The only gripe I have with this reel is the weight, but that goes with the size of the reel ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxM68VkfsQhHaabDce1IwOCXuvumcpbZ_k . I brought this salmon fishing up in Oswego, NY. I coupled it with a Cabela's Whuppin Stick. I had no problem pulling in a 14lb salmon. I will probably use this for surf fishing this summer and downgrade to a 3500 series Battle II next salmon season to save my wrists. All of the operations are butter smooth and the bail is nice and thick and has a solid flip to it. Everything about this reel is sturdy and strong. The drag system held up to the salmon and was also super smooth. I did use a scale to set the drag properly before going out to the river and this worked out tremendously. A bunch of other guys on the river would hook up and snap almost immediately. Just because you have a good drag system doesn't do anything if you don't set it correctly.
You have helped me a lot and thanks for everything you do trying to order some jigs but when ya only got 10 bucks lol kinda hard but keep up the awesome work my mqn
Thank you for sharing this video. I never fished for Crappie but plan to do so in the Blackwater river in NW Florida. I would like to know what is the model of the fish finder you were using, it seem to show a lot of detail and I also like the live scope. I
Late here, but what model of Piscifun Viper X Reel are you using on your dock rod? I'm trying to get an ideal of what to use on a future crappie rod build. Thanks!
Enjoy the video, just a side question do know if there’s a minimum #’s of rod & reels per person on the coosa (Alabama) for long line trolling.? I’ve searched everywhere on the web but no luck. Thanks again for all your fishing videos.
@@FloppingCrappie thanks found that there is a 3 rod limit rule per person on the coosa. I did happen to order me the viper x 500 for pier shooting but what would you suggest for the best rod model & size?
Nice. I've been hitting P4 and the chew is on there also. Going to have to give the Saint another try. Who's the best guide for that part of the river? Looks like you're between Excel and the Catfish narrows but I know Prescott can be good too. Keep'em coming, nice to see our area get some fishing respect.
I use a double jig rig all the time with a bobber tie a loop knot with a long tag line put the jigs about 8 inches away it will save you a lot of tangles Bobbers Down 🎣

I don't know the rod limit, UT I would call the fish and game agency. They should be able to answer that question.

What pool line in reel are you using
6lb mono or 10lb braid depending on the rig.
Will these rigs work good in the summer to
They will work during the summer, the only one I wouldn't use as often is the drop shot during the summer months

Thank you for the discount code. I just purchased the Viper 1000.
I'm just learning to crappie fish. But out of curiosity why do you throw the ones over 12 inches back?
A lot of people put the big ones back so their genes are available for the future. Personally I think smaller fish taste better. Tight lines!

Bonehead tackle makes stump bug baits.
Yes, you can. It's not a rig most people would use, but it could work. I may have to make a video on this.🤔

I keep everything 10 inches and above no such thing as too big of a crappie to keep unless it's potential lake record
What kind and size line are you using?
I have the entire setup for each rig listed in the video description
It wouldn't let me do anything
