Wanted to ask a question. Say you buy a new reel and turn it fast just to test it's smoothness. It is smooth but makes a soft winding sound only when you turn it fast.... Is that normal?

Fair assessment....and still get it, I am a Daiwa fan boy😂. I think they should definitely make servicing these reels more accessible to the home service man. Tools, mag lube and mag bearings. Magseal has been on the market long enough. Shot you an email as well
One of the best videos you've ever made. I thought it was fair. This is why I watch your videos. They teach me so much about reels. You definitely make the days I'm not able to fish on less boring. I actually bought a Bantam MGL thanks to you (found a brand new one for $199 in a tackle shop). Lovely reel for redfin perch crankbait and bladebait fishing I do.
I'm nowhere near saltwater, never had to worry about any of the things you talk about in your tear downs, reviews, and what not but I do love your explanations, the detail and depth, and overall fairness. It always enthralls me to the point where I will sit and watch almost 2hrs straight about reels that I have no need for or any intention of ever needing or buying. Great work as always!

I'll never own a spinning reel above a 3000 series, as a bass fisherman, but you're videos give so much information, I can't get enough. Just wish the frequency was more often.
Hey Scoob,thanks for the shout out about measuring the main gear. Great review as always
watching this elaborated review of the comparasion and the tear down made me decide so much better. Thank you so much for your time putting this out. I was in such dilemma and eager buying one just to get the experience of Monocoque feeling before I get the New Saltiga 2020. I guessed I will stick to my Daiwa BG 2016 and Penn Slammer 3 for now and save up for the new Saltiga.
love this channel. It's the AVE of fishing gear. The ASMR for the late night gear tinkerers of us. The throwaway gen will never be as good as us!
I am impressed! :) not by this BG MQ but by the video. Watched it completely. Timestamps can be really useful looking back one day. Really good comparison to similar reels. Great video and many thanks for your time and effort you put in to this! 👍👍
This was wonderful. Very thorough and complete. I wish there were more reviews like this. Shimano in particular uses marketing jargon and then explains it with more jargon. It's hard to know what is in the reel. I own a Spinnfisher V and a BG. You are spot on when talking about the feel of these two reels. I surf fish in Florida and stay out of the water. I learned a lot about how to clean the reels when I come home. I wasn't aware of the issue with roller bearing or bushing so I will open them and see how they are doing. There were lots of parts on the table I just wonder if you had any leftover?
Best analysis of any reel review I have seen on the net. Great job. A++.
I’ve never seen this much detail on a tear down video .... subscribed 👍👍👍
Thanks for the review👍all your videos are the best reviews for reels. You try to be as very unbiased as you can and I like that🤘
Good point about the line roller bearing BTW. . Bushings are proven in the line roller. The Stradic is well known for their line rolling bearing wearing out very quickly. Mine were done after 4 trips.
Aww yesss, you made my day close to 2 hrs more interesting. Thanks a ton fellow Jersey angler!
Always look forward to these tear downs. Thank you for your hard work!!! Vanford and battle 3 next please.

Great review in terms of sealing and smoothness of operation. Would like to see the difference in max drag between the BG and similar sized BG MQ. I get about 8 lbs at full spool with the BG tested on a calibrated brass scale and got owned by a jack crevalle this weekend. The reel was fine though after having half the line run out by multiple jacks and a couple 10 lb bonita. I had to thumb the spool to stop from being spooled a few times and broke the jacks off on purpose. What I like about the Diawa reels is they bottom out against metal and keep you from over flexing the spool against the drag. I'm either going to go up to the 4500 BG or maybe "upgrade" to the MQ if it puts out more drag. I can't see spending more for a Saragossa in that size reel and will reserve that for the 10000 size.
Very interesting video. Personally, since I fish exclusively in fresh water, I’m pretty confident that either the Fuego LT or Ballistic LT are just about perfect for me. Plenty of water resistance, good smooth drags, very light, more than enough strength and stiffness for anything I catch around here. Interesting video on the new BG MQ for sure, but not quite the reel for me, I think.
Great video and great info. Thanks for all the work you put into it. Your assessment was very fair. I do not see how Daiwa can justify the price they want for this reel.
I hooked a 4kg fish with a brand new $70.00 real which i purchased from my local tackle shop. The main gear failed and i lost the fish a couple of feet from the shore. That is why i watch your reviews cost i need to know i am not wasting my money when purchasing a new real. i have two Daiwa ballistics very happy with them. i can even service them myself cos of these vids. Thanks very much for this review keep them coming.

