Awesomeness!
I have also made similar test with 1-3 grams weight on grass measure with tape and with many more casts. The two reels are equal at 3 grams but the Hyper Micro wins with 1-2 meters at 1 gram. I also measured how much line is flowing out of the reels. Here I noticed that the Alderbaran uses 2-3 meters more line for the same distance as the Hyper Micro. This indicates that one should be careful to measure distance with a line counter. The reason for the Alderbaran is using more line is probably due to the heavier spool in combination with more free spinning bearings.
I have also tested The Daiwa Alphas Air TW and Alderbaran upgraded with Avail spool (4,5 grams) and ceramic bearings. The results for 1 grams:
1. Daiwa Alphas Air TW: 18-19 meters - Winner
2. Fishband Hyper Micro: 0.5-1 meter shorter than Alphas Air
3. Alderbaran Avail spool and ceramic bearings: 0.5-1 meter shorter Alphas Air
4. Alderbaran stock 2-3 meter shorter than Alphas Air
For 3 grams they are pretty much equal. I think at higher weights the Alderbaran stock will win and Alphas Air will come last (at 5-15 grams the Metanium 2020 is the king)
It should be noted that the bearings of the Hyper Micro are flushed and oiled with BFS oil from Shimano. This should be done for all Chinese reels.
this why I said this is just a preliminary test.
@@THEREELTEST yes, looking forward to the Olympic
Great reel test! I have watched it several times to understand what I may be lacking in wisdom and ability at BFS I'm still at that point where I'm thinking of getting rid of all of my BFS reels and just plunking the money down for the Aldebaran BFS or the SLX BFS since they have the best braking systems out of all the reels that I have seen you test and I've watched a lot of your videos. Decision making time before my 30-day return policy is up with my Amazon purchased gear.
I will say though that I did luck out finally and get a good rod that allowed me to cast on my Zephyr about a hundred feet last night, that's kind of a new record. That was with 2.8 g of weight by the way.
Thank you once again for the hard work you do really appreciate the videos 😁 God bless you and aloha T
Appreciate the Dan Kung lead, Price $122
Thanks for another great video.I base most my BFS purchases off the info you and a few other guys put out. You get a sec check out the black knight 2 on aliexpres. I thought it was fake but I ordered it and got it in. The specs are right on. My brakes seem a little weak but I still have no problem casting 1/64 trout/pan fish magnet. Thanks again for all your videos.
so the spool is 6.9 grams with the bearing?
I can't remember if I weighed the spool now or not. It's not as wide as the purple pw100 spool. The overall weight of the black knight 2 was lighter than the pw100 but I think it was just by a couple grams. The black knight casts the 1/64 trout magnet smoother and farther than the pw100. I don't have to adjust my casting placement, I think I do with the pw100,but not much.I've got them both on the ace hawk cu double. The only thing I'm not crazy about on the knight is the almost flat reel knobs. I would say the spool is 6.9 with the bearing but I wouldn't swear to it.
Just weighed the spool, but my scale isn't super exact. They black knight 2 and the pw 100 are spooled with the same line and completely filled. The knight was 8g and the pw100 was 10g. The knights overall weight is 139 and the pw is 142 on my scale. My scale doesn't do 10ths on grams, sorry.
Mine just came in today, after ordering during this videos premiere. Also have some roro hybrid ceramic BBs to go with it as well. Will be using this as a backup to my alphas air tw!
sorry , I meant what size of roro ceramic bearing did you order for this Clamber reel?
That drag clicker had me cracking up!!! Starting turning the handle and it was like an earthquake hit! That level wind was absolutely dancing. Wonder what design they use...
Very interesting video! Truly enjoyable to watch. I'm not always a big supporter of upgrading bearings but on the Clamber I noticed substantial casting distance gained,
once I did upgrade to a micro set.
