Great video John beautiful place you have fun fishing and making videos and giving review I really enjoy watching your videos hope you have a very merry Christmas and a happy new years
Just picked up one off eBay. Damn these things are sold out everywhere! Must be a good reel! Is it still serviceable now that’s been a year later after your review? Thx
Nice video 👍 just bought the 2000 series and man it’s so smooth 🧈 and it’s budget friendly because I’m sorry but I’m not down to spend over 100 bones for a reel.
Good size bass that reel handled it good I'm planning on getting me a couple new reels tax time might try one of those see how it does on them conasuga river spots
Did I hear you say you were using the 6lb braid? Looks like it was working well and were you using a leader or just straight braid? Also what brand braid?
Looks like a nice reel. I have been looking at a stream trout setup. 6'6" ultralight rod fast tip and need to find a reel to go with it. This might be the answer. As always great job.
Bass pro shops has a sale on their new crappie maxx pro series rods. The red ones. I believe they are $34.99. If you get a chance to purchase one could you do a review on it?
I know guys that only go fishing with rod and reel combos for at 400-600$ and their tackle box costs at least same money. Well, I dont need a rolls royce for my personality. So your combo would fit for me perfect. Especially the rod, but I dont get it in europe. ;o) Keep fishing! BTW: are there tournaments like " the most species a day with just one rod?" That would fit the best allrounder.
I have a Vigelante rod and love it, but I have a fifty dollar Abu Garcia reel on it. I actually like ultra light fishing. I don't find much fun in rod, reels, and line so strong you can just crank in the largest fish without any fight to it. Other than a couple of deep water cat rigs, this is the heaviset rod I have. I also love taking a Zebco 202 rod and reel and see what size fish I can catch on it. I went fishing for cats with the 202, hooked a thirty-five pound caerp instead of the cat I wanted, but landed it after an hour. Not bad with a Zebco 202 and four pound line.
Nice bass! I sure appreciate you going over the species. I'm finding out me and my posse were not calling fish the correct names. Seems we called a lot of sunfish perch. But 5 minutes ago I read sunfish can be called perch or bream or brim. I did see you catch a longer fish which you actually called it a perch. This was on another upload. I just find all the species and where they are located very fascinating like the Coosa or redeye bass. Thanks for all the fishing. The next best thing to fishing is watching someone else fish. Well, there may be a few other next best things.
yah, since late december i have fished at small creeks about 20 times and only had 2 or 3 ok trips . i have been going to bigger water to find stuff. the creek fish really seem to shut down when it gets cold
Great looking combo you have there. I have 2 spinning rod combo's that I use for alot of creek and pond fishing. Both Ugly Stik's. 1 is ultra light combo. 4'8" with a reel a bit smaller than your Piscifun there. I fish 4' mono of that. Thats the one I fish trout and panfish magnets on, and several other small baits. Crick Hoppers too. The second is a Ugly Stik gx2, 6'0 light action. I use it for trout but it works great for bass and other species. The reel I have on it is a Kastking Sharky II 1500. I have fished it over a year now and it's worked great. I spool it with either 6 lb mono or 20 lb power pro braid. Would like to try a lighter braid on it. Tight lines brother!
John have you ever tryed out ugly stick dick hooper combo at walmart it's a ultralight setup I am going to get one for myself after Christmas I think it would be great for some of the small places like you to if I had it I would send one just to see what you think about it
Found a decent spot by work been fishing on lunch and catching some good ones
fishing break
Really enjoying all your videos. Very genuine and relatable. Thank you.
Great video that looks like a pretty good reel end it looks cool to
sweet reel, sweet fish brother!
thanks, i can hardly get anything to bite in the small creeks during the winter, but the river has been good
dang you weren't kidding about that bass. that thing was impressive
Great video John beautiful place you have fun fishing and making videos and giving review I really enjoy watching your videos hope you have a very merry Christmas and a happy new years
I have 3, vipers 2s and a carbonX , quality reels , i never use my prfuegers anymore 😁
That was awesome brotha nice looking reel and thanks for the info on them.
I have the original viper and I love it!! Might have to invest in this one!
Saw your Instagram post wishing that you could post a video about it but didn’t have enough content. Nice reel!
Fishing has been slow for me
Moving up in the world bud
great catch, 5 species, good review on reel also. 👍👍👍👍👍
Just picked up one off eBay. Damn these things are sold out everywhere! Must be a good reel! Is it still serviceable now that’s been a year later after your review? Thx
yeah i still like it
Hey man if you still do mystery tacklebox you should do a Nother unboxing Man that's crazy that you caught that bass on A bluegill head
I don’t get them anymore
Awesome video! Viper 2 is one of our favorites !
glad i could get one, it will be used a lot
I believe I have fished there before. Or maybe not.
Funny name for a reel, tho seems A,OK, for the price. Tho the real test is how long will it last? Tom DB, FL.
its probably the most used reel i have, and i still like it
What was that rod? Didnt quite hear...
Bro! Review Piscifun carbon X 1000 river test
Keep the braid tie a leader like you should
Where do you park when you go underneath the bridge down below Charleston boat ramp?
on the side of the road beside the stop sign
Nice video 👍 just bought the 2000 series and man it’s so smooth 🧈 and it’s budget friendly because I’m sorry but I’m not down to spend over 100 bones for a reel.
Good size bass that reel handled it good I'm planning on getting me a couple new reels tax time might try one of those see how it does on them conasuga river spots
oh i cant wait to get some of those aggressive fish
Nice looking reel, for the price you can’t beat it. Great video 👊🏻
i have been using it a bunch, seems solid
i too just got the Viper 2 reel! i'm spooling it up today. where is this spot you are fishing?
beside charelston boat ramp
Nice looking reel nice bass man
thanks, now i need to get a catfish soon also
@@CreekFishingAdventures i hear ya i need more cats too
Great video and nice reel. Great way to test it out. Hopefully it will hold up to all the creekin. 👊👍
i will put it to the test for sure
As far as gear ratio's- I noticed on a beautiful Shimano mid 1980's spinning reel I have I have to reel like crazy for a fast retrieve.
Nice bass.
Piscifun makes a tool for lining reels, it works good.
i have seen that, looks helpful
Wow wow nice videos bro 🤩🤩
Did I hear you say you were using the 6lb braid? Looks like it was working well and were you using a leader or just straight braid? Also what brand braid?
Oh you answered at the end. Jumped the gun.
The line was impressive , but I did end up switching it out for 4 lb mono. It works better for the kind of fishing I use it for
Anyway I can get a shoutout
What pound line
Looks like a nice reel.
I have been looking at a stream trout setup. 6'6" ultralight rod fast tip and need to find a reel to go with it. This might be the answer.
As always great job.
Hey where was u fishing at on this video???
hiwassee river

