The fast drag adjustment requires less than a single turn to connect you directly to the fish, and there is an isotope slot incorporated into the handle, which can be folded flat with one touch. Boasting 7 stainless steel ball bearings, an aluminium handle and a strong casing, Avid has created a reel that is built to last. At 740g, it is one of the heavier reels on this list. PLEASE NOTE: (Size restrictions do apply, please see Royal Mail webiste for further information.) All Prices are Inc Vat recommend that you use recorded or special delivery as we can not be liable for any loss or damage in transit. The main reason for selecting a big pit style reel is the enhanced casting performance offered by the larger spools and the BP10 doesn't disappoint in that regard.

You may have heard people say “the more ball bearings a reel has, the better it is”. While that can be true in some cases, in a lot of cases it is absolute nonsense. The quality of the ball bearings in a reel are usually more important than the quantity. Considering that Daiwa is responsible for some of the most expensive reels on the planet, it is nice to see that they also provide a good quality reel at the other end of the price spectrum.

All good reels deserve to have good spare spools and this is true of the Nash H-Gun range. All the Nash H-Gun reels are top quality bits of kit that have been purposed designed for use with the H-Gun rod range. These spare spools have been purpose built to fit the different models in the range. Big pit reels can hold a lot of line, which are perfect if you are doing really long distance casting or boating your rigs out to their chosen spots. However, if you are only casting around 100yds, you can probably go for a smaller version (or maybe you don’t even need a big pit reel at all?)

The H-Gun BP-10 has a long cast nose which is constructed from aluminium. This allows you to load it up with a fantastic amount of line and enables you to reach the farthest features you need on some of the nation’s largest lakes. This spool has been created with CAD technology to ensure its full precision. Fitted with an oversized line roller to eliminate line twist – even when fishing with a braid – this reel makes casting and retrieving a dream to use. PLEASE NOTE: All services are normally delivered within 48hours but this is not guaranteed as we cannot be held responsible for problems beyond our control. Before we take a look at the recommendations, there are a few factors that you should always consider before parting with your hard-earned cash: The spool on the BP-10 Fast Drag Big Pit offers long casting potential. Constructed from aluminium, the spool is fitted with a line guard and is fitted with dual Spot On line clips. Spot On is Nash’s patented line clip design that allows you to fish accuracy and consistently, without worrying about causing damage to your line. Level Wind line lay ensures that you achieve perfect line lay on the retrieve – helping you get those extra few meters with each cast. The Nash Bp10 has been equipped with multi-disc fast drag technology, which allows you to switch between free-spool drag and fighting drag setting in less than one turn of the adjustment handle.Will Nash bring out top end reels? Only when we believe we have the technical ability and innovation to take the best boys on. We wouldn't, for example, just bring out a reel which is a basically a copy of Daiwa or Shimano, with no unique innovative features. Just like we are proving with bite alarms, if we go into a product area it will only be with the knowledge that we have something better to offer the carp angler.’ The Spot-On line clips are fitted to the BP10 and mean you can cast to your clip at long-distance without worrying about damaging your line. Boasting stainless steel ball bearings, a matt finish and a balanced, wooden handle, the Okuma CB-80 even comes with a spare spool! Smooth operation comes from 6 + 1 roller bearing construction, with Level Wind line lay for longer casting and variable tension free spool. The line friendly Spot On line clip ensures precision rig placement, and CNC machined handles and a multi disc drag take the pressures of playing powerful fish in their stride. Avid are infants in comparison to some of the manufacturers on this list, but their products are excellent in terms of both quality and value.

There's three reels in the range with two free spool reels (FR5 and FR8) and one big pit (BP10). First of all we’ll start with the freespool models, the Nash H-Gun FR-5 and the Nash H-Gun FR-8, now both these models are the same, the only difference being the spool capacity and size. Like the majority of big pit reels, the ACR 12000 has a front drag system that requires less than one turn to engage the reel from free spool mode. The Nash H-Gun FR-8 Spare Spool once again fits the reel of the same name. The FR-8 is a free spooling reel that is ideal for all mid-venue carp fishing. This spare spool is ideal for the angler who likes ultimate versatility on the bank as it allows you to bring a line with a completely different breaking strain with you. It also allows you to load up with a completely different line type – ideal if you’re an angler who fishes lots of different venues in different climatic conditions as it means you are always prepared for any eventuality. I know many anglers who use this as a spod reel, but there is no reason why it should be limited to that. We will make every reasonable effort to deliver your products safely and in accordance with any specific delivery instructions that you give us however we will not be liable for any delay, damage or loss as a result of complying with such specific instructions.The ACR 12000 big pit reel can hold 450yds of 0.35mm line (which should be more than enough for most carp anglers) and has a long, tapered spool that can reduce friction when casting to enable you to achieve longer distances. The 4.9:1 gear ratio allows for rapid recovery. Image by: Avid Carp Why make reels so cheap? The Nash sub brand H-Gun recognizes that an awful lot of people haven't got much spare cash, youngsters have little or are relying on parents, and it could be argued that if you're new to the sport its madness to go spending a lot of money on top end gear if you aren't going to take to it. This is the odd-looking number that is associated with every reel (i.e 4.6:1). In this instance, it tells you that the spool rotates 4.6 times for each turn of the handle. In some cases, the higher the number is, the more line the reel can retrieve. While Daiwa and Shimano may be known as the unofficial market leaders when it comes to manufacturing carp reels, Fox will almost always be mentioned in the same breath by many anglers. A big pit carp reel has become an essential piece of kit for when you are fishing at longer distances, so much so that many anglers have discarded their faithful baitrunner reels in favour of these all-rounders.
