Quick take
A spincast reel with lever-action winding mounted directly on a bow for bowfishing rough fish.
This is a spincast reel built for bowfishing and slingshot fishing, with a stainless steel counterbalanced rocker arm and a handle that swaps between left and right hand. You press the button on the end of the wheel before each shot, and the guide posts retract so the line leaves the cover without catching. The BL40 version comes with 70 yards of nylon line, uses die-cast alloy internal gears, and weighs about 0.75 kg.