i will try to check them out, thanks
Sounds good. 👍
Awesome video. I am going to see if they make any 500 series reels.
yah i didnt see any

formulized94
What about a 1000 size reel with similar size as 500?
Nice

that sounds like a interesting tournament, never heard of one like that but it would be fun to set up
Nice bass friend. Crappie ain’t bad either.
I will keep this in mind because I need to replace the reel on my go-to setup.
Do you run a leader with the braid?
Yes. About 6 ft

That sounds like a fun challenge. Bring back some cheap rod and reals for big fish
What line was you using sir?
i was using piscifun 6 lb braid, but now i have switched back to 4lb mono and like it on there

Thanks for all the fishing. The next best thing to fishing is watching someone else fish. Well, there may be a few other next best things.
i like learning different species, because there are so many different ones out there, and some areas have different variations
Where can you get them at and I just got a favorite 7 3" flipping stick would you go broadcaster or spinning reel thanks great video. God bless you
there is a couple links for piscifun in my comments that will take you to the website
Love your videos.... like your humbleness
Another great video and great review on the rod and reel! Has the water slowed down any?
they have lowered some of thelevels but the flow has been pretty strong
You about ready to go catch some perch?
@@bucksniper65 yah
Nice setup man👍
thanks, its probably going to be one of my most used combos
Great video!!!!!!
What this is rod bro?
Abu Garcia. Vigilante 2.0. 5’ 5” light
So John, on all your ultralight rigs you use mono?
oooh good question, got a video on that sort of coming up soon
@@CreekFishingAdventures Great. I need to get with the program on braid but am clueless about it.
I'm just wondering when you are going to do another catch and cook. They actually taste a little better in cooler weather
IdK. Maybe soon
Nice fish to start off. Awesome video!
Bass on that gill head was wild! Thanks for sharing!...I might have to add that rod n real to my arsenal
thanks, definitely a first for me
Everything was off about that one fish. Even being foul hooked
Hookset Hijinx yah I’m not sure what happened to that one
like the video and the reel.
I don’t think increasing your spool size to 2000 would be necessary for bass fishing. It handled that 3 pounder just fine!
true, just in case i want to upsize my line though
Creek Fishing Adventures if you wanna stay with mono/flouro. You could go braid and solve that👌
Nice video bro
What colors of panfish assassin do you recommend for creek fishing
mostly chartreuse
@@CreekFishingAdventures ok thanks
@@CreekFishingAdventures I use the electric chicken color bc it resembles a baby bluegil
Hey do you have fishbrain
@@CreekFishingAdventures do you have fishbrain?
Nice! Was that the mouth of a creek?
yah, since late december i have fished at small creeks about 20 times and only had 2 or 3 ok trips . i have been going to bigger water to find stuff. the creek fish really seem to shut down when it gets cold
Awesome Bass
So much fun!
