Also if you have ideas how to fix that please share a video and show me where to fix it I would really appreciate it bro. Been watching all ur videos and buy some bfs reels you be recommending thank again.
I was wondering does ur reels on the main staff does it have a little play on it. I was just wondering cuz mine I got it everything is very smooth but the main gear staff have a little play in and out. Let me know thanks.
Kastking valiant eagle 2 pro vs histar aurora air, Which one is better????
Where is the tear down video and how do you think we can adjust the line lay if it is missing a bit on the far right and left?
Man it's been 2 years a update would be nice 😅
I cast with either hand but reel with my right
Как же любят китайцы изобретать велосипед из раза в раз.
Short answer : Yep😅
Picked this up based on your review. They’re actually sending me a ‘plus’ version because they sold out of the original. The Plus has an updated line guide and a some metal component that replaced what was previously Nylon. And also it’s pink af. Like seriously very pink lol. Plan on sharpie-ing once it gets in. Cheers
My first was a 3 n half ..I just got into bait finesse this winter with a Kestral Elite BFS paired to Dobyn’s Sierra 701(1 power ) light ..super happy I went to it ..I am looking to add to my collection for some thst are better with smaller trebles ..heard the Dobyns was great all around so far super happy ..the Kestral 200 dollar value cast 1/16th oz and can pitch baits with ease..the drag system amazes me …seems like whatever pairing u have is similar , the reel is letting drag go..love how it’s easy to hear like my Kestral!! Gives me a lot peace of mind fighting em. Nice man!!! Any suggestions on a good small treble hook rod for say my tiny finesse jerkbaits and small top waters, tiny cranks ?!
У histar нет проблем с контролем качества. У histar есть проблемы, связанные с производством любого массового продукта. За то время, пока на конвейере собирают одну более дорогую катушку , настраивая ее и убирая люфты , чтобы получить дешёвую histar , работник должен собрать несколько катушек . Иначе цена катушки будет выше.
Hey Anjey! I think that is another way of saying they have issues with quality control? What do you think? Cheers my friend!
@@BFSFISHINGCHANNEL это принцип производства любого массового продукта , связанный с низкой ценой . Естественно это имеет значение на уровень качества конечного продукта и с этим ничего не поделать . Иначе себестоимость вырастет. Естественно и в техническом задании для этого устанавливаются не такие строгие рамки , как в более дорогих . Это просто необходимо понимать при покупке недорогих вещей. По другому невозможно произвести такой дешёвый продукт. Главное это вполне рабочий продукт, который соответствует основным требованиям предъявляемым производителем и покупателем . Никакой магии , всё экономически обусловлено . Магия начинается, когда начинается маркетинг , чтобы подобный продукт продать значительно дороже, как в случае с giu , чтобы больше заработать.😊😊
I just picked up an Ark Gravity BFS and the box I got from Ark is exactly the same as the "Review unit" packaging you got there. Only difference is mine had a small instruction manual too
Hey Daniel! Hm… that is a bit odd. How does the reel work? Cheers my friend!
@@BFSFISHINGCHANNEL Love the Gravity BFS! Very easy to setup and the braking system is amazing. Was easier to dial in my brakes on the Gravity BFS with flouro than on my SLX DC
Hey BFS FISHING CHANNEL, Which handle set is? I’ve been wanting to change mines on the Loongze as well. Could you link me to it?
Hey Ed! I think you might be referring to the daiwa rcs 80mm handle. I was able to find it on amazon. Cheers my friend!
@ Thank you! i will have to check it out
Thanks for the video. My issue is about changing Modes on the reel. I tried following the "manual". And other recommendations (UA-cam). But I still only get the Blue light. So no Master Mode for me so far. That's a bummer. In an other videos you did address this but with no real solution (so far). You do recommend this reel. So how can I get into the Master Mode (Red light) ? Would be helpful to have a video on that issue. Thanks for all your informative videos. 👍🐟
Hey Gisli! The way I get the modes to switch is to just keep the reel in the M brake setting and keep casting until I see the color change. Not ideal but it’s the only way I’ve gotten it to work. Sometimes it changes on the first cast and sometimes the 30th… Cheers my friend!
I recalled you saying something about replacing the drag clicker in the MEIIC in this video and was wanting to make that replacement. Could you tell me where I could find that part?
