I live in North Wales in the UK. I enjoy travel and spend a lot of time on the internet looking for holiday bargains. I enjoy all sports especially football. I try to keep fit with occasional visits to the gym and swimming pool.

Many people who fish dislike using the multiplier reel and stick to the fixed spool type ( type with bail arm that you move over the top of the spool). Although the fixed spool type is very easy to use and most probably one of the first reels we all use, the multiplier, once mastered, is a much better reel. The ideal starter is the Abu Garcia 6500. Not only a starter reel but one you will keep for ever. These reels are strong and nice in size without being too big. These reels come in different models but are all very similar. They come with level wind, which loads the line on to the reel in an even way to save you doing it manually. and so the line leaves the reel in an even way to increase distance. These reels can be used on your beachcaster from the beach or for use on a boat, but not really for wreck fishing. Spares for these reels are also available from most tackle shops should you ever need anything.
