A friend of mine and one of the nicest, most knowledgeable fishermen I 
know literally wrote the book in ultralight spinfishing, 'Piscatorial 
Absurdities'.  Joe Robinson.  See 
http://piscatorialabsurdities.com/1.html .  Google it.  There's a 
Youtube video out there of him casting.

a spinning reel with a bale. I was so used to the Fix Reel that I kept

I still prefer the Fix Reel over a bale reel. I still have that reel

Google up Fix Reel spinning. It might be there. They were one of the 
first spinning reels to be sold in the USA.

I know this is off-topic /flyfishing/, but, it is fishing.  Just got 
my new Cabelas mag, and there’s not a single spinning reel with a 
bail-flip trigger. I’ve used these bail-flips for as long as they’ve 
been out, but only for lure chunking & retrieving with one-hand 
operation. Went on line to some blogs about bails without triggers, 
and it seems the opinions are divided between trigger users, bail 
flippers, and the ‘new’ /no-bail at all/ users. I grew up with the 
manual bail flip (Mitchell 300s), but never had a /bail-less/ model, 
so went to You-tube for a demo. 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQkHW00VJTQ /Looks/ like it works, but 
I didn’t see any bail-less models in the mag, either.
I figure if I can find out enough about the bail-less, maybe get one 
and see if I like it.  Then, if two guys are fighting over which is

on,

Bail less spinning reels are not new. My first spinning reel was given to me by 
my fishing friend when I was his best man at his wedding in 1951. It is called 
a Fix Reel came from France. It has a tiny roller for the line to sit on. You 
lift the line with your index finger, make the cast  and then use your index 
finger to pick up the line at the reel and flip it back on the roller. I used 
it for years and then got a spinning reel with a bale. I was so used to the Fix 
Reel that I kept getting my finger caught in the bale when I tried to pick up 
the line. I still prefer the Fix Reel over a bale reel. I still have that reel 
and if I can find it without too much looking I will post a photo. Google up 
Fix Reel spinning. It might be there. They were one of the first spinning reels 
to be sold in the USA.

I’m intrigued. Don’t do much fishing w/out my fly rigs any more, but I do take 
a trip or two where fly fishing isn’t feasible. Might have to get me one…

“what is easy?”

 

Well, maybe hand the mess of fish over to the wife after, grab a cold one, 
watch foot-ball, and wait for fried fish and hushpuppies.

Sounds easy enough for me.  Unless you have her bring the beer and operate the 
remote... ;o)

 

I know this is off-topic flyfishing, but, it is fishing.  Just got my new 
Cabelas mag, and there’s not a single spinning reel with a bail-flip trigger. 
I’ve used these bail-flips for as long as they’ve been out, but only for lure 
chunking & retrieving with one-hand operation. Went on line to some blogs about 
bails without triggers, and it seems the opinions are divided between trigger 
users, bail flippers, and the ‘new’ no-bail at all users. I grew up with the 
manual bail flip (Mitchell 300s), but never had a bail-less model, so went to 
You-tube for a demo.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQkHW00VJTQ  Looks like 
it works, but I didn’t see any bail-less models in the mag, either.

 

I figure if I can find out enough about the bail-less, maybe get one and see if 
I like it.  Then, if two guys are fighting over which is best, I can settle the 
matter and win a No-bail Peace Price.

2016-01-17 Thread Allan Fish 
I don't get a Cabelas magazine, so I haven't seen the article you're 
talking about, but if you go to Cabelas on-line site and look for 
spinning reels, there are a bunch of them with bails.  Admittedly the 
bails are hard to see because they are laying on the backside of the 
picture.


In fact, I couldn't find one without a bail, although I did not look 
through all 23 pages of spinning reels.