Just buy a Fin Nor Offshore and you know you have something, body all alu with all gear stainless steel, the 6,4 mm axle supported in 3 points, front middle and rear for real effort, no compromise as alu, coated alu or zinc, even the handle, there's no schiki miki reverse switch and no one way ball bearings but the solid clutch anti reverse. It is heavy but strong, built to hold any fish and to last forever, you can't have both, whether strenght and endurance or lightness, the lighter it is, the less substance/atoms in it... I just brought a Fin Nor Offshore 10500, when you hold it in your hand and hear its clicking while turning the spool you know that's the thing a man wants. An endurance test would be interesting, alu gear, coated even, vs brass and stainless steel gears, so those Daiwa and Shimano vs Fin Nor and other stainless steel and brass gear reels.

Use the drag and rod to pull line in then then pick up line as you slack the line. Any gear will fail if improperly used. Don't grind through it, especially with spinning reels.

In my experience even my cheap Daiwa Crossfire LT 3000 didn't have issues with 4kg fish, even though it costs 40€😂
Been running this reel for a year and had it torn down. Seal at handle is perfectly fine. Btw. All salt water kayak and beach surf fishing. 2500 is absolutely a perfectly weighted and powerful gem. Maybe a little high in price but Shimano has jacked their prices up big time. This new BG MQ is a Ms nice or I would say nicer than my Stradic FL. My new go to inshore saltwater reel. Like my Ballistic for inshore as well.
Most perfectly delivered review of reels on the face of the earth.

@@TackleAdvisors hey man! Totally understand the process on editing videos...im sure its tons of work to provide this great content! That crap happens...but from what you shown in this...so far I'm impressed on the style of this reel. I agree the spin off housing with that o-ring is a great way to block debris to travel that shaft which i give kudos for that design...that's where I feel the majority of sand and water actually get in...and that boot gasket needs to be more accurate when re screwing it...it's way off...for sure it'll break when reinstalling it...but in those comparisons...the Daiwa is a solid reel...i really like the design...and to tell you in reality for my style of fishing dealing with saltwater...it comes down to the upper shaft sealing where the rotor spinning bring in debris from the beaches or rain if it's a sandy area is what makes and breaks the reel of longevity...water protrusion is what really causes the majority of reel failures. But money wise...i wouldn't pay for neither spinfisher nor this reel...Shimano FL to me still for the best bang of the buck especially that x-protect...and you know...there's no reason you have to go there. With my 4000 FL caught a 42" Tarpon with zero flex, flying out of the water like 5 times fishing from a bridge...no problem at all. So I don't know...even the spinfisher doesn't convince me to get it. And man that reel is sooooo butter smooth! Why do you think it's sold out everywhere!? Which to me Daiwa should pay attention to the Shimano Stradic FL.
Awesome Scoob, was wondering what cleaning do you do to a reel that gets dunked in the salt? For the first time I took my reel apart using your BG breakdown video but was unsure of how to clean the parts if it’s dunked in saltwater (mineral spirits, corrosion X spray or clean water?) Also what reel grease do you recommend for salt and freshwater (if different) reels? Thanks as always for a great video.
Thank you for honesty and I look forward to Shimano Stradic SW 2020 review
Yeah! you were absolutely fair in your assessment 'and so its with all that being said' im more interested in the new Saragosa. Probably get the MQ when you undoubtedly post a screaming amazon deal on it, thanks as always
Great review man, I love how u threw in the diameters of the shaft and gear in comparison to the 4k bg!

