  1. It allows the reel to be reeled backwards if you want to fight the fish by hand, or locked so you can use the built in drag…

  2. Also useful for if you’re trolling, here meaning using a boat with a lure or bait being pulled behind not typing on reddit, using a depth finder so you can let out line. I also find it useful when fishing rivers because it can help me control how a bobber or top water bait enters a given rapid or hole.
