It's still going strong! I been using it in a snagging rod.

@squirrelsmagnetfishingoutdoors thanks Squirrel! Appreciate ya watching

I think it would be a little small for tuna. Probably not near enough line capacity or drag.

@@FishinNFreedom1776 hmm. Ok so this can hold .400 meter 37mm 56lb threaded line is that not enough for like 50 lb tuna ? Or am I missing something?

@armenmkrtchyan4865 oh I was thinking like huge yellow fin or something lol.. I'm not a saltwater guy. Yea it should be plenty big enough for that.

@@FishinNFreedom1776 oh good. Yeah should be ok I guess for a first reel. Thank you

@carlbridgeforth3651 yea he was a dandy! Appreciate you watching!

@jcmtz0814 thanks so much for subscribing! Really appreciate it. Yes sir when you get your brakes set were you like them you can just leave them there. Once I get mine casting good I just leave em until I change weights or put a big heavy bait on, may tighten it up a little so i dont backlash.. ( i still backlash sometimes lol ) Only thing you'll really need to adjust is the drag when needed. Thanks again hope you enjoy the reel!

@Garcia267 you talking about the Souygayilang from an old video? If so it's got 40lb Berkley Big Game. No Temu reels in this video

@@FishinNFreedom1776 okay thank you 🙏

@CogglesnatchCrumplehorn I used to get that alot too.. I started using better swivels and it has stopped alot of that. I use the River Cats Tackle 3 ways. They are really great swivels. I'll give ya the link to them... www.rivercatstackle.com/store/product/3-way-luminous-swivels

@MRCristLE-r that would really depend on what fish are you targeting and it what waters. Like are you fishing lakes or rivers with current? That would determine what kind of basic gear I would recommend such as rods and Reels. You may not need big reels with tons of line capacity and drag if you are mostly gonna be catching channel cats and small blues ect.. if you are gonna be in heavy current and there are big blues and flatheads then you will need to get something a little more beefy that can handle those situations. Tell me a little about where and for what you are fishing. That will also determine what kind of terminal tackle you will need too..

@@FishinNFreedom1776 I fish for panfish bass and anything like that I fish in a shallow river

I really like more hands on fishing lures but also like a Texas rig

I really like fishing for cats too I fish at deep river and marroe mountain

Yea i think it's graphite.

Yea for sure. If you are on a budget and just need some reels they will get ya out there. It's been a few years since I bought this one. But for the record it's still working fine!

@@FishinNFreedom1776 yeah still looking around, thief grabbed my stuff I was gonna take back home to fish but getting their, tight lines!

That was a Trophy Cat Tackle med/hvy Black Magic rod

Thanks buddy, appreciate ya. We definitely need to get together and do some fishing one these days!

I don't think you will regret it. Have had great luck with mine. Thank you for watching and for the comments! Hope you catch some good ones with your new reel 👍🏻

Yea I don't get many bites out there. It's kinda snaggy too.. 😁

I ended up buying I think 6 of these. Had very little issues with them. The clicker in one of them went bad, the spool engagement button on one got hard to depress. Was able to keep using them all though. I have given them all to my brother and he is still using them all. I think there are better ones out there, but for the money I say they have held up well and are good reels. Thanks for watching and for the comment 👍🏻

@@FishinNFreedom1776 Thanks for the quick reply!

Man I been meaning to do a video on them. I get several of them and you would not be disappointed! They are sweet!

@FishinNFreedom1776 look forward to seeing a video on them. I love my Cabela's Salt Striker SS80-B spinning reels, but been looking to try something different

Probably won't ship till Tuesday due to the holiday Monday.. but should get there pretty quick. Shipping department is on it! I would say by end of the week.

@@FishinNFreedom1776 ok thanks sorry about all the questions

@jonathanwombles5004 no problem at all

Hope you enjoy the reel, thanks for watching and thanks for the support. 👍🏻

Hey is there anyway to trade my purple out for the orange one?

@jonathanwombles5004 I contacted the store for ya, they gonna take care of ya and switch out for an organge one. 👍🏻

Thank you my bad i just look at my rod orange look better

If you meant the gear ratio is 3:4.1 I just asked the owner he said they are 3:7.1 thanks for watching

I didn't start at any specific point on the spool.. I would say tighten the spool tension know quite a bit more until it doesn't Backlash then start loosening a little at a time. Sounds like the the spool is just very loose, I could be wrong. I just spooled mine normally going on the reel the same direction it came off the spool.. keep me updated, let me know what ya get figured out please..

@@FishinNFreedom1776 Thank you ill keep that in mind next time i go fish. Im using a 6’6ft rod and was told by someone that i should change rod because its too short. ill let you know what happens🙏

@icaDauz I have some 6 ft Kayak rods.. never had any problems casting bigger reels with them.

@@FishinNFreedom1776 Hey richard i tuned the tension knob today and did some dry casts out in the bayou and man it was the relief i felt when it casted perfectly. i had just put some 80lbs braid on today bc im not really a mono kinda guy and i was really hoping i didnt mess it up first cast. i appreciate you alot man🙏thanks for being helpful

@icaDauz Man that's great to hear! Glad wasn't nothing wrong with the reel. I sure appreciate you watching and for the support. Hope ya catch some good fish on the reel! 👊🏻

Thank you for watching and for the comment! Hope you have a blessed one too 👍🏻

More fishin stuff.
