I need some steering towards the best reel for my needs...
Excluding Centrepins as I dont have the budget for even a half decent one at the moment...
What do you recommend as a good allrounder to complete a light float outfit to cover some river trotting & small stillwater float fishing...the usual open faced fixed spool or a closed face reel of some sort???
I have read some great thoughts on closed face reels for float fishing but Ive no experience & havent a clue on which are good uns & bad uns???
I will be chasing Roach, Rudd & Perch & highly unlikely to be casting floats to the horizon anytime soon.
