  • Abu Garcia Max STX 20 spinning reel test Vivi E bike Fishing Adventure. Will this replacement model from Garcia be any good? Will it be worthless like my first Garcia Max X reel I tried and it was so bad I ended up smashing it with a hammer! yes I have the video of me smashing it... I hope you enjoy this video adventure it was fun.

    I like the colors of that reel hope it works better than the X. That shot of you riding your bike through town was super cool I enjoyed that.

      Cool it's a nice reel, I only had to re grease mine because when I was fishing with it after a while it started to bind when cranking but after I greased it it's been running perfect ever since.

    You got the upgrade with that one. I got the ABU Garcia MAX STX size 40 medium heavy rod fast and it is two piece combo nice and small package for waking Banks for punching though grass. Just learn how to bass fishing 🎣 my son got me into it. Different than trout fishing for shore one thing is to damn hot on bass lakes. I'm us to being in high Desert mountain northern N.M. my son go south to get Bass fishing and catfish.

    Generally when reels spool line in a cone shape to the front or back it is because of a faulty or missing washer.

      Something was definitely wrong with the max x for sure a faulty run of them maybe? The thumb that's to help with the pain I got in my thumb just one of the things I tried out. Thanks for watching.

  • @luigiprovencher
    @luigiprovencher Рік тому +1

    You still put too much line on there. There is a maximum and you only need enough for whatever your maximum casting ability is plus a little extra maybe for tangles and snares but the less line you have on there the less likely you are going to have any tangles. Finer line is going to tangle easier too. I always like to use the maximum line lb test for that particular real for that reason and if you catch a big fish you don't want it breaking the line anyway. Heavier line will tangle easier too especially if your real isn't capable of handling it.

    • @PHFishingBiking
      @PHFishingBiking  Рік тому +1

      Hi I know I have it perfect there is a angled edge on the rear and front of the spool that is the max you supposed to spool it up to. I always like to fill to max level and if it gets tangled a bit and you need to cut the line then you end up with the perfect amount of line for better casting distance...Of course with a shimano and Daiwa reels they manage the line much better than these garcia reels and have much less tangles. Thanks for looking.

I would suggest a daiwa or shimano reel they are the best ones you can get I never had any of my daiwa or shimano reels break down like these garcia reels.