Hey Thomagg! Yep I wanted to test out the clicker before making a solid recommendation for it. It’s not perfect but you can find some options on aliexpress. Let me know if you’re still interested. Cheers my friend!
@ Thanks for the reply! I was actually looking at some recently. I should’ve thought to measure the gear when I had it broken down a few weeks ago for a repair.
Epic! Good release,, he’d been mangled up on his nose so he’s got a history like an old prize fighter.
Hey David! No doubt a fish that’s been around =). Hope to get into some more big ones this spring! Cheers my friend!
How many meters can a 0.6 g bait be thrown?
Hey babu! The Acura Pro isn’t as good at casting 0.6g lures as newer reels now but it can probably get around 18-22ft or so. Cheers my friend!
Can you please do a review on the black dk100?
I just got one a couple weeks ago. I am looking to put a video together and go after some slot/upper/overslot redfish
Hey Stefan! I would imagine it’s very similar to the non anodized dk100 but with a better surface finish and potentially smoother gearing. Cheers my friend!
Got several upper slot reds yesterday !!!
yo your reel isn't right it doesn't sound right...mine doesn't sound like that
Hey Matthew! Which reel were you referring to Ooc? Cheers my friend!
hey, can i ask you some question? Should I mark each gear, especially the main gear and pinion gear, to ensure the reset remains accurate and avoids misalignment?
Hey naifa! Sorry I’m not sure I quite understand what you are trying to say. My apologies! Cheers my friend!
Lol throw in verdant. You don't have to just asking
Hey Patrick! Thanks so much for the gift! Cheers my friend!
Do i have do dissasemble everything to put the worm gear washers in
Hey Linus! Sorry for the confusion but what are you referring to by worm gear washer? Do you mean bearings? Cheers my friend!
Does anybody know where i cam find a replacement spool for this one? I bent mine
Hey Daniel! Hm… where did you purchase your reel from? Was it digitaka or plat? If so, I would reach out to them and see if they can order you a replacement spool. Cheers my friend!
Hey! Late comment but what is your recommendation for the best reel for baits in the 3 gram range? Anyways great video as always!
Hey Christian! There’s lots of options out there. I would ask what your budget range is? Cheers my friend!
@ probably up to $200 maybe a little more.
What was the small tackle box you had your hard baits in?
Hey Amy! It’s a small tackle box that I picked up on aliexpress. Which color was the tackle box Ooc? I have a few. Cheers my friend!
Can you use it safely in the colder weather lold 0 to -5 degrees?
Hey her! I would probably not as this does use a small battery and the reel frame is aluminum. It does have plastic covers but they may become brittle and fracture through use. Hope that helps and cheers my friend!
@ okee i ment celsius is it then still the same anwser?
Just an update, I did grab the MIIEC DC reel on the sale and must say great advice as I am loving it!!! I have given it enough use to give it a short term 10 out of 10 in master mode, I never could get it to change to the practice mode but it is great in that master mode. Also if you or any fellow viewers can help me figure out what is causing my SLX BFS to sound very strange as well as not spinning as freely as my Curado BFS I would greatly appreciate any thoughts. I made video short to display the issue, as I don't make UA-cam videos it took quite a bit of effort for such a simple video and you will see I am clearly not a content creator. Anyone willing to look and offer advice I would greatly appreciate it, ua-cam.com/users/shorts3mFFPq9pMuU?si=aLSxHb0mEjV0TG84 , Thanks to anyone who could steer me down the right track!
@@abelabner hey Abel! That’s awesome to hear! The MIIEC exa is an awesome reel no doubt. I did just watch your short and I think your bearings may be dirty. It could also be that your worm shaft and pawl may have some debris in the track. In any case, it might be a good excuse to do a teardown and maintenance/cleaning of the reel. Hope that helps! Happy holidays and cheers my friend!
@@BFSFISHINGCHANNEL Thank you for your input, it is much appreciated, will definitely do a full on tear down!
@@BFSFISHINGCHANNEL I just wanted to give you an update. I took your advice and did a complete tear down and maintenance. I discovered the pinion bearing was faulty, at first I wasn't sure it was but after flushing and spinning it on a bearing removal tool it became clear it certainly was. I swapped it out for a similar ZZ bearing of the same size and it solved the issue!! Thanks again for taking some time to reply to my inquiry!😃😃😃👏👏👏
I know this is older video, but how do you keep the swimbait not rolling over when you retrieve? Not using jig head, it tends to roll in my experience. Do you just ignore the rolling as long as it kicks straight enough, or do you retrieve very slowly? Thanks!
