When buying a new multiplier reel for boat fishing, there are a few things to consider. Strength, Weight, Cost, Capacity, and star/lever drag etc. A reel perfect for drifting small worm baits for plaice will not be the same reel perfect for giant common skate.
Penn
Rival Level Wind 15. This is a great reel for kids, it’s compact, light and the wind level means they don’t have to worry about thumbing the line on the spool. It’s also a great little reel for beach fishing for flatfish, small pollock and coalies. At less than £100 it also makes for a really good option for people who are just starting out in fishing and want quality without a big price tag.
No Sealine (Slosh) These reels have an almost cult following among beach anglers, but they are too a good option for boat fishing. Because they have a centrifugal brake system, they can be used for uptide casting, a great technique when fishing at anchor for cod and conger eels. It is combined with a large line capacThis and the 6.1:1 gear ratio make for a great boat reel.
