I bought a Sougayilang reel when I first got into fishing a couple years ago (not knowing better). It was normally 40$, marked down to $13 (insanely low). Not going to lie, it has performed very well for me for 2 years, fishing with it about once a week - it still performs well. Now that I am way more into fishing and know better, I own Shimanos and Daiwas lol, but I never hated my Sougayilang or felt like it was junk. I still have it on my cheap ugly stik gx2 medium light and it holds up well enough, even with a 5 lb bass on the line.

They are actually not bad reels. Some of them are better than others. This one he is destroying is the one everyone wants to mess with. I have 2 of the models with the honeycomb spools. (Xy1000 I believe)I'm selling some tackle today to friends who wannaget into fishing . My Sougayilang and Kastking rods/reels are not going anywhere. I know for a fact I have a Sougayilang BFS rod that worth way more than I paid. I don't think shimano or Diawa makes anything like it. I have a Kastking Perigee ultralight rod that should be here tomorrow. I'm sure it will be nice. 90% of everything fishing is made in China. Shimano and Daiwa has a few select things made in Japan. It's all a matter of quality control.

I know it’s not a question about this reel but do you have any megabass reels lauda 58r if you do what do you think about them are the same thing as the Daiwa air custom stream

Hey man and thanks for all the informative videos in the past. I've to questions and hope u have an answer. 1) Do u mark the gears -pinion to maingear. (eccentric gear) before open them ? I've had some troubles with opening spinning reels which were fished 3-4 Years without maintenance, i lubricated them, assembled them but the they feel really "geary". Any advice/experience? 2) I've seen ur video polishing bc's. I liked it and i want to try it on my spinner. Any experience with that? Thanks for helping, i've learned a lot from you the past few years. Regards Justus

I've been watching your teardowns for some time now. It is great to actually see what is behind all the hype that reel manufacturers spin. Pun intended. I've got one question. We keep hearing about hydrophobic coatings on reel parts. I have lots of spray bottles of water repellant for my raincoats etc. Will this help to spray a reel with this stuff? Keep up the good work.

Do you troubleshoot or repair? I think I've talk to you on FB a few times. Reel in question is a Shimano Calcutta Conquest 51s jdm. Aftermarket spool ticks on retrieve only with load.please let me know don't really want to sell it.

Hi bro can you make a review for shimano vanford c3000hg

Magnesium Alloy does in fact become that glowing, lava like material your speaking of. I can't speak about 100% magnesium but the alloy mixture that asphalt rake heads are made out of behave like nothing I've experienced before when they finally ignite. It looks bright like an arc welder, flows like lava & is extremely difficult to cool off & extinguish. My 1st day working on a paving crew I was asked to use propane jet torch to clean the tools off. I tossed them into a wheel barrow & used jet torch (which is as cool the name suggest) to heat them up to the point the asphalt would become soft enough to scrape off. Being the forward thinker I was at 19, I wanted to skip the scraping part & burn it off. Well when those rake heads ignited, I knew it was problem when the molten magnesium melted through the wheel barrow so like an idiot I grabbed the only liquid that I had that was already in a bucket (diesel fuel) made the problem 10x's worse. 20 yrs later working for the same company I have yet to see a rookie that possesses my forward thinking ability like I had...

I've got a idea for a video for you. I would really be interested in seeing a breakdown of where KastKing, Picifun, 13 Concept, Lew's and for that matter pretty much all fishing reels are manufactured. I've been Googling and it appears that most of them are manufactured by companies in Korea or China. 13 Concepts is claiming that they are manufactured in Clearwater Florida which I highly doubt. If you can do like break down for each brand where it comes from and who manufactures it that would be very interesting in my opinion, you may have already done it but I don't know. I know that there are companies like Doyo, Yonh Huang, Dawon, Kaito making most of the reels but I would like to have some definitive input. Most of my baitcasters are Shimano and my spinning reels are Daiwa because I know they make their own stuff! 😁👌

I have 4 Pflueger Supreme XT's. My less expensive Diawa's are better. I have a few Presidents and one Templar. I like the Templar better than the Presidents. I like all my Pfluegers, but after using Daiwa, it's clear to me they make a better reel even at lower price points. Scheels branded Daiwa reels are even a better value for the money. I haven't really been able to use it a lot, but the Ryobi Aotaka XP appears excellent and has a screw in handle. I bought them on sale for $37 which is a ridiculous value. Reminds me of my Exceler which in imo is noticeably better than the Presidents.

Vanford 5000 review in the near future?

i have several kastking reels and several shimano. From both companies top reels to their low ends. and Kasking is the smoothest of them in both realms. come out from amazon out of the box with much higher grade drag systems. this brand you review here i have as well. really smooth as well. drag system isnt much but same oil felt drag washers shimanos $100 reels offer. frames maybe sturdier but or something but for the money not that much difference. Especially in comparing shimano and to kastking!! kastking i will vouge for is legit, especially for the money. shimano gears are sturdier i assume with the hagane gears definitely, but reel performance and smoothness out of the box with way more advance drag systems than shimano and the like... kastking is a much better value all and all. You get same quality performance out of $50 kastking if not more, then a $100 shimano at least. put a KK sharky III up to a shimano nasci....
