Spinning reels which are sometimes open or closed are very well-liked for anglers who like to use artificial lures such as top water lures, diving lures and plastics such as worms, grubs and leeches. Spinning closed faced spinning outfits are great gifts too because of the simple thumb release in casting and ease of retrieve.

Open faced reels is a little more complicated in casting in that the small piece metal known as “bail”  with the finger at a hand to be lifted, while another finger on the bar at the hand you hold the line. It needs little exercise to master but once perfected the open faced reels casts longer and can also hold more line than the closed faced.

Casting reels are more of a workhorse than the spinners and used to be called "bait casting reels" because they were used many times for casting rigs with bobbers, hooks and bait. Casting reels may backlash thus many beginners are having a hard time to master this reel. What happens is when the line spool keeps on spinning after the cast movement has stopped. The line ties itself into creative knots and must be released by picking at the knots, until the coil is free. These reels are with artificial seals and many professional bass fishermen use this over spinning reels because of their high performance and firm connections.

Another type of reel is the fly reel which is used mostly on a fly rod by fly fishers. Before, fly reels are basically a black metal with a cylinder or spool and had a clicker to allow a bit of tension on the line to prevent backlash. Nowadays, there are fly reels with bearing and a gear and can be made of from graphite to titanium. Fly fishing reels must match to the fly rod and line and so care should be used in buying this for someone else.
