Bass Pro Shops Johnny Morris Signature Series Spinning Reel
Once again, Bass Pro Shops® has made a great thing even better! Johnny Morris® Signature Series Spinning Reels represent excellent quality AND exceptional value. For the record, our no-compromise approach not only produces a high-performance reel, but with regular maintenance, one that will be around for years to come.
Our latest iteration features a skeletonized rotor and frame for smooth, resistance-free performance. Bass Pro Shops' Mag Spool Technology™ utilizes a 30% wider spool than most standard spinning reels, delivering longer casts, better line lay, smoother drag, and far less line twist. And talk about smooth, an 11-bearing system includes our Powerlock™ instant anti-reverse. An ultra-slim, sealed aluminum body design turns in tournament-proven performance every time. Johnny Morris Signature Series Spinning Reels use shielded stainless steel ball bearings and a sealed carbon fiber drag. Other features include an aluminum spool, brass pinion gear, stainless steel main shaft, zinc alloy drive gear, and a machined-aluminum handle with a comfortable, ribbed TPE handle knob. What's more, each of these spinning reels comes with a FREE braid-ready spare aluminum spool, except the JMS50 model, which comes with a regular spool.
Line recovery in inches per handle turn.

Best reel I've ever ownefI have been using these reels for years and have never had an issue with them. Great casting and strong enough to land several Bass over 8 pounds. Very smooth and light. Awesome reel.

Worst reel in 40 years of fishingReceived the JMS10 as a gift. Spooled with 180 yds of 4lb Trilene XL for a trip north. Over 7 days constant problem with line tangling. Went through an entire spool of line. In over 40 years of fishing, I have never even remotely experienced so many bird's nests with any other of the 18 reels that I own from various major brands. Reading the reviews, this is a problem experienced by others.

These are greatI own 9 of these JM spinning reels and 6 JM baitcasters. I have never had a single problem with ANY of them. After reading the reviews, I was almost hesitant to purchase my 9th one. But I fish every day for 4 months in Florida and then the rest of the year in WI. These are the best reels I have ever owned. I have caught hundreds of bass with these and a few Muskys. Look at what the pros use on the fishing shows, JM!

You should be able to use this reel for all of the fish you mentioned depending on what pound test line you use for each species.

I am having difficulty removing the side cover on my JMS20H spinning reel. The unit will not separate after I removed the handle and all of the screws
I have tried wiggling the side plate while gently pulling upward and backward, but I am hesitant to put any muscle on it for fear of creating damage.
Asked by: JohnnyAngel
1) Remove spool and handle
2) Remove drag gear and washer from spool shaft
3) Remove keeper screw and nut that hold the rotor on
4) Remove rotor
5) Remove rear butt cap
6) Remove the 4 screws holding the side plate on
7) Pull straight up to remove the side plate

Stainless Interior Parts?
What is this newer JM series using for internal parts, Stainless Steel or lesser quality material that will corrode easily?
Asked by: Larry4Bass
not sue about interior parts but my experience in fresh water is the coatings on the bail flakes off and so it will be worse in salt water!
They need to fix this quality control issue
