Just want to say thank you man for making these videos! For people like me doing tons of research and on the fence of buying helps alot!! looking forward for more vids champ
@@TheGun311 absolutely. I appreciate it man. I actually started doing the videos because I got tired of the every video I found being filled with nothing but " specifications " and " science talk " vs just straight to the point and from an everyday anglers point of view. Definitely appreciate it and hopefully helps others in the future as well.
@@oldonions1 Absolutely Love it !!!! In fact I actually just bought a 3rd one for the collection. And I get them either from Japan or form my local shop.
I'm torn between that and the vanquish. In all day fishing situations making a million casts, which one would you rather have in your hand??. Is the weight difference and performance noticeable?
@@oldonions1 all day fishing with structure id definitely go Stella. All day fishing open water or lower tides away from structure vanquish. Comparing the 2 in 3000 size I believe the Stella is 7.6 or 7.8 and the vanquish is 6.5 or 6.7 Stella only about a oz and change heavier then the vanquish. Stella is a core solid reel vanquish is the ci4 reel
@@vinhha6073 in the states they retail $799.99+ tax but I buy mine straight from Japan. About $500 per reel. I personally use to use $200 combos ( $100 reels and $100 rods ) and loved them. But I started going up in the reels and it turned into an addiction 😂. Can use reels below $200 anymore 😂
Oh you didn't. I am wrestling with the idea to get one. I've got the TP 24 in 4000 and C3000 size. Ever since I bought them I was wondering if a reel can get any better than this. It will be interesting to see what you think once you fish with the Stella. Basically, is Stella a much better reel compared to the TP in order to justify splashing £600 on it.
Honestly like I stated in the video it's very hard to tell them apart. Blind folded I bet no one would be able to tell them apart. The one thing I do like on the Stella is the handle knob. Something about this knob just feels so right in the hand
@@artificialslinger9730 I was going to get the Stella in May but last moment I decided to get a new rod instead, the 22 Exsense Infinity 9ft 5-32g ml. I went fishing with it last week and it literally blew me away. So damn effortless to cast, super sensitive. I can't stop stroking it 🤣
Thanks for honest and useful info, subbed 😊

So what are your impressions now after hooking a few and where did you get it?
I'm having trouble finding the 3,000 model I'm in Florida too

Nice ! 👍
Does TP fe c3000xg can fit 2500/2500s separate spool?
It should. The 2500 and 3000 share same body size just one has a shallower spool ( 2500s )
Dang you rich 😂 bro.. $999 reel.. every one love to own.. not me I’m poor .. 😂

@@Jack-tn8im yeah I got a Shimano casting rod can't remember the name of it and it impressed the crap out of me. I use it for my chatter bait rod
