      oh and fun fact i know for a fact that that 1bb is on the pinion gear right where you have that slop they are bushings buddy u shure havent used old gear much or paid attention to its specs lol 1bb was common lol and there was some good reels that only had 1bb

    • @Jp69240

      22:22 also fun fact imo casting is mainly on a spinning combo how flexible and thin your line is (and fullness) combined with how well it lays it on the spool and spool shims are your friend with that so im not too surprised but gota say that line must be decent i like vicious panfish line bc its so thin pretty durable not insane but holds and its thin also on baitcasters i used to have tons of break off issues on casts with braid and fluro leaders i switched to mono on them and dont got the issue of snap offs also i have a fishing reel an abu 5500 that has no bb and when used braid like 30lb test it would cast down into my very thin backing so a good like 250-280 yards it took almost a full spool of spiderwire 300 yards it casted and looked like accurate distance too so ball bearings dont mater with good bushings i aint joken its INSANE

      fr though. Wackiest I've ever had is a ~12lb cat off a jerkbait, which isn't common but it happens (after all, most fish are going to strike if a bait is in front of it, so I'm assuming I just got lucky on the placement and put it so close it hit it off instinct?) but still my own little story.

    My son and I filmed an "Ollie's Haul" video at home. It was fishing gear. Lots of Googan baits In that haul. No rods or reels that haul. We did not even film in the store, just at home. Our tiktok was copy right strikes and taken down. When I appealed, they put the video back with no sound. That means no one watches which means no monetization. So either Ollie's or Googan had my video taken down.

    I think one of the worst side effects of the AYO/Norm fallout is the lack of silly fun videos. Like build your own boat challenges or lures made from whatever you can find type videos. I like the bargain videos don’t get me wrong, but I love the wild ones where you make stuff and compete against other guys to try and catch a fish (or just to stay dry lol)

  • @wyrmfireno1
    @wyrmfireno1 Місяць тому

    Delta is their upper-mid range reel, so think more like Daiwa Tatula. The Omega is the higher end one with quick swap spools and higher weighted line, definitely more Curado territory. ~$30 is a steal, those are usually around $50-60+. The Bullet is the best baitcaster comparison with its quicker retrieval ratio, and the newer versions can take braid. Sure wish you had landed that carp, that was a beast for that rod. The reel could go for maybe a little bigger if you upgrade the line. I never use that factory line, especially at an Ollie's style store as you have no idea how old it is and what abuse it has suffered. 10lb is a good rule for most spincast reels unless it says different (Zebco "micro" 4-6lb, "max" 20lb, "888" 25-30lb, all mono style)