@@TackleAdvisors I plan on getting a new cat-fish jigging/ shore jigging reel, and so far 6000 bg mq seems to fit the bill, i would love to see some tests from people on the water though, but looks a lot beefier then the regular bg i use in the 3000 size. What do you think, would it handle heavy 60g jigs + silicone in strong rivers?
I got the Certate LT4000 and passed on this BG MQ. Glad i did the certate is a hell of alot better. I lucked out and got it for $375 instead of $500
Damn I had to take a break after 57 minutes, this video is long but worth it, well done as usual, very informative
Thanks for that review I was curious about this reel but I am not convinced its a good investment based on your review.
Waiting for your battle 3 video lol, I did enjoy this one.
I don't think I can ever go back to the Penn's. I have had several battle models and they all corrode horribly on the body, and just this weekend, one of my 4000's stopped oscillating. Opened her up and the gear was disintegrated, no teeth. No signs of water, and was greased well. Just seems it crumbled whatever that material is made of. I have done several repairs to most of them. So far, no issues with the Spinfisher V's. Just watched the reviews of the BG BQ's and was nearing purchase until I saw the materials inside made of zinc, etc. Decision now to go ahead and pay the extra for the Shimano Stradic FL and eventually replace my bigger spinning reels with the Saragosa's. My son in law has these and they are so smooth in comparsion, it makes my Penn's feel like $10 POS. He has had several seasons fishing exactly same as me from our boat in Saltwater and has had zero issues, no corrosion and no servicing and they are flawless!
If I’m not going to be getting my reel dunked or splashed in water, would you recommend this or the spinfisher vi?
How about the cranking power? Is it significantly stronger than the BG albeit the resistance from the rubber seals?
Great video. Can you make a video about upgrading the roller with ball bearings for the 6000?
Can you just open the side plate and access the inner reel rather than starting from top down taking out the main shaft and pinion gears. Let's see if I just want to lube up the interior can I just take off the side plate
Thank you , another informative video. Just pick up spinfisher vi 5500 for 145. Off Amazon!
It is too late for me to return this and get a Saltist or a Gosa? WIth that being said......I have this brand new BG MQ 10K, which I bought a year ago hoping to catch some YFT on a party boat. That planned trip was cancelled many times and I am hoping to go the second week of February in 2022. Should I open the rear boot and handle and heavily grease to add water intrusion protection?
Could you do a saltist mq review like this, I just got a 6000 and I love it, but I would also like to get to know the insides a little bit better without having to learn real maintenance on the way
So between the BG MQ10000 and Saragosa SWA 10000, which one would you suggest?
the plastic washer I think is to keep the surface of the drag from wearing down an then allowing corrosion so the plastic washer kinda protects the metal I'm assuming tbh but think that makes the most sense but maybe its something else but my other reel doesn't have that an has small scratches on that top part of drag
En definitiva..merece la.pena comprar el BG MQ?...o sigo con el BG 3000 y el saltist LTD 4000?
Thanks for the breakdown! I've used a BG MQ 4000 fluke/tog fishing exclusively for a few seasons. It works perfectly for shore based bottom fishing but I never thought I'd be able to surf fish with it and glad I watched your video. I'm looking at a new 6500 for surf fishing and I'll consider your recommendations.

I don't see any issue. Been using all Japanese brands . Reels got sprayed by rough seas while boating. It worked fine. Just have a small WD40 on standby. But never use. Reels worked fine. Got BG 5000 for 45 years with very little maintenance. Bought a newer BG with double stopped. Only fished 5-10 kg fish on it. Just washed it after use. It will last for years Once I forgot to remove a fishing set on a boat for three days, the reel jammed. The boat is parking in the sea. Not moving. Dismantle the reel with lots of WD40, Presto ! It worked fine as before !
great stuff .. get your hands on the new stradic SW .. that would be cool
What size plier wrench were tou using in this video? Thanks bro
Give me suggestion budget reel compare daiwa BG & BG MQ which one is good Both salt water and sweet water use
The clear plastic washer on top of the drag stack is a cheap arsed heat shield like the white one on the Saltigas. Meant to prevent heat generated in the drag stack damaging the base of the drag knob which used to happen on the Z series Saltigas on big hard running fish.

