By Tommy PriceCSI100 Final Project

Conventional

Fly Spinning

•To design a website that takes my passion for fishing reels and puts it to a practical use.•Help people select the reel best suited for their fishing needs and situations, price range, and speed needed.•And of course to demonstrate what I have learned from CSI100!

•Created an excel spreadsheet comparing reels in terms of weight, number of speeds, gear ratio(s), line capacity, price, and drag power.•Created a website using FrontPage to link to the excel reel sheet, different kinds of reels, manufacturers, my proposal, a counter applet for recording the free spool time, and this PowerPoint.•Used former employer AllTackle.com for pictures and most reel specification numbers•Linked an applet which measured free spool time

•Selecting which manufacturers on which to focus•Choosing reels to include•Finding a fishing reel related applet•Having a cracked laptop screen•Finding drag poundage for certain reels•Entering specifications into excel (tedious)

•Proposal: Explaining plan and reason for choosing project•PowerPoint: What you are seeing here•Types of Reels: Categories of Conventional, Spinning, or Fly•Reel Specifications: Excel sheet showing specifications of reels•Free Spool Counter: Applet for recording how long a reel’s spool will spin (determines smoothness and proper lubrication)•Links to Manufacturers: Check out their sites

Hopefully you know a little more about fishing reels!