Hey Nero! I typically use EWG hooks which typically weight the lure heavier where the shank of the hook is. Additionally, when I use a weightless setup with EWG I typically don’t swim my swimbait with a steady retrieve. I like to vary the action from a really slow bumpbumpbump retrieve to a lift and fall to just letting the lure sit on the ground for a while. My local fishery doesn’t really call for a static speed swimming action much. Hope that helps! Happy holidays and cheers my friend!
Thanks for the reply man! I guess you just work it like weightless worm. That explains - i wont have to worry much about staying up right as long as it's not kinked and will kick.
Which one better, ve 2 or histar aurora?
Hey ayes! Ooc are you meaning to ask between the VE2 pro and the Aurora Air? Or… do you mean the VE2 and Aurora? The reels are all different so just trying to get some clarity on your question. Cheers my friend and happy holidays!
Why not open part in drag clicker
Hey haha! Hm… I’m not sure. This video was made quite a while back. Anywho, apologies for the really delayed response and happy holidays to you! Cheers my friend!
My g, I was wondering if you know anything about the shimano curado 150? And the daiwa tatula elite? Do you know what reel in those families is the best 1? The silver feather elite was a good recommendation. I need a 3rd reel not bfs.
Hey hcb! Unfortunately, no I have no experience with that reel. Also, it being a 150 size means that it is at the upper end of the bfs spectrum and not something I will likely look at. Apologies for the really delayed response and happy holidays to you! Cheers my friend!
@@BFSFISHINGCHANNEL thank you for the heads up. I ended up getting the shimano 22 bantam and the daiwa zillion tw HD 2022 :Jdm: ( theirs a 2024). I was also looking into the shimano scorpion 300 about to come out in Japan and left hand reels in 2025 with 8 interns breaks and 6-8 mag breaks. Only it’s not a mgl spool and that’s why I haven’t jumped on it + it’s not out yet.
I hate this fishing line gauge shit,the only measurement that crosses between metric and standard but is used in different circumstances. I have NO fugging clue what .6 line means,i thought 1 was like 2 or 4 lb so when it goes below that im especially short circuting.
Hey Ron! I hear ya! It was meant to be a way for the Japanese market to standardize braided line. Roughly 0.6goh braid equates to around 0.128mm diameter and about 10-12lb breaking strain. Hope that helps! Apologies for the really delayed response and happy holidays to you! Cheers my friend!
hey tournament angler here, just getting into bfs. buying pure lure miiex exa was gonna match with this rod you think it can handle big bass?
Hey peg! Ooc how heavy are we talking? I’m sure the rods can handle 5lb to maybe 10lb(need to use appropriate drag though and tire the fish out properly) but I would advise against high sticking and/or boat flipping as they will likely get damaged. Hope that helps! Cheers my friend!
Agree with you. The reel performs well, but the qc issue really mess up the potential. Thanks for the video. Will fix mine 🤙
Hey grim! Right on! Yea it’s a good value but the QC has been very hit or miss with these reels sadly… Apologies for the really delayed response and happy holidays to you! Cheers my friend!
What line do you use mono or braided?
Hey her! I uses braided. Hope that helps! Cheers my friend!
noob question, if a spool pin has a tiny C clip attached in the pin, would it be best to remove the c clip before using the spool pin remover or just using the remover tool is okay?
Hey zz! Yes please remove the c-clip first as it is what is holding the spool pin in place on the spool shaft. If you don’t remove the c-clip you will likely end up either losing the c-clip or getting it stuck in the spool shaft somehow. Hope that helps! Apologies for the really delayed response and happy holidays to you! Cheers my friend!
if im targeting larger bass (tournaments) what you think is the better purelure rod im loving the zero! but this one seemed to hold up well as well
Hey peg! Hm I think you’re referring to the 76 zero vs the 63 zero I’m using in this video? If that’s the case I do slightly prefer the 63 length. Easier to control, casts well(maybe not nearly as far as the 76), has a better length to guide ratio and is better balanced in the hand than the 76. Hope that helps! Apologies for the really delayed response and happy holidays to you! Cheers my friend!
I want to buy a classic abu reel, they are easy to disassemble and mantain. Do you recommend me this one or the 6000c in terms of build quality?
