Magnetic reels.

Hi Barbelman,
I use the following reel, it will not completely prevent crows nests but, the magnets do make it much more controllable and easier for beginners, it keeps the spool spinning at more constant rate during the cast, after launching the bait try and keep your eye on your rig and all you need to do is use your thumb to stop it before it hits the water, play around with the magnetic settings start casting from max setting and go down as you become more confident, it is not a distance casting machine but, is dead easy to use and you can get most distance where the fish are, also adding some quality oil to the bearing will increase the distance out of the box.
Regards
Jonathan

The fact that the magnets strength can be adjusted gives me hope that it will work for me.
I think I will get it.

2 de opsie is koop n penn squall 15, baie goeie kwalieteit reel en hy het adjustable mags aan kant en h100 drags(selle soos carbontex. ek garantee jou as jy hom vol mag gestell het sal jy glad nie n kraai nes kry nie. en jy kan as jy beter word dit afstel. 3rde opsie is koop n lekker katrol mag hom deur iemand, enigma, cuban sigar, of iemand naby jou met mag it internal mag. hulle stell hom dat jy ook nooit n kraai ness kry nie. teen sy jou lyn vas sit jy hard trek jou lyn snap en jy is in free spool soos ek was lol
