MyAD Choice Awards 2024! - Best Reel!

The vote is open for the MyAD Choice Awards 2024 and we now move our category spotlight onto the Best Reel category!

Every angler requires a reel to go fishing. Whether you are carp fishing, coarse fishing a lake or river, fishing lures for pike & perch or even sea fishing or fly fishing, as anglers we all appreciate how essential a good reel is to our fishing.

In this category, we have handpicked six reels that our team feel not only offer high performance to the angler but feature some of the latest technology in reel manufacture within each fishing discipline. 

 

Sonik Hero X Spod

The Sonik Hero X Spod Reel offers incredible value for money and is packed with several features you would normally only expect with a reel at a much higher price. 

Specifically designed for spodding, this reel features a worm gear drive which results in far better line lay and more winding power, making casting and reeling heavy spods/spombs a breeze!

Loaded with 200m of quality Sonik Hypa-Viz Braid, these spod reels have been flying out the door since they arrived and are a firm favourite of our team for baiting up. 


Daiwa Ninja Match & Feeder 3012

The Daiwa Ninja Match & Feeeder 3012 is renowned not only for superior value, but for the fact that it is packed with plenty of features. 

The Ninja reel offers remarkable winding smoothness as well as the benefit of a soft distance control line clip. The graphite body combined with Air Rotor saves weight and the enhanced rotor shape adds to the reel’s performance under load. All assisted by a geared down retrieve for higher winding power. Perfect for mono or braid, retrieve is enhanced with 4BB.

Perfect for a wide range of fishing styles from fishing a method feeder or float, to spinning with lures, the Daiwa Ninja Match & Feeder 3012 reel can do it all! 


Nytro Aryzon

The Nytro Aryzon Reel is a super value, smooth and reliable reel, which is perfect for tackling carp of all sizes on commercial fisheries.

Featuring a sealed one-way clutch that gives total control when playing bigger fish. It also offers a silky smooth retrieve and great line lay for both monofilament and braid thanks to the S-Curve Oscillation System. A favourite for a lot of our customers, offering the perfect balance of power and performance, that can be used for a wide variety of fishing methods. 


Shimano Aero Technium MGS XTD 

The Shimano Aero Technium MGS XTD is widely regarded as the ultimate Big Pit reel. Created from Shimano’s latest and greatest technology the list of features on this reel is remarkable with every available element of Shimano technology being utilised.  

A magnesium framed Hagane body makes it incredibly light yet unbelievably tough. Hagane cold forged gears for maximum strength, Infinity drive and Silent drive for increased winding power, smoothness and durability and a single piece bail arm in titanium to always guide line to the roller and optimum bail arm strength.  
The most notable feature is the 45mm stroke spool with Super Slow 10 line lay system that lays 107 wraps of line per oscillation to obtain a perfect linear launch, reaching greater distances, more precisely.  In one sentence: Maybe the best distance reel ever built! 

Westin W4 Metallic Trooper 300 LSG Baitcasting

The Westin W4 Metallic Trooper 300 LSG Baitcasting Reel offers the perfect combination of power, style, performance with an array of unique features. 

Featuring one-piece aluminium frame for maximum strength and durability. This reel is equipped with innovative features such as the proprietary Fast Line Connector spooling system, Line View, Internal Centrifugal Brake (CBS6), and finely-tuned gear ratios, these reels deliver smooth and consistent operation, time after time. 

Whether you prefer casting light lures, like softbaits and crankbaits, or need to handle medium to heavy baits, such as larger soft lures or jerkbaits, the Westin W3 Metallic Trooper 300 LSG Baitcasting Reel has been designed to cater for every style of predator fishing!

Advanta Pro Match S4000 

The Advanta Pro Match S4000 is an exceptional reel at an affordable price. An all rounder for all your coarse and match needs supplied with 3 spools! One supplied with a braid ready band plus two shallow spools.  

One feature our team love about this reel is the quick release mechanism to change spools- simply press the button on the drag cap and the spool can be changed! Great for the angler fishing different venues. Not only that, the Advanta Pro Match S4000 Reel is packed full of impressive features such as an internal worm drive system. What’s not to love!