Hey Alan! Ooc what will you be using the reel for? The 1500c/2500c sizes are more for freshwater bass and trout fishing and can be “bfs tuned” to allow for casting lightweight lures. The 6000c is a much larger sized reel and not quite suited to bfs use. Hope that helps! Apologies for the really delayed response and happy holidays to you! Cheers my friend!
@@BFSFISHINGCHANNEL Thanks, so the 6000 will suit my requirements. Happy holidays and holinights my joven amigo.
Cual recomienda, loongze dbc o pure lure? No se si vale la pena invertir mas dinero en loogze
Hey jh! Imho, I would recommend the purelure/DMK over the loongze. I do believe loongze has made some updates to their b50/51 dbc reel but the price differential between these two reels is quite high and the purelure/DMK is a phenomenal reel for the price. Hope that helps! Apologies for the really delayed response and happy holidays to you! Cheers my friend!
7.5ft is quite common for saltwater rods.
Hey tomeuk! You are absolutely correct! It’s a bit less common to use this length in a freshwater setting especially for bfs but it fits the bill quite nicely. Apologies for the really delayed response and happy holidays to you! Cheers my friend!
Have you found a fix for the tough Brake Adjustment Dials on Shimano baitcast reels? I called Shimano today, they said they don't offer tech support. This issue is very common to Curado BFS XG and many other models.
Hey Charlie! Unfortunately I have not… I actually returned the Curado I purchased as I was a bit underwhelmed by its construction =/. Sorry I’m not able to help you in this regard and apologies for the really delayed response and happy holidays to you! Cheers my friend!
@@BFSFISHINGCHANNEL Hey, my friend! What happened with your Curado? I mean, what's the problem with its construction?
Do you know if the handle assembly can be changed out?
Hey Joe! Yes, of course! Apologies for the really delayed response and happy holidays to you! Cheers my friend!
3:57 could you drill your own pattern into it and it not jack the qhole systems weight and everything up to work together?
Hey Ron! Apologies for the really delayed response and happy holidays to you! Unfortunately, I don’t think that your solution is a viable one unless you have a way to drill the holes in a balanced manner. If you were to do it by hand you would likely change the balance of the spool and make it want to wobble which would upset the casting characteristics of the reel. Hope that helps and cheers my friend!
great, would like to see a test on their darg, 4kg really? and how reel body do when under the max darg, one thing really want to know is, are they strong enough at this kind of weight even the JP expensive reels can't do
Hey vvvv! I can def look into this as I recently got a drag gauge. As far as frame flex goes though I’m not sure how I can quantify that but I don’t think it would be a big issue with a carbon frame reel. Nylon, on the other hand, might as the flex will be a bit more. The other thing is is that high end jdm reels tend to use different materials like magnesium and at that point you’re comparing apples to oranges. That said, you can indeed find magnesium framed CDM reels like the FF01 Cormorant. Anywho, thanks so much for commenting and cheers my friend!
@@BFSFISHINGCHANNEL looking forward to your test video, it is true that max 4KG reels don't need a strong frame to function but a good frame makes them work smoother and last longer, there are some AL frame reels on Taobo(ali) in the price range of 40-50 US oh ya, i am from HK, i read chinese and always buy fishing tools from taobo, thats why i never trust the specs
New subscriber here. Enjoy the vids and info!! Can you recommend to me a non BFS baitcaster from Aliexpress. My brain hurts with all the options on there. I would be using the reel on a medium heavy rod fishing spinnerbaits, texas rigs etc... thanks in advance for the info. A bonus would be if i could use the reel inshore in Brackish water. Thks again
Hey drop! Thanks so much for the follow! Really hope the channel gives you good value and education. Regarding your request, I’m probably not the best to ask but I can take a look. What kind of lure weights are you looking at, what sort of price range, and what fish species are you targeting? Apologies for the late response btw, thanksgiving was spent with a sick kid so my priorities were elsewhere. Look forward to your response and cheers my friend!
@BFSFISHINGCHANNEL thks so much for getting back to me. I live in South Louisiana. If I'm not bass fishing I'm fishing inshore brackish water catching Speckled Trout and Redfish. Generally, Texas rigged worms are fished with 1/4 oz bullet weight. Spinner baits are 1/2 oz. Swim jigs are 3/8 oz. Reds and specks I use a 1/4 to 1/2 oz jig head with paddletail plastics. I can spend up to $100. Thks in advance for the info
