Spinning Reel
Why Use Spinning Reels
There are a few vital things that you need while fishing, and a reel is one of them. Several fishermen use spinning reels. One of the benefits of using a spinning reel is that you can get a quality reel for a very affordable price. They are also durable and fairly easy to use. They operate really well, and have become a popular choice among many fishermen today. You can place the handle on either side of the fishing pole, and this makes it very convenient to use. While some reels are not viewable all the time, spinning reels can be seen the entire time while you are fishing. This is convenient for times when your fishing line gets tangled, or when you need to put on a new line.
Another benefit of using spinning reels is that the spool is completely stationary. This makes it so when you cast your line it will not get tangled near as easy as other spools that move during the casting. With a spinning reel's spool, the line can continue to let out even after it has dropped into the water. You can also move the handle backwards very easily. You simply flip the switch on the spool into the position that you wish. If you need your fishing line to come out faster then you originally projected, then you can quickly flip the switch and the line will come out faster.
You can also attach leader and swivels to spinning reels. This allows you to switch lures more efficiently. You can also use it to increase your accuracy as you cast the line. This is known among fishermen as flipping or pitching. It is a huge benefit if you are trying to cast to a specific spot in the lake or river.
While you are shopping for spinning reels, you may also wish to look for other fishing equipment as well. Several stores offer package deals, and some even offer discounted fishing gear. If you are unsure of the type of fishing equipment you need, it never hurts to ask someone. If you have friends or family members that fish, go ahead and try out their fishing poles. You will quickly discover what type of pole and reel you would like to use for yourself. It is always nice to try out different equipment before you choose to purchase something for yourself. Make sure that you do your research and find out the best possible equipment at an affordable price.

What would be a good spinning reel for a beginner?
I've never even took one cast with a spinning reel. I have used all spincast reels and i thought i need to step it up. I've been reading on how to cast spinning reels and think i'm ready. What would be a good cheap spinning reel for carp and channel catfish? and what would be a good cheap spinning reel for bass and panfishing?
thanks to all answers!!!
Shimano IX2000 or IX1000
This is one of the best spinning reel for under $35 I've ever seen. It only cost around $10.00 at many places too. The reel is very smooth. It is almost impossible to find a drag as smooth as this one unless you're willing to spend a lot more money. The reel is very durable provided that you don't push the limit; don't spool the reel with lines heavier than recommended. I've caught caught a lot of fish with my IX2000. I've caught fish from tiny bluegill to 25lb+ carp and halibut and the reel never failed me once in the past 5 years. The reel is one of the best buys out there. You can find IX2000 and IX4000 at Wal-Mart for $9.95.
The reel isn't perfect though. It doesn't have infinite anti-reverse. The spring for the anti-reverse is very thin (ie: not very strong). This will make the reel quieter. But once internal parts got dirty, the anti-reverse could fail. So far, IX1000 and IX2000 didn't give me any anti-reverse related problems but IX4000 did; the anti-reverse spring weakened. The internal part used for anti-reverse was made out of plastic. I haven't broke one yet but it simply doesn't look very strong; this is reason why I don't recommend using lines heavier than specified. This reel is easy to take apart for general maintenance. But putting it back together might not be as easy. Once you got to the anti-reverse part, many people will experience some trouble putting it back together properly again.
