure your reel comes with the ability to fit the handle for either left or right hand usage. Most are changeable, but you may find some are not. We advise, however, that you take a look at the offerings from Shakespeare, which is established as a mid-range market leader for good reason. The reels we have featured from this brand are good value, well-made and tried and tested, and are very popular indeed, without being expensive or over-complex. The choice between front and rear drag models is down to angler preference but in practice both models provide accurate, incremental clutch adjustment.
