In use Banax Electric Reel with dredges

The Banax electric reel, especially when paired with a fishing dredge, is popular for deep-sea and offshore fishing due to its power and efficiency. Electric reels are designed to make fishing in deep waters easier by reducing the strain of manually retrieving heavy lines, especially when pulling up large fish or dredges.

A fishing dredge typically involves a large frame with multiple baited lures or teaser baits. It’s commonly used to attract big game fish, like tuna or marlin, by simulating a school of fish swimming through the water.

When a Banax electric reel is used with a fishing dredge, it works like this:

Deploying the Dredge: The dredge is let out into the water, and the Banax reel helps control the speed and depth at which the dredge moves.

Attracting Fish: As the boat moves, the dredge mimics a school of baitfish, attracting larger fish to the area. The electric reel can maintain the tension needed to keep the dredge at the correct depth.

Retrieval: Once the dredge needs to be retrieved (whether to check for strikes, relocate, or change tactics), the Banax reel’s electric power ensures a quick and effortless pullback, even when deep or heavy gear is involved. This is especially helpful in reducing the fatigue associated with manual reeling, particularly after long fishing sessions or heavy catches.

This combination can be a key strategy for big game anglers looking to increase their chances of landing large fish while conserving energy.
