    Love the 360 on the beginning of the video ! The quality of the video is prime !
    the silent tune spring loaded is heavier , the color looks like the new bantam rod, love the idea of mgl3 spool , the weight surprised me my call was 7.3 g between you and me the mgl spool is the best ! hope the break is strong enough!

    I like the way this reel looks. The top profile reminds me a lot of the 2016 Metanium MGL. I’m most excited for the new Bantam this year, I keep growing to love my old one more and more each time I use it. It is fantastic on a Destroyer Madbull throwing all sorts of moving baits

This guy, the reel test guy replied to me saying I won the reel but had to pay for shipping and handling, the thing is he ended up scamming me for over $200. I really respected the owner of this Reel Test account but after what he did to me I have nothing but anger and disappointment for this guy. He scammed me big time.

    So I am right handed. Fairly ambidextrous and always wanted to try a left handed setup. I crank my spinning reel with my left handed. Also I like that you post scripture up at the front of your videos. Thank you.

    • @InfinityFishing
      @InfinityFishing 2 роки тому +1

      Being a right handed it is actually easier to go baitcasting the same way with left handle as in spinning but in USA pros mostly prefer to go with right handle.
      It is a personal choice but being a saltwater angler and I do lots of movement with the rod I need to hold my rod with right hand just like spinning
      It feels more convenient actually because I can’t do jerking or vertical jigging with my weaker arm.
      And left hand reels seem to be on sale quite often I can’t complain

    • @jgreene70
      @jgreene70 2 роки тому

    Agreed. Looks like the old Model is much2 more prettier and palm friendly. Shimano really can save more weight by reducing the star drag point from 6 to 5, because its easier to remove the spool tension cap on 5 point stardrag that way.

    Been tempted to get into BFS fishing ever since I started watching your videos. So far this is looking like a dream of a reel. I'll have to give shimano a try as my past baitcasters have been daiwas. Looking forward to the casting video for this reel. As a right-handed person I prefer to use left handed baitcaster reels. Less changing of hands. Sometimes its hard to find left hand reels in stores. I have a friend who feels the same. Thanks for the videos I appreciate you sharing your knowledge and sharing the biblical verses on each of them.
