Nice video. I just saw that the Spinfisher VI 6500 is just about the same price as the Daiwa BG 6500. Which would you choose between those two reels? I would be fishing from the shore and piers in San Francisco Bay, NOT surf fishing getting drenched or even in a boat that much getting sprayed. Do you know what size and quality the bearings and gears are?
I've not used that model Diawa, so I can't really speak to it. But I can tell you we've put the Penn through its paces, and it has been very durable and still preforms great. I've used Penn for years and never had issues with them. Diawa makes some great reels but I'd go with the Penn.
Yeah, the handle upgrade on this reel is definitely worth the money and makes this reel just that much better. I dont understand why they don't put a top knotch handle on this top knotch reel. It doesn't make any sense. Thanks for watching!

It reminds me of Cobra helicopters.
Aesthetically robust and deadly..😅
What model or part number is that Gomexus handle? Looking for one for mine. Thanks.
This is the handle for this reel: amzn.to/45wINmv
The stock handle on these are so bad, the reel itself is amazing but definitely needs a handle upgrade.

@@BlueLineFishing yea especially since the cheaper Battle 3 reels have nicer round handles.
Love the stock handle myself - works for me the round handle looks good too