@@mickdayday1152 Thanks man!!!! that was my fear...I called the daiwa rep on that. (no reply)...i was worried it was just a high temp plastic to act as a buffer instead of a heat sink...IF you saw the past video section about the saragossa sw I mentioned and showed a picture of a friends saltiga with a melted drag washer...and the saragosa sw has a metal pluger
hopefully someone is looking at the new comments but i got myself a bg mq 5000 and when im using it to fish, casting big poppers for example, the gears just start to mesh or somthing really badly and i can feel it as i reel the line in. Ive taken off the spool and reeled its so it definately not the line roller that every "expert" that ive asked keep thinking it is. Now, this only ever happens when its in use, when i get home, its smooth as butter again... needless to say i stop using it as soon as i start to feel the gears. Does anyone else experience this?
great review !! this bg MQ or saltist for shore jigging?
In your opinion Comparison with BG & BG MQ which reel is better in salt water
What, if any, are the advantages of zinc alloy in a gear? Why zinc?
Great information as always. Here’s my $0.02. Most freshwater fishermen don’t do a lot of maintenance, and for the most part, don’t have to and for a number of reasons this reel probably isn’t on their radar. Most saltwater fishermen buying this price point of reel want and possibly need to do some level of maintenance. One time use seals, specialty tooling, a million parts, etc. kill that for a lot of people. As you mentioned, the spinfisher and slammer iii are easy to maintain and get parts for. Daiwa may sell a ton of these, but at some point, people are going to get frustrated with the maintenance and repairs, especially at this price point.

I went into this thinking that this sealing was a response to people not being able to access daiwa magseal......and now it's the same damn thing..now you have to find a tool....40$ - 80$ is the price to expect...and often unavailble on ebay So it's pretty clear daiwa wants to grow their service end of the business....In my recent experiences with their service they're 0-4...and yeah..not everyone services their own gear....but a surprising amount would like to....and a 6pack goes a long way extending the good years of a reels life :)

Need your guy's opinion please... I have Saragosa 10000sw on Proteus and spheros 5000sw on a terez waxwing. Just bought the saltist 8000 for 160 bucks brand new. Gonna pair it with a Proteus, Terez, or Phenix Black Diamond and 100lb braid. I couldn't pass it up for that price. However after doing some more research I'm not too sure about this reel after watching many tear downs and reviews for the saltist. Also not a fan of the mag oil for maintenance. I am a Shimano guy for Spinning reels, but like Daiwa Lexa 300 and 400 paired with Terez's for my bait casting. (Bought the Lexa's before the smaller Tranx came out or I'd probably go that route) I plan on using the Saltist as a west coast tuna/pelagic setup as I do my Saragosa setup. Should I try to trade the reel for a Spheros 20000sw? Keep the Saltist? trade for something else? Thanks for the help.
What would you buy....new Saragosa SWA, Penn Slammer III or Daiwa BG MQ? All in similar size to a Daiwa BG 8000 to use 65 braid for big tuna, slammer Mahi or even large King Mackerel to use 2-3 days a week.

The Slammer!
Are you going to have a full break down of that VR50 you were using. I have one and have been using it for two years. Aside from line lay issues (returned and fixed). It has been a great little reel. Was super tight at first but it’s gotten noticeably smother with use.

yes I will
Thank you for all the work you put into these videos! I’m looking to replace by current BG vertical jigging setups with either mq’s or saragossa’s. Waterproofing aside.. do you think the large gear and strong shaft make it a BETTER reel than the Saragossa purely for vertical jigging? Or at least better for the money? Love pulling up these AJs in south Florida off wrecks. I don’t want to spend more money on Saragossa’s if it’s not even better for my application. Thanks again!

The gosa is better overall, buy once cry once that’s my saying I live by. Don’t cheap out
