Shimano Baitrunner Spinning Reels Reviews
Spinning Reels > Shimano > Baitrunner - manufacturer's page | Details: Our BaitRunner Lever -- providing a secondary drag system -- allows an angler to feed out line in tension-controlled freespool with the bail closed. This enables the angler to feed line out, lets the fish take the bait and run -- while still maintaining line control by having the bail closed. To engage the primary drag and set the hook, simply turn the reel handle, or flip to the 'BaitRunner Off' position, and the fight is on. For dropping bait back to fish from your boat, working jetties for stripers, and even certain freshwater situations, our BaitRunner feature gives you an ultimate fish-catching advantage |
