Double Handle Spinning Reel?

Featured Replies

I'm looking for a good double handle spinning reel. I would put it on a ML rod with 6-10 flourocarbon for finesse fishing. There's a few JDM reels, but they all seem to have really shallow spools so it would not work out for my finesse setup. Anybody have any suggestions for a high quality reel? JDM or USDM doesn't matter. Or is there a good way to maybe add a custom handle?

How come a shallow spool would not work out for your "finesse" setup ? :huh:

I have a JDM Daiwa Revros 2004 ( which is a shallow spool ) spooled with 6 lb Trilene XT and does wonders casting those size 1 in-line spinners, 1.5 inch Shad Assassins, 1" tail less grubs n´ such, actually it performs much much better than a smaller ( 1000 size ) reel because it has those big ( 2000 size ) drag pads and washers.

I'm not sure how much line I could fit on there and if it would be able to catch on the drag properly. I've never really used too shallow of a spool before so I'm slightly hesitant. Maybe I'm wrong, correct me if I am.
