WHILE THE SOCIETY DOES NOT ENDORSE A
PARTICULAR MANUFACTURER OR MAKE OF REEL. THIS SECTION IS DESIGNED TO GIVE
ANGLERS ADVICE AS TO THE TYPES OF REELS REQUIRED FOR THE DIFFERET ASPECTS OF
CATFISHING. |
|
CATFISHING IN THE U.K. FOR MOST VENUES IN THE UNITED
KINGDOM, A STANDARD 36” TO 50” NET WOULD BE IDEAL, WITH SOME VENUES A 6O” NET
MAY EVEN BE MORE SUITABLE. THE CATFISH SOICETY CURRENTLY STOCK TWO LANDING
NETS A 60” AND A EUROPEAN VERSION WHICH HAS 72” ARMS. |
|
CONTINENTAL
CATFISHING FOR MOST LAKES IN EUROPE A 60” OR 72”
NET WOULD BE IDEAL. ON THE CONTINENTAL RIVERS THE CATFISH ARE MORE OFTEN
LIFTED INTO BOATS BY A WALLER GRIP ON THE FISHES BOTTOM JAW RATHER THAN BY
LANDING NETS. |
