I never thought I'd think of a fishing reel as beautiful. But this is. It is beautiful. Its action feels smooth, and the materials are impressive (ball bearings, graphite, stainless steel and aluminum).I'm a novice fisherman. Its not so much that I actually want to kill fish, as that I decided months ago that I want to be able to do so, given that civilization and the planet are beginning fall apart (tribal hatred, immense random and tribal violence, ecological collapse, class warfare, mass migration and such). I anticipate practicing "catch and release."As another reviewer said, the bail does take some cranking oomph to get it to close. In it's defense, my research suggests that spinning reel bails should be manually closed after each cast, and that although bails will close automatically when reeling begins this can be rough, and can result on the first spin in the line missing the reel and tangling.I gather that extra line spools are used mainly to switch between types or strengths of line. Additionally, I see that the spare black line spool that comes with this reel (probably made of plastic) has a slightly different gear ratio (5.1:1 vs 5.2:1), as well as slightly different ratings of lbs/yards of various weights of line.This reel (and the spools that come with it) are labeled 3000. A commenter elsewhere indicates that small reels in the 1000 - 3500 range work well with light lines in the 4 - 8 lb range, and that larger fish such as bass or salmon require a bigger reel, in the 3000 - 6000 range. Another source indicates that spinning reels operate best with fairy limp and flexible fishing lines (apparently meaning braided line, as opposed to monofilament).As I gain experience I might develop some other preference, like gear designed for bigger fish, but this reel is incontestably a beauty.

I purchased the X5 Adventure and the RR3000 reel.Coming from 2 piece rods I was a little bit sceptical but I have to say this thing is amazing! I cannot recommend it enough.Not only does it feel solid, it honestly compares to traditional 2 piece rods so little to no compromise.I have now used this is rivers and the sea and it performs great.This feels more unbreakable than my 2 piece rods, but this one packs down into a very small tube so perfect for travel.After the order I was interested in a few additional items and Andy (Riggy) has also provided me with great support and I cant thank him enough. In this day and age its amazing to find a company with values like this.If anyone reading this is questioning whether to purchase, take it from me you will not be disappointed.One happy customer,Jamie

Mir liegt die Spinnrolle von »Riggend & Ready« in der 6000er-Ausführung vor. In dieser fasst sie laut Herstellerangaben 220 Meter 0,4 mm-Schnur / 175 Meter 0,45 mm-Schnur / 140 Meter 0,50 mm-Schnur. Die Übersetzung wird mit 4,7:1 angegeben.Optisch gefällt mir die Rolle in ihrem schwarzen Kupferlook recht gut. Auch macht die Verarbeitung einen guten Eindruck; das Schnurlaufröllchen bei meinem Exemplar ist ohne Blessuren; der Bügel lässt sich gut schließen und öffnen. Beim Auswerfen gibt sie reibungslos und »smooth« Schnur frei. Die Frontbremse lässt sich angenehm fein einstellen und auch die Kurbel liegt angenehm in der Hand. Eine Rücklaufsperre ist natürlich vorhanden; einen Freilauf gibt es – was bei Spinnrollen ja normal ist – nicht. Die Ersatzspule ist aus Plastik – und damit ggf. besser geeignet, um im Salzwasser zu fischen.Soweit alles gut. Das hier ist bei Weitem nicht meine erste Angelrolle – aber die erste, bei der ich es nicht intuitiv hinbekommen habe, die Kurbel für Linkshänder auf die rechte Seite zu wechseln. Dank des Videos auf der Herstellerseite bin ich nun schlauer: Man muss das Rollengehäuse festhalten, während man die Kurbel falsch herum dreht. An alle Linkshänder da draußen: Es geht, auch ihr dürft die Rolle kaufen, wenn sie euch gefällt.

Good spinning reel. Spools on lots of line and has extra spool. Metal spools not plastic. Smooth reel, like high end reels. This was a 3000 series. Easily fits 6 ft rods. Casting is great. Able to throw the line out 50 yards or more, depending on your set up. Good value you for the money. Great casting and good retrieval rate.

I've had this reel for quite a while, and I think you'd be hard-pressed to find a better one for this price. I've used it both in salt and fresh water and had sea bass to 56cm, a few nice pikes to about 65cm, perch to 40cm, some large tench, and many smaller fish too. The drag works great and is very smooth, also sounds lovely. Extremely happy with this purchase and the owner of the brand is great if you ever need any help, I can't recommend them enough!
