so it hangs down like a spinning reel so the handle would be on the left side for a right hand reel. Is this correct?.
Answer: No the reel is on the right that's y it's right hand reel
Answer: No right on the right side and left on left side
Q:
The answers below are confusing. So I want the reel to hang down but have the crank on the left side. Which one?
Answer: If you want the crank on the left side buy the left hand reel. It hangs down with handle (crank) on left side.
Q:
Does it have a loud click when reeling?
Answer: No it doesn’t have a loud click when reeling .
Answer: No, not when reeling.
Answer: No, the clicking happens when you are pulling line off. Even then, the click is not loud
Answer: Very quiet.
Q:
Is there a free spool adjustment for the speed of free fall? The knob I think is supposed to do it you can’t turn by hand and have to use a pliers and
Answer: All of these inline reels are the same. By the same I mean they're peices of junk. I've purchased two that were similar to this but the guts are all the same. Save your money and buy a quality spinning reel!
Q:
Is your left handed right hand reel, orientated for a left hand person. or is it left hand reel, as for a righty?
Answer: Left hand as for a righty
Answer: The reel orientation is opposite what your dominant hand is
Answer: U can order either
Answer: Opposite what you normally use and this feel apart first time I used it
Q:
Could this reel be used for fly fishing line ?
Answer: Russ, I am certainly not a "pro anything". But if you want my advice, I would say "no". Most floating fly line is large in diameter and I don't think you can spool enough on the reel for a long cast. If you can't get the release drag to work, (like mine) any fly line you put on would come off way too fast and it would be a mess in no time.
Answer: Don’t think so. Works great for ice fishing with 4lb fishing line
Answer: I think it could, if you had to. It has become one of my favorite ice reels.
Answer: No,ice fishing only
Q:
Is the reel ambidextrous? I can’t seem to find an option for right hand.
Answer: No they are not, they currently only have the left hand reels.
Q:
Based on the picture it does not look like a cnc machined aluminum body. please somebody can confirm that it is indeed a cnc machined aluminum body.
Answer: Regardless of weather or not its cnc machines, these inline reels are basically all the same. You'd be better off buying a quality spinning reel.
Q:
Anti reverse?
Answer: No. But if you have the tension set appropriately you shouldn’t have an issue. I never have. On my 2nd season with mine and I love how smooth the action is
Answer: Yes, and good drag.
Q:
Where is this made
Answer: It doesn’t say anywhere on the box where it’s made or the parts list inside if it was made in the USA it would say made in the USA so I’m assuming it’s made overseas
Q:
how does it cast .. no bail and or buttons on it?
Answer: Ice fishing, it's meant to manually let line out down a hole drilled in the ice, not to cast.
Answer: push the side black button on the side of the reel
Answer: This is a ice fishing reel ,not a casting reel. It does not cast.
Answer: There is a bail.
Q:
does it cast like a spin reel .. or will it get tangled like bait caster
Answer: it does not cast. you have to let the line out by freespooling. when freespooling you must keep tension on the reel with your finger or it will get tangled like a baitcaster.
Answer: No it will not cast like a spinning reel... no reason to cast when ice fishing
Answer: If you don't put enough tension via the magnet on the reel it can get tangled. But as an inline ice fishing reel I don't know anyone that would actually cast this reel.
Answer: It is a spinning reel.
Q:
What pound test line can this reel handle?
Answer: I put 3lb. On. Don't buy this reel it's a piece of junk. The one I bought is going in the garbage !
I bought two of these Fiblink reels for ice fishing, along with two Akataka poles. The mounting foot of the reel is about one half inch too long to fit onto the reel mount on the rod. The foot length is not listed in the description, though it is listed in the pole specs. Emails to Fiblink were answered quickly, but did not help me at all. The reels appear to be well made, but I haven't tried them. Very disappointed. New: Edit to my review. I put 4 lb. test mono on the reel and went fishing. The drag at the lowest setting was not smooth at all. I really have decided these reels are not worth the money at all. They look good, but they are not appropriate for ice fishing for 1-2 lb. fish. The foot length is 2 11/16 inches....far too long for most ice fishing poles. The cork handles are likely to disintegrate faster than composite handles, too.
fish monster : good value
this reel is awesome like so much bought another
JJ : No spool tensioner
There is no spool tension so its just free spool which is pointless.
Red beard : Very sweet deal!!
Best for the price
Amazon Customer : Great reel
I love this reel. I found it fits better on a rod without a built in real seat. A rod you can adjust the reel up and down on the rod handle. That way you can customize it to your grip style. The line release button is a great feature. I plan to order another on
Amazon Customer : Product has defect, excellent customer service
I purchased this reel on the recommendation of a friend who was currently using one. The reel itself is nice and appears to be well constructed however, it has a flaw. The tension adjustment that controls the rate of freefall does not work. Basically it is a threaded shaft that when screwed in, is supposed to provide friction against the back of the spool, thus proving a friction adjustment. Either the shaft is too short or there is a part missing that should go on the end of the shaft. I contacted customer service and after providing proof of purchase, they sent me with a new reel free of charge. The new reel exhibits the same problem. The reel is functional if the spool is "fingered" to provide friction control or as in my case, I cut a piece of small diameter rigid plastic tubing and put it on the end of the shaft to effectively extend it.
Cass : Don’t buy
Used it once and it started falling apart
john holley : Great for the price
Not as smooth cranking as it should be

Aaron R. : Great looking reel
The materials look great, but after exposing it to the ice and snow elements it started squeaking after the first time using it. The brake isn’t working correctly. I’m gonna try to disassemble and re-grease and see if that takes care of it. I’ll give an update if it takes care of it.
Bryan : Drag system is absolutely terrible..
Seems well built. There are things I like about it at the end of the day u can get by.. it’s a 35 dollar reel ... but drag is almost unusable...
Michael Oleson : Don't buy it
The drag is real jerkey. I don't think you could catch a bigger fish with it
Yair G. : Five Stars
Thank you very much, excellent
fish monster : good value
this reel is awesome like so much bought another
scott fossell : nice reels ! work very good!
i have four of them now
Mason S. : Looks pretty but no function
It was a pretty reel but the drag is very inconsistent. It doesn’t back off very much. There is either a lot or none. Even set at the lowest setting it will suddenly free spool. I will be returning this soon.

geo : Good
Not bad for the price
C. Jacobsen : Waiting for ice.
No ice here yet, but I left it in the freezer for a week to test. Although it was a bit harder to reel, it was still smooth. I might have to remove some grease from the gears to make it reel more freely in extreme cold temperatures.
J Elliston : A+
Great Reel!
Yair G. : Five Stars
Thank you very much, excellent
Eric Schott : Will not fit in some rods
Great reel but will not fit on some ice rods had to grind down both ends yo fit in rod
John A Grandson : Love this Reel
Purchased four reels, 2 LH, and 2 RH. Love the product. The first two fish caught on this product were an 18# and 10# Northern Pike.
richard nicolaison : Five Stars
received reel in excellent shape ,very happy, cant wait to use it. would recommend to all my friends
Coipel : Catches Fish
The reel is super light and big enough to use with gloves if needed. The drag system worked real well, only fished Crappie and Bluegills on 2# test. Did manage 2 northern pike jigging for gills and the drag system performed well. I would recommend this reel.
