Fishing reel with a 180 degree rotating spool

A method of casting a line comprising:

• casting the line from a spool in a first position;
• rotating said spool to a second position, said second position being rotated 90 degrees or 180 degrees from said first position;
• and
• casting the line with said spool in said second position,
• wherein said spool is part of a spool assembly supported in a spool support system and a spring loaded locking device is engaged with said spool assembly for locking and unlocking the spool assembly from the spool support system, said spool assembly can be locked and unlocked from said spool support system using said spring loaded locking device,
• said spool support system comprises a brace, said brace comprising a pair of brace arm members, said brace arm members being coupled or integral to one another, said spring loaded locking device comprising spring loaded spool support bands, spool sleds and a sled locking device, each of said brace arm members including a pivot point aperture for receiving respective pivot prongs of said spring loaded spool support bands that can be rotated 90 degrees by disengaging said spool sleds from said spring loaded spool support bands and locking said spool sleds with said sled locking device and said spool assembly can be rotated 90 degrees in either direction thereby allowing the spool assembly to be cast in a 0 degree in-line position, a 90 degree right cast position or a 90 degree left cast position.

A method of casting a line comprising:

• casting the line from a spool in a first position that generates positive twist by the cast or retrieve;
• rotating said spool to a second position, said second position being rotated 180 degrees from said first position;
• and
• casting the line with said spool in said second position that generates negative twist in order to maintain a neutral zero twist of the line,
• wherein said spool is part of a spool assembly supported in a spool support system and a spring loaded locking device is engaged with said spool assembly for locking and unlocking the spool assembly from the spool support system,
• said spool support system comprises a brace, said brace comprising a pair of brace arm members, said brace arm members being coupled or integral to one another, said spring loaded locking device comprising spring loaded spool support bands, spool sleds and a sled locking device, each of said brace arm members including a pivot point aperture for receiving respective pivot prongs of said spring loaded spool support bands that can be rotated 90 degrees by disengaging said spool sleds from said spring loaded spool support bands and locking said spool sleds with said sled locking device wherein said spool assembly can be locked and unlocked from said spool support system using said spring loaded locking device and said spool assembly can be rotated 90 degrees in either direction thereby allowing the spool assembly to be cast in a 0 degree in-line position, a 90 degree right cast position or a 90 degree left cast position.
