Cape cod canal testing out a Van Staal x2 200 with a ODM 11’ Evolution 2-8 and

Van Staal x2 200 pair with a ODM Evolution 11 foot custom. Testing out the reel. Feels really slow for the canal but perfect to work lures slow. Thanks to my buddy ‪@nightshiftfishing‬ for the camera credits. Go check him out.

    Good luck with your new setup! Looking forward to your opinions after casting a variety of lures and landing a bunch of fish on it.

    @@oskee007striperlife glad I found your video, was between the vsx or the vsx2… the longer handle on the 2 creates a slower retrieve. Fishing mostly inlets I’m going to go with a 250vsx if I can find one…

    Yea the reel is bad ass. Love it just a little slow compared to the x2 300 I have. But perfect for working the lures slow. But yes the evolution is only for topwater not for jigging. The jigster is the way to go for jigging.

    Haha funny you say that. The vsx2 200 reel doesn’t suck it’s a bad ass reel but definitely not for the canal it’s for the surf. It’s a slow reel for the canal. I just switched back to my daiwa Saltiga 14,000 and yes way better reel for the canal. Now the vs2 300 I have is a bad ass reel for the canal. Very strong and fast retrieve I own them reels and all great reels for different application
