FAQs
What type of fishing is this reel best suited for?
The Piscifun Sword Fly Fishing Reel is versatile and suitable for various fly fishing applications, including freshwater and light saltwater use, from trout streams to bass fishing.
How do I convert the reel from left-hand to right-hand retrieve?
The reel comes factory preset for left-hand retrieve. Conversion to right-hand retrieve is possible. Please contact Piscifun customer support for detailed instructions or assistance with this process.
What is the drag system made of?
The drag system is a multi-disc setup constructed from premium carbon and stainless steel components, providing smooth and reliable performance.
Is the reel resistant to corrosion?
Yes, the reel features a hard-anodized surface treatment, which significantly enhances its resistance to abrasion and corrosion, making it suitable for use in various environmental conditions.
What does the 'mid-arbor' design mean for performance?
A mid-arbor design means the spool has a larger diameter than a standard arbor. This reduces line memory (coils in the line) and allows for faster line pickup, which can be advantageous when fighting fish.
What are the available sizes or weights for this reel?
The Piscifun Sword Fly Fishing Reels are available in different weight classes, including 3/4wt (Gunmetal), 5/6wt (Black), and 7/8wt models, to match various fly rod weights.
Troubleshooting
Reel does not retrieve line smoothly.
Check for any debris lodged in the spool or drag mechanism. Ensure the drag is not overly tightened. Rinse the reel with fresh water and dry thoroughly. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
Drag is inconsistent or weak.
Inspect the carbon and stainless steel drag washers for wear or damage. Ensure they are clean and properly seated. If washers are worn, they may need replacement. Contact Piscifun for replacement parts or further assistance.
