Okay, I'll "bite." At the end of the month, I will be moving to an
area of the US more known for carp than trout. When I lived there last, I looked for, but could not find, an affordable quality anti-reverse, multiplier fly reel. Carp are notorious for huge runs right at you and then a quick turn to the side, hence the desire for the above mentioned real. Questions: Does this reel come in a multiplier form? If you fight a fish from the reel, the multiplier format would be to your advantage. Anti-reverse and multiplier would seem to be the optimal marriage. How does the anti-reverse set up work with fine tippets? I am familiar with anti-reverse reels in a baitcaster format. When using an anti-reverse baitcaster I would normally put on a higher breaking strength line. With this "graduated" anti-reverse, is there a setting that would ensure you do not put on so much pressure that your would break your tippet? If its just "feel" then I could imagine a lot of break offs due to the extra adrenaline imparted by a big fish. Thanks in advance. Would like to give this system a test run on some of the big carp in Omaha. Frank Reid |
