Hello everyone,
I'd really appreciate it if somebody could offer some advice on 3.5" centrepins. All I've ever fished with has been 4.5" reels, so not sure when you would select a 3.5" and how this would affect your fishing style?
I'm assuming the operation is largely the same, however with the 3.5" I'm assuming you get less casting distance and retrieval rate is reduced. The reason I ask is because I've heard Speedia's and Trupin Trotters are 3.5" and are very popular, whereas alot of people always suggest to go for 4.5" where possible.
Do you think 3.5" is a bit too small for general 'do everyhing' fishing, and are more suitable on small rivers? Just curious as I've never used a centrepin of that size.
Thanks for any information
Regards
Aaron
