Whoa. I didn’t know weights got that big or that there was such a thing roller rod. The videos where you fish with old stuff from eBay are my favorite. Thanks for the video.

I have the size 20 I use it for a catfish and I want to get on the ocean with it

I’m a fan of Medium action rods for cats. Sensitive enough for a 5 pounder, strong enough for 60+. Perfect amount of stiffness for a hook set unless you have like 300 ft of line out. If that’s the case, a heavy. Just my $.02, we all know what the saying is about opinions though. What’s everyone else’s thoughts?

I don't think there's an industry standard for rating fishing rods. There's quite a difference between manufacturers

Are you still liking these?

Such a good video. I'm trying to decide between the Penn Squall2 15 Casting Special or the Okuma Cortez size 5-csa. Both have the magnetic casting assist. What do you think is best? Mostly pier fishing is SF Bay.

The current world long distance casting record is held by a bait casting reel. Using a 4 ounce weight and 12--14 foot rod--the record is right at 1000 feet.

Reel men don't need no stinkin drag lol. Nice fish on that reel Jack.

Good job Rick

You think the 40 is a little too big? I have one on order and think I may have gone overboard side wise, I intend to use mine for sturgeon/channels/flathead

Great video! Glad you enjoy the reel, just ordered a saltist myself, I went with the 40 size for the 22 pound drag. Here in MN we find 50+ pound flatheads and 70+ inch 100+ pound lake sturgeon, my abu's are great but I felt the 15 pound drag wasn't strong enough at times especially for big lake sturgeon- which fight harder than any channel or flat I've ever caught.

Great video! Congratulations. I have seen other videos of guys catching smaller catfish but with the Ugly Stik Striper rods. That Tiger rod you have sure seems to handle them way better. Do you have a video or know of any comparing the Ugly Stik Bigwater Rod vs Tiger Rod vs Striper Rod? It would be nice to see how far up the reel sits, the 'bend' of the rod with the same amount of weight, and maybe cast-ability if possible. Sooo many videos of Ugly Stik rods but nobody compares them side by side.

You sound like an army Sargent 😂😂

hey jack you should try fishing wirh triple S channel cat bait formerly it was known as sonnys super sticky channel cat bait and it’s manufactured by Hootman brothers made in Farmington Iowa

I love my 2024 minn kota terrova, it has drift mode. Just point into wind and troll off the sides or horizontal off the back. Now going up wind is always easy which you can use homemade planer boards which allows me to put out 8 rods, on my modified 2023 G3 Camo Sportman 1710 PFX. I say modified because I fish everything out of it from Bass, Strippers, Crappie and Catfish. I made a trolling bar that is straight except for the middle which has a small arch for engine clearance. The entire bar rotates 45○ and a cut board which can be rotated as well. This bar has 3 detent push pins for super fast positioning of bar and cut board. The purpose is to adjust rod tip heights 4 positions- Catfish/Strippers down to tips above water for crappie trolling. The rod holders never need adjusting individually. People are amazed by the use and design. Also fitted my boat with Millennium fishing pedestal umbrellas for both rain and shade for southern heat. To store the umbrellas, my rod locker lid has storage straps which I installed.

I use a couple 20-50# Ugly stick Tigers up here in S.E. AK f or jigging halibut and redsnapper/Yellow eye... good rods in my opinion ... hood choice.. ive replace tops and refuse to replace.. but now ive gotten a salmon trolling stick and i am happy so far!! Quality for half the price. My son uses nothing but stick from trout to steelhead ,salmon, halibut/jigging.. im about to get him a new halibut rod for his bday..that was a nice 54 cat

I hope you’re doing more videos, just came across this that you made many moons ago, there’s new phases that you need to make. Thank you again for these videos

Nice video! What type of camera are you using to shoot your videos?

You didn't see that smoke

Chicken or chicken livers??? People tell me all kinds of stuff. You said chicken, so I had to ask.

What bait do you suggest for freshwater, as far as something that will really catch them, great bait??? I'm just starting disabled vet who finally reached retirement age. After 12 years I finally get a check, but it's not much. But as the wife says even a little is better than none. Looking to buy something that will last me as far as reels. I can sit and fish since I can't walk but a few feet at a time. Do you think this reel will last? A lot of questions, sorry. Any help would be appreciated.

Nice video thanks I picked up a 7000 this spring so far so good but biggest is only a 20# FH

Try reeling one In that’s 30-40 lbs when they’re hooked in the back

Those Asian carp make great garden fertilizer catfish is some really good eating food .

How do you store your shrimp if you don't use it all how long will they stay

why do people say they dont like em if they are made in china that model you are fishing with is made in china is the quality the same as a made in sweden model? im thinking of buying one

i have a vintage abu garcia 5500 that i had 30lb braid on with a 2oz sinker its a bronze bushing reel proly over 200 yards worth of braid i cast to the backing on it lol

Nice cast I throughly 12 and a whole surf clam for striper in th ocean surf 60 my limet any heaver and tide takes everything down the beach😊

My spool tension knob was too loose and dropped in the lake last week. I hope I don’t need it

Loosen up the spool tension and use your thumb. That's why God gave you thumbs.

im a rooky but doesn't it also depend on how tight you preset the brake or is all 100% released ?

Can u please help me dial in my reels the level wind ones I’m having trouble with snapping lines

why did you put back in the water your fish?

Are the black and gold ones penns

Diawa Diawa Diawa!!! (I'm chanting) 👏👏😂

Nice Catch

great work

Keep up fishing on🎣.much love 🐟

Was this rod successful for casting distance? Im just asking because ive got one in the cart online

I completely understand what your doing and I've considered it. I use 8 and 9 foot surf rods for catfishing (16 oz) and (20 oz) lure weight. Ive wondered if I used a roller guided rod would it increase my casting even more.

Uhh, what's with the abrupt stop at the end of each cast? When I cast super far the speed of the line coming off the spool always gradually slows down before it hits the water. Are u PURPOSELY stopping it abruptly? If so why?

Abu reels and their clones are wonderful casting reels but they don't offer the retrieval power and durability of more modern Daiwa and Avet reels.

Thanks for video

interesting take on braid, where im from in aus its pretty widely accepted that its harder to work with but gives further cast, good video mate

Try the Okuma Sea Demon too.

May I ask where you purchase the reel from?

Thanks for your input, just ordered this reel as my first conventional reel. Fingers crossed.

Great video. I fish in north Alabama for big cats on the Tennessee river and have several of both and like them equally. They are just different. I had to watch the video twice because the first time I was too worried you were going to fall over the side…and that water has to be cold!!!

That was one hell of a day of fishing Jack. Nice job landing those fish at less than 100%.

Nice video sir, thanks and I will share it with my friends
