India\“s local fishing industry has developed several specialized big game fishing reels that cater to the unique marine conditions found in Indian coastal waters. These reels are specifically designed to handle the powerful fish species found in the Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal.
Local manufacturers like Apex Fishing Gear and Marine Sports India produce heavy-duty reels with enhanced drag systems capable of handling giant trevally, sailfish, and large groupers. These reels feature corrosion-resistant materials suitable for India\“s tropical climate and saltwater environment.
Traditional Indian fishing communities have also contributed to reel design, incorporating knowledge passed down through generations about local fish behavior and fishing techniques. Many reels include custom modifications for specific regional fishing methods practiced along the coasts of Kerala, Goa, and the Andaman Islands. |