What size bearings does the Clamber have?
good to know, I was disappointed at the distances considering the spool weight, Im having some micro ceramics sent and we will run this test again
need help deciding on which reel to buy between daiwa zillion 2121 or new scorpion dc jdm, which is better lall-round reel which is better for least amount of backlash. I bass fish and walleye fish
both nice reels, zillion (JDM version) is about 1.5 oz lighter than the Scorpion. Other than that, Scorpion DC all day. Its just more special in my opinion, and cheaper too.
As always great vid. Can't wait to see what it does w/ the hybrid bb.
I was casting a 1/16oz jerkbait with my shimano curado bfs and i was only able to get 64 feet. My rod was a $5 Zebco Hotcast so maybe that had something to do with it? Great video, keep them coming!
I saw your video, thats pretty good considering you are new to BFS and your rod is a budget glass rod. But that is about what you can expect from a BFS reel with the spool weight around 8.5-9 grams. Lighter spooled reels will get you a few more feet. I think you will get a little better results once you get your new BFS rod
Hotcast is a cool little rod 😎 I found a glass slipper for the zephyr reel casting 30+Yds with 2.8gms 4lb mono Trilene XL the Amazon rod is a Sougayilang model PAE602UL its fairly inexpensive and works great for BFS, I have tried and sent back four other rods looking for the right rod for my BFS reel. Food for thought and I'm going to keep my hot cast because it was only $5 😎 I will put a inexpensive reel on it and use it as my beater combo.
Aloha
Check out the sea knight red rox
Black night brave fearless bfs reel may be also good choice because it comes with hybrid ceramic japanese bearings and max drag 6 kg and also have wide conical line guide which is plus point than clamber hyper micro.
0:10 based, God bless you bro.
So the cost of the Clamber plus the cost of upgraded bearings is about what I paid for the Curado BFS.
no need for upgrading the bearings. It cast better than the Alderbaran and Curado BFS already according to my test. Upgrading the bearings will make it cast like Alphas Air TW I think. Alphas Air TW is the champ and Curado BFS is a joke:)
@@channguyen3349 Well I guess I will have to disagree
@@csmith0921 have you tested all reels side by side with tape? The Curado cast like a Fishband PW100+ and Kastking Zephyr at 60-70$. Shimano budget reel is joke to their fans.
@@channguyen3349 yes, in fact I have. I own a PW100 and a GH100 as well as a Zepher. The Curado is far and away my favorite. Much better quality, better brakes and casts the lures I throw with pinpoint accuracy and plenty of distance. I don't think the price is our of line with what they bring to the table, in fact I own two of them.
@@csmith0921 I am not talking about quality and feel which is a matter of taste and preference. I am talking about casting distance as in this video. What is plenty of distance? Honestly have you ever done any test and measurements? If so you would have listed the distances and weights already.
Isn't there a newer version of the Aldebaran ? The MGL 50???
in Japan there are 2 Aldebarans, the MGL and the BFS. They are both separate reels being sold side by side
Black knight II has 6.9 grams spoll with bearing and the bearing was a seramic hybrid bearing
I bought the LINGL
@@THEREELTEST i was too 😁
As i have tasted both reels I prefer Aldebaran. It can not be compared for many reasons. but if i had limited budget, i would buy Clamber.
what's is your thoughts and opinions on the new Daiwa Alphas Air TW PE Special?
my thoughts are... IM GETTING ONE! lol
There is too big of a variable in these test that won’t let them hold water for me.......cause you ain’t cleaned bearings, and you don’t cast the same with every cast. The wind can pick up in a millisecond and die down that quick too. So basically having a more confident cast with one and not another makes these tests inconclusive
Im not worried about it
@@THEREELTEST it’s just my anal retentiveness.
Can't go wrong with Shimano
Have you tried cleaning the bearings on the hyper micro?
No but Im getting some micro ceramic hybrids sent to me
Ur videos are so epic!
hello could you tell me which of these zephyr cast! and clamber! advise me you? For long throws bfs thank you in advance for your cordial answers
Aldebaran bfs vs conquest bfs plz.
