Nash Tackle BP-10 Fast Drag Big Pit Carp Fishing Reel

Product Information

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 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.

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. 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. The point I am making is just because we are bringing out really low price reels, that doesn't mean they are going to be rubbish. The whole philosophy of the H-Gun brand came about because there was so much absolute crap at the bottom end, and we were concerned that people taking up carp fishing might have such a bad experience with their gear letting them down that they wouldn't enjoy it, and so give up. The philosophy of H-Gun is to make entry level product which offers reliability and won’t let you down.

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 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. 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. PLEASE NOTE: (Size restrictions do apply, please see Royal Mail webiste for further information.) All Prices are Inc Vat 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.

We recently caught up with Kevin Nash himself, who explained what the reels were all about and why they had been created and added to ever growing Nash range. 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. 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.

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. The H-Gun BP-10 boasts a multi-disc drag that allows you to switch between free spool and fight mode in just one turn. This enables you to capitalise on every power with aggression – resulting in more landed catches. Level Wind ensures that you get perfect line lay every time. Boasting stainless steel ball bearings, a matt finish and a balanced, wooden handle, the Okuma CB-80 even comes with a spare spool! The Nash BP range consists of four models (BP-4, BP-6, BP-10 & BP-12) and each have their own uses. The BP-4 was created to be used in conjunction with the Nash Sawn-Offs, the BP-6 is the ideal partner for the Nash Scope and Dwarf rods and the BP-12 was created for ultra-long distance fishing.I know many anglers who use this as a spod reel, but there is no reason why it should be limited to that.

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. 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. 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. On occasion goods are subject to availability and delay in delivery of goods is sometimes outside our control.

This means that you can fish on the clip to get full casting accuracy without worrying about causing any kind of line damage.
