Quick question before i purchase. Is this reel reversible? Im left handed so hoping its a same slip drag system and can simply wind line on opposite direction. Cheers.
Fellow lefty here wondering the same thing... thanks Riffe for letting us know. Fyi a lot of fly fishing reels are reversible and would be a MUCH appreciated improvement to a great reel.
How do you secure the starting point of the line to the reel, please? I received this reel with my euro setup, but I found that there is no way to accomplish this, and essentially, without this "fixed" point, the lines will not be locked in their position. As a result, the entire reel keeps rotating against the plastic axle, rendering the locking mechanism useless.
Here's a video that should solve the issue you are having. There is a particular way to tie the knot so the start of the line around the spool does not spin around. docsend.dropbox.com/view/quujv3wkkbmxntzu . Shoot us a comment and let us know if you were able to get your reel working. Thanks!
Our reels are manufactured to be installed and used on wooden stock spearguns. Someone very handy might be able to mount it to another type of speargun with some ingenuity, but the overarching answer is no.
Looks great, thanks for the video!
Thanks. Hope it helps.

Good Question - This reel is not reversible. The internal drag rollers are positioned at an angle which functions smoothly one way only.
