    Trevor Weeks, Owner of @reel_tweeks, gives his professional opinion about the hottest fishing reel on the market. Bates Fishing Co. baitcasting reels are the only low profile reels that are made from an all CNC milled single piece of 6061-T-6 aluminum. The Hundo seen in this video weighs only 5 ounces... and has 14 lbs of drag!

    You fixed my Bates Reel! It’s a small world. I sent it in for a warranty fix and your card was in the return box 👍

    Bought this reel as Christmas present for myself back in October. Finally fished it on my bachelor trip in south TX. Let me tell you it was worth the wait. I have many high end reels that and this one takes the cake.

    Could you please compare the Hundo to the Zillion SV TW 103. I have the Zillion & love it except for the way the finish scratches so easily. They cost about the same, so if the Hundo is better or the same casting , I’d like to try one. Does anyone have experience with both?

    Is it supposed to click when you pull drag

    • @fishing_reps
      @fishing_reps  Рік тому +2

      Yes it is. There is a mechanism on the drag washer that makes a clicking sound when the drag is pulled.

      Hello, I just got the Hundo a few days ago. The spool weighs 10gm

    As an engineer, having threaded yoke posts seems to be a bad choice. The added manufacturing to do a thread and tap on for member that sees no bending, twisting, or axial loading is wasteful. Additionally, if damaged or stripped it would likely be more expensive and difficult to fix.

    • @fishing_reps
      @fishing_reps  Рік тому +2

      We will definitely be keeping on eye on the yolks posts but so far not one Hundo sold and used has had an issue with that part.

    • @ETuss713
      @ETuss713 Рік тому +1

      @@fishing_reps I doubt there will ever be much of an issue since it sees no loading. I'd think the only time it would have an issue is when someone is disassembling the reel. Are both the post and the tapped portion aluminum?

      We did. It's in our other video on this channel. We do use this model in saltwater and it holds up very well BTW.
