Do you know what Zebco stands for? Would you believe the Zero Hour Bomb Company? Well that's what is means. It is a company that started making fishing reels in 1945, when a watchmaker from Texas presented them with a contraption he had designed to help fishermen solve the problem of backlash when they were fishing. The company ran with the concept and today Zebco reels are a force to be reckoned with in the field of fishing tackle manufacturing. Zebco reels are still making history with the manufacture of the first all metal reel to hit the market in 30 years. Zebco reels feature stainless steel bearings, an integrated front cover lock and continuous anti-reverse. They also have right or left retrieve and a triple drag system. All models feature positive pickup and a dual paddle crank handle. If you have never owned a fishing reel, Zebco is a really good place to start. They have introduced people to the sport of fishing all over the world and kept them hooked. The Zebco reels are great for family fun. The standard reels are reliable and simple to use, with easy push button casting and made for durability with saltwater resistant components and construction. Whether your specialty is spincasting, spinning or baitcasting, Zebco reels have the product you need to complete you fishing tackle gear. The reels are affordable for those who are not sure if they want to change to another style of fishing. Some of their reels even feature a bait casting alarm. Maintenance of Zebco reels is really quite simple. After a day's fishing you should remove the spool and rinse it with fresh water. Dry it with a soft cloth and use a few drops of machine oil to lubricate all the inner workings. If you have been saltwater fishing you should soak the spool in fresh water and lightly spray the reel. Cleaning any reel after saltwater use is extremely important to prevent the build up of crystalline salt residue which will eat away at the reel and ruin it quite quickly. Regular after-use cleaning will extend the life of your Zebco reel (any reel actually). Zebco has reels and other products for all ages and levels of experience. They are active in the promotion of fishing and habitat conservation with children and are a family-oriented company looking to teach the joys of fishing to the younger generations. If you're looking to get your kids into fishing, or you simply need another low-cost guaranteed to work fishing reel to add to you tackle box, then a Zebco reel is right for you.
