RECOMMENDED LINE SIZE

For fish up to 1kg use 3 to 4kg line,

gamefish 1 1/2 to 2 1/2kg use 5 or 6kg line,

for larger fish use 7.5 to 10kg line. If fishing

near rocks or other hazards use heavier line to

help avoid line breakage.

FILLING THE SPOOL WITH LINE

Always take the line from the front of the

dispenser, never the side.

Wind on firmly and evenly onto the

spool, spreading the line to give a smooth

casting base.

Never stretch a nylon monofilament onto a

spool, when it goes back to its original length

it will exert strong enough crushing action to

damage your spool. Never allow loose coils

to develop on your spool through careless

uneven winding. Adopt the habit of applying

light finger tension while the line is spread

evenly over its bed.

RIGS & SWIVELS

When used properly a brass swivel is a very

inexpensive and efficient way to keep a

fishing line in good condition.

Curls and twists in a line can be caused by

many things, but can be kept to a minimum by

a correct use of a swivel.

SELECTING A ROD

Your rod and reel outfit should be designed so

you can hold it comfortably over long periods.

A matched set, which has a point of balance

where its held in the left hand, will give you the

most comfortable posture.

The use of a short butt brings the reel into a

natural position for rewinding with your elbows

at your side and without strain.

LIGHT CASTING

For most river, lake and estuary fishing the

single handed cast method shown below in fig. 1.

is all that is required. Just turn the reel to 90º to

the casting position, holding the line on the lip of

the reel with your L.H. index finger.

Now with a smooth even

casting action cast your rod and

release line. This method can be

used overhead, underhand,

backhand or forehand to

avoid trees or obstacles.

the other way round.

All reels that cast from the side of a stationary

spool give maximum unrestricted casting, free

from snarls or backlash, but it's essential that a

small free running swivel is used as the last item

above the rig.

The swivel must

be above the weight.

Whatever the rig

always use the

smallest practical

swivel above any

attachment to the line.

TYPES OF RIG

ALVEY 'A' SERIES

DIRECT WIND REEL - MODELS A1 & A5

The ultimate in simplicity of construction, with

the absolute minimum of wearing parts. 'A' Series

reels have no star drag action. As the fish makes

its run, even-line tension is maintained by the

angler taking his or her fingers from the winding

handle and putting them under the reel against

the line still left in the spool well.

ALVEY 'C' SERIES

NON-REVERSING DRAG MODELS - C1 & C5

Incorporating a multi-plate friction clutch on

larger models these reels give a wide range of

tension settings which don't vary once set while

battling with the fish, but the drag control star nut

is positioned in such a way that adjustments can

be made while the fish is played. With the pawl

knob engaged, the handle locks in a stationary

position while the spool continues to give line to

the running fish.

SETTING THE DRAG

The drag system allows line to be pulled from

the reel under tension without breaking when a

fish strikes, or makes a quick run when hooked.

Set the drag by turning the anti-reverse 'on' then

pull the line against a small handscale. Adjust

the drag tension from one third to no more than

half the line's ideal strength. It's better to start

fishing with the drag set too loose than too tight,

and tightening it when the fish is on. If tootight,

the line may break. Always loosen the drag

completely after fishing.

ALVEY 'E' SERIES

POSITIVE WIND STAR DRAG - MODEL E5

These reels combine the protection of the Alvey

'C' series with positive action of the 'A'type, and

are available in Models 650, 651 and 700.

PLAYING THE FISH

Once the fish has been hooked always keep a

bend in the rod by holding it at an angle to the

fish. With the power of an Alvey reel, you only

need to hold the rod up and wind in. If the fish

is too strong, let go some line until it tires then

rewind. With large fish, pumping with the rod

will help in landing it.

MAINTENANCE

Use Alvey reel Lube for working spindles etc.

Then light machine oil on handles and index

mechanism. After each day's fishing wash off

salt and sand and lubricate as above before

storage. Unless major overhaul is required,

there's no need to strip the reel complete
