Thought I would put some spinners up. My Daiwas will be first, then I`ll do some other brands.
Top left is a Laguna 4000, top right is a Caprice 3500.
Bottom left is Sol200 and right is Catalina 4500h

They even catch fish sometimes.



Top fish is an amberjack and the bottom ones are wolf herring that we catch with 20gram metal wobblers.
We use the wolfies with 6 ganged hooks to troll for king mackeral.

:D I talk with every part I send out and each reel I repair so that they perform at the top of their game. :D

Hi Joker
Yes, I would never be without a few spinners. Very handy tools.

The funny thing is that my first reel was a cheap spinning combo set from our local super market. I have some fond memories of that combo set.

Here in South Africa there is a big move towards the spinning reels. Some guys are even targeting sharks with spinners. This is from shore.

Yes, my biggest spinner, a Shimano Saragosa 14000 weighs the same as my Penn 113h Senator and pulls twice as much drag.
I am amazed at the size of the roller clutches in these big spinners. They can be almost the same diameter as the rotor.
Imagine if they could get that size roller bearing in a conventional reel!