Just gonna be real I feel like most viewers would enjoy your videos a lot more without the background music
they arent the ones putting the time, money, and effort into making the vids
@@THEREELTEST then why are you making the videos if not for the viewers because you don’t seem to care if they like them
great video, thanx! I have both of these reels, so am very excited to see your upcoming tests! one thought, i hear a lot about that ball bearings on Chinese reels often have too much greese from the factory. do not know what it is like with the Clambern as I have not disassembled mine yet, but maybe it would be an advantage if you cleaned and oiled with bfs oil?
perhaps, but that would be unfair to the Aldebaran, and most people will not bother cleaning bearings straight out of the box.
@@THEREELTEST yes, that's a good point! 👍🏻
I bought an Aldebaran 50 to cast 4g lures, it’s awesome. But then I found out about the BFS. I want one so bad, but like you said it’s 5 years old, I know if I buy one the new model will come out the next day.
they have spools at Hedgehog Studios for the Aldebaran 50. I have the Yumeya factory spool and it outcasts the Aldebaran BFS by a few feet in field testing.
@@THEREELTEST wow that’s very impressive that just a spool upgrade can make such a difference. I would have thought without the magnetic brakes you’re kind of chasing your tail
Is there any chance that the difference in spool weights can be attributed to a difference in scales accuracy?
the scale is accurate
What rod set up did you pair it with?
is the drag for clamber hyper micro smooth or it jerking by pulling the mainline?
both are still jerky and rough but the 2nd reel I got was a little better than the 1st
Do you ever have problems with 4lb test line getting caught between the chassis and spool? It’s so annoying, almost worse than backlashes
not with these 2 particular reels
With the price of aldebaran i can buy reel rod lure Line, an entyre bfs kit for 10ft of differrnce
Will you do a casting battle between the curado bfs and the aldebaran bfs ? I have a curado bfs and I would like to know if it's worth the price to upgrade to an aldebaran bfs .... ( and please excuse me if my english is not perfect, I am french )
I will during the winter, but you are looking at probably less than 10 ft difference in casting distance with 1/8th and 1/16th oz
@@THEREELTEST OK , thank you, I've just bought a Curado BFS, it's my first BFS, and I love that, so maybe later I will upgrade to an Aldebaran or a Calcutta.
Dakung fishing? Yea, there prob doing more data minning that TicTok
What line did you use?
4lb mono
Do you know this is Chinese reel is 120$ it is better to spend it extra 40$ and get Curado bfs reel
A Shimano BFS is far superior to this overly hyped reel. The resale value of the Chinese reel is very low (probably close to zero) while a Shimano will be very good.
spend it extra 40$ for sure
Curado bfs is 20 grams heavier than Clamber Micro, they are quite different reels.
@@FocusAndEnjoyCreekFishing the real differens will be after a year of using^)
@@chegack4483 no need waiting one year, just one minute as Clamber is 20 gram lighter and specialize in BFS fishing rather than a common ultra-light fishing reel.
Could you try this with upgraded bearings? I think better bearings could aid the clamber
At the end of the video he said he will be doing this.
This guy is a sales man not a reviewer.
You mad kid? lol
@@THEREELTEST no just stating facts
so basically you are mad lol
Dude that scale is not capable of an accurate weight, throw a nickel on it first
its accurate
Nope my Calcutta conquest bfs is better. None of these bfs even compare.
I mean.. its three times the price so I'd hope it perform a bit better. 🤷♂️
@@andersriksson100 everything. Literally everything. These have more drag but as far as the rest goes.
Never buy a fishing reel made in China over 40 dollars, any type reels.
How about NOT buying any reel made in China!
@@rapalaman6681 well that means you can cross out the majority of Lews, Quantum, and even Abu Garcia
Sorry but that Clamber looks like a piece of junk, I wouldn't even give it a second thought. Looks like a toy compared to that Shimano, better to spend more and get the latest Shimano reels.
you do realize there are some people on a tight budget right? especially due to the pandemic and people losing their jobs.
