A free-spool reel (Freilaufrolle) allows fish to take line freely without mechanical resistance once the free-spool mechanism is engaged. This is especially useful for carp and deadbait fishing, where you set up your rod and wait for a run. When a fish takes the bait and runs, the reel's free-spool function lets it strip line, which is detected by a bite indicator. You then engage the spool with the handle or by reeling, which disengages the free-spool and allows you to fight the fish normally.
Yes, the DAM 3000 FS is versatile enough for various coarse and predatory fish species. While it excels at carp and pike fishing with deadbait tactics, it's also suitable for feeder fishing, where you might need smooth, reliable line release and retrieve. The compact 3000 size and moderate 8kg drag make it less ideal for large saltwater species, but perfect for European freshwater applications.
The 5.2:1 gear ratio means the spool rotates 5.2 times for each full turn of the handle. This translates to a 78cm retrieve per turn, which is a balanced ratio: fast enough for efficient line recovery during the fight, yet slow enough to maintain steady cranking power when battling strong fish. For a 3000-size reel, this ratio is ideal for general-purpose carp and deadbait fishing.
The DAM 3000 FS has a line capacity of 280m when spooled with 0.25mm monofilament line. This is generous for freshwater fishing, providing ample distance range for both stillwater and river tactics. If you use thinner line (e.g., 0.20mm), you'll fit slightly more; thicker line will reduce capacity. Most European carp anglers find 280m sufficient for typical fishing distances.
The DAM 3000 FS has a maximum drag of 8kg. This is well-suited for European carp and pike in the 5–15kg range when using appropriately strong rod and line combinations. For larger specimens or fast-running fish in strong current, consider a larger reel size. The 8kg drag is moderate but sufficient for the deadbait and feeder applications this reel is designed for.

The DAM Quick 1 Freilaufrolle is a free-spool baitrunner reel designed for coarse and predatory fish angling. Featuring a robust free-spool mechanism, it allows target fish to run line freely after the bite, making it ideal for carp fishing, feeder angling, and deadbait tactics where delayed strike engagement is preferred.
The reel's defining feature is its reliable free-spool system. Once engaged, fish can take line without resistance, signaled by a bite indicator or rod movement. This is particularly valuable when fishing at distance or in situations where you cannot hold the rod.
With a weight of just 310g and a 3000 size frame, this reel is compact enough for portable setups while remaining robust enough for hard-fighting carp and pike. The graphite body and rotor keep weight minimal without compromising durability.
A 5.2:1 gear ratio paired with a smooth 78cm retrieve per turn provides balanced cranking power and speed. The four ball bearings (3+1 configuration) deliver reliable performance during extended sessions.
The reel uses a graphite body and rotor with a steel main shaft for strength where it matters. The anodized spool resists corrosion, and the fixed-gear construction minimizes wobble and play during hard cranking.
