Hi

I noticed that all photos about boat fishing trips show people using
multiplier reels.

is there any reason i cannot use my fixed spool reel which i am used
to , also it would save me buying a multiplier for the occasional boat
trip only.

Theres the extra strain with big leads and pumping big fish up from the
depths but if you are fishing light tackle it should be ok, we have managed
without damage so far but not hooked into a monster yet...................
