Great work guys 👍

No spinning stuff. I like 5500 or 6500 penn slammer or battle spinning setups for flyline because you can cast farther and the baitfish isn't pulling the whole spool of line to swim. You have to have some muscles for spinning setups and can't lean the rod on the rail, but I prefer it for sure.

You need to try out the daiwa lineup Certate sw , Caldia SW , or BG SW the size 10,000- 18000 are about the size of the 8500 slammer , so lighter and the reels feel smoother on the load

I used my Saragosa 25K last weekend out of Point Loma and we scored 76 YFT. Spinning definitely had the advantage of casting further, but the torque/drag might be a disadvantage when compared to two-speeds.

Forget the spinning stuff, no GOMEXUS REELS??

They picked the 4 biggest brands that are found in tackle shops and have good support. Gomexus is still kind of an off brand / no name and is not found in many tackle shops.

Braid floats. You can have braid as a backing with several yards of mono with like four feet of floro as your leader. The difference is that your bait will typically swim deeper.

See you again next month 🎣 . Thanks for the decent trip capt and crews plus good foods 🎉

Thank you! So glad you like them!

Great duo. Lots of good information. Hope someone will benefit .

Great info, gonna try circle hooks next trip

I second the Shimano Torium series reels. They are excellent for the price & cast very well. l have caught lots of yellowtail & school size bluefin tuna with zero issues. Regular maintenance & freshwater washdowns after use keep my Shimano's going strong.

seeker tac80 with a trinidad 16 - cast 5-10 feet past everyone and get bit way more. not a cheap setup but worth it. best 25/30lb setup imo. 40lb braid to 25ft of fluoro with an FG knot as connection.

No Avet, I think it would be a good idea if y’all included the SX raptor, and the MLX raptor.

Great video! Do you think you could make a video talking about Fly line Gear and Setups for bigger grade fish?

What star drag reels would you recommend for left-handed night jigging? or what reel would be suitable for casting that is also left-handed?

Accurate tern2 all sizes come in lefty I feel it's a step up from a torium. Toriums come in a 16,20, and 30 size. Really, it's the same size spool, just wider. I love my daiwa lexa HD 401 holds 250 yards of 65# maxcuatro

Doesn't Avet sell MC models of their level drag reels?

Tough to beat the Avet JX 6/3 on a Shimano trevala or Phenix rail rod

@@bojacksonsuperturtle7411 yeah for fish up to like 40lbs. You gotta understand that the big fish gear is expensive because it's designed to handle the big ones. My biggest I got on a kite rod with a talica 25. But I've slayed bluefin with a penn senator 4/0 and a glass baitstick back in the early 2000s. Don't read too much into it. Make sure your knots are on point.

Cool

I notice you guys don't seem to recommend Phenix rods, are you guys not fans?

FTH25N, TOR16, TRIN16 are all the same weight [19 oz.]

Is 300 yards of line enough for a 25lb fly line setup?

Yep!

👍👍👍👌👌

I never allow the bait to pull line off my reel, I feed line to bait as it swims away from the boat, that will give bait a better natural presentation

There’s a lot of people fishing braid on sport boats that should be using mono

That was a $1,500 boat owned rod the guy tossed on the deck. If I were the boat owner, I wouldn't allow that guy back on my boat again.

I mean if ur gonna recommend reels that are up to the $500 price range might as well show the quality stuff. I mean if ur gonna drop more than $300+ on a reel you need to do ur homework n make sure ur making a good purchase. Show em the Avets, and Accurates. Maxel reels. Why not Gomexus? Their up with ANY of these brands in quality and for under $300.

Good stuff guys….. sorry to say, but I don’t consider any of these reels as “starter reels”. Of course you can go top tier with any manufacturer, but there are many “starter reels” that you don’t and probably should not promote or carry. I only say this so that folks that are new do not feel they have to spend top tier money to get a good reel.

Man, if I got a dollar everytime some guy on the sportboats told me I couldn't cast further because of a levelwind. I'd have a whole rental rod rack ready to go😂

Who's got the gold card? $$$$

Komodo!!!

Go mono to fluro and leave the braid off. Mono has less drag than braid for the fish to swim down
