Title: Baitfeeder/Baitrunner/Free Spooling Spinning Reels
Post by: Damien on October 15, 2011, 12:44:00 AM
Does anyone use one for float/drift fishing?  I think Shimano, Penn and maybe others make these reels.

I have heard there have been advances in the technology which allows the spools to turn with the slightest amount of pressure, ie from a float drifting in the current.  I much prefer fishing with a spinning real as opposed to a baitcaster but I can't question that baitcasters or CPs are better at it.
