    Isn't instant anti reverse referring to the small amount of movement ( reversing ) of the handle in some reels when you pull on the line

    You can control a fighting fish far better when using anti reverse than just relying on the drag/clutch very popular in the UK, not only Carp anglers but example Pike anglers, Cat fish etc. Well done a useful explanation.

  • @shinestar2912
    @shinestar2912 Рік тому

    The anti-reverse gives the angler more of a feel for fighting the fish. Rather than just letting the drag take the run an angler can control how much the fish is running or not running.

    • @sportfishingbuddy1416
      @sportfishingbuddy1416 4 роки тому

      Neither too loose nor too tight. Ideally, you only want the drag to only release line when a big fish pulls hard, so that you avoid breaking your line.

    @grantmu2298 4 роки тому

    If the drag is set too tightly, just loosen it. No need to mess with reverse mode.

    • @sportfishingbuddy1416
      @sportfishingbuddy1416 4 роки тому

      Yes, I do it that way myself. But there are some people who like to use the reverse mode. I heard that some carp anglers in the UK use the reverse function to fight fish, and manage to land plenty of big fish like that.

    Im struggling on knowing what gear ratio should i use for freelining live shrimp on the jetties. What gear ratio do you recomend?

    • @sportfishingbuddy1416
      @sportfishingbuddy1416 4 роки тому

      Well, you won't need a very high ratio since you're not doing high speed lure retrieval, so I would suggest a medium speed gear ratio around 5.1:1.
