I just tested a bad ass budget bfs reel today to go along with this rod.... stay tuned!
Hi,
If this reel are the same New model i'll find on Ali..it's a really interesting reel on paper...
Do you're reel have a new system braking for spool we never see on other Ali bfs reel? Spool weigt 9.2 gr and is shaft are not long? About 55 dollars ?
I have command this reel to make review on FB page for French peoples...
I think this reel are new on Ali, cause i never see it before.
I will make battle with the XF 51, the Steed 51 white model and old version of Scorpion 1001 (Avail bfs spool+ micro bfs bearings find on Ali). Will see if good or not.
Good test and pass a good day. (and sorry for this bad english...i'm french 😁)
G' Lures just wait brother, Ill upload the videos on the reel this week
waiting for it......⏲
Hey, can you put a link were to buy this rod...i cant seem to find it on ali...cheers
Ok bro...i will see if it the same reel... 😉
Excellent information on bait fineness rods. Buying a branded model is the only way to find out how less costly rods and reels compare to premium models. The only advantages premium rods and reels provide are warrantees. Most premium rods and reels with lifetime replacement warrantees cost $300 to $800 dollars. The return cost of shipping and the deductible can be $100 dollars alone. If it is determined you damaged the rod or reel from abuse they will repair it for a tidy fee. When you think about it this way, owning the best is less important. The Stream Angler rod’s reel seat has an exposed blank for a reason. The idea of this is to provide added contact to the blank for increased sensitivity. There are no exact standards for rods, because the rod builder sets their own. The only test is casting one in the hopes it performs to your desire. Exceptionally smooth casting rods load thru the bank not just the tip. Long rods most often cast further than short rods with proper backbone or spine to lure weight. Small light baits have limits no matter how well they cast. Trout Magnets, Trout Slayers, and tiny jigs catch lots of fish used in their niches. However, their weight is also their demise. Fishing fast deep moving water they never get down to the fish without adding weight. They are difficult to cast accurately on any type of tackle and their hooks are weak. I have landed numerous Steel Head in the seven-pound range using Trout Slayers and 4-pound line. Tungsten jigs and stout hooks increased my odds for success. Light wire treble hooks on small hard baits are inadequate for landing large fish. Single in line hooks land more big fish on light line because there able to withstand long battles with trophy size fish and not pull free. The true test of an ultra-light outfit is hooking and landing both large and small fish. Casting lures is one part; power and durability are equally important.
Great info Gizmo Carr..will check out your page👍
With every item in your vid you should put a link if people wants to buy it
Outstanding review. Appreciate you waiting out the rain and continuing the video.
Be well.
When you do rod reviews can you include a guide count? The number of guides plays a big part in wether I buy a rod or not (hence the line rub on the rod when it bends). I recently bought the Kuying Teton TTC-522SUL (Super Ultra Light) with 9 guides. It has a nice noodley action. Fun to catch fish on! The trigger grip is like the one on your Teton with a short solid cork handle (works great if you cast with your right and retrieve with your left). I paired it with the Tsurinoya XF-50. Can't wait to get an Alderberan BFS on it with the Avail spool. Thanks for all your informational videos. keep up the good work!
You can count the guides when I showed the taper in the vid. However the line DOES touch the blank when its curved
I bought one on Ebay. It came from China and was delivered with no problems. Yes it is worth the money but compared to my St. Croix Elite panfish not in the same ball park. I know I am comparing apples to oranges but you do get what you pay for. I agree with the review. Great job but find the background music too loud.
Thank you for the well done video about this rod. Sounds like an excellent choice for what I am looking for. Thanks again and keep posting your awesome videos.
I have one coming to put my Daviello Hicc 50 on. Looking forward to it.
Какие классные обзоры у вас ! Жаль не понимаю языка, на подсознательном, хорошо опыт рыбацкий большой. Молодец. Удачи !!!
There's currently a promo on this rod if you buy it with just the UL tip and no L action tip. I already bought one for my brother but ended up ordering another two. I have one in spinning configurationon the way I'll be rewrapping into an acid wrap. They are really nice little rods regardless of price.
I wish they had that deal when I bought it because I have no use for the L powered tip
Got mine paired up with the zephyr. Skating on some ceramic micro bearings.... The ultra light is super easy to detect light trout bites. I used to have a super sluggish 7 foot ultralight. I would get bites and not even feel them cause the tip would absorb the bite.
Idk why the plastic cork protector bothers people..it's on 5 of my bait casters that has cork and keeps the cork looking new...it doesn't change anything on how the rod performs or how it feels.After a few casts i don't pay any attention to it.
People think that if they dont like how you do something that you have to change it.. That bullshit doesnt happen on this channel and will never happen. I do what I want and how I want it :)
Ol' Extra Regular Bass the question should be, why do some dumbasses care what people do with their own possessions?
I use U40 corkseal. It it a coating you apply to cork. It soaks in and seals it. The cork will not stain near as easy and cleans off with a quick wipe. This is something untreated cork cannot do.
Durability seems to be the same. The color will darken just a shade or two.
One container isnless than $10 and will last dozens of rods.
On a side note: The plastic does actually give a good grip.
@THE REEL TEST, Thanks for putting this video up. I enjoy your reviews. They are always informative and I keep looking forward to the next one. Keep it up! One question about the rod, does it have a line rating? All the ALI Express listings that I found of that rod didn't specify the line rating.
Just finished the video, would be really awesome to see a budget hfs setup that ranges around $100-150 ( ok it's not budget, but a price point for competitive tending spinning rod setups)
Odysseus/shadow_sos A the next 2 videos are going to be for guys just like you :)
I'm not sure if you can, however on the basis of what you know from using the baitcaster version of this rod, would you also recommend the spinning version of the rod too. I use SUL soft plastics throwing weights between 0.5 and no heavier than 2 grams. I am waiting on delivery of a SUL Kuying Teton rod from Ali Express, however I was wondering if the 602 Ace Hawk spinning rod would also make a good alternative rod. Many thanks in advance
That cutout is so ur hand is in contact with the blank therefore giving u better sensitivity
you might wanna check out the new kuying Teton. Its only 50 dollars, has the same lure rating, and has a different handle. Oh yeah, and you also might want to check out the Abu Garcia revo ALC-BF7 in my opinion its even better than the slx bf8
Can you make a review on RYOBI SMAP-X BAITCAST 8+1 reel. Looks like it's a budget japanese baicaster. They make a few other models too and spinning reels as well. I have heard that they produce reels in Japan but the majority are made in China. Might be some quality differences between the two ,I don't know for sure. Some are saying that Ryobi us making very good quality reels for the money.
hi , for 3 years I use trulinoya fishing rod dexterity for trout with shimano aldebaran bfs xg 2016 for 70/80 $, I love this fishing rod if you have the opportunity to try it, you do not will not be disappointed;) 0.7 / 7gr
she 's not too soft it's a moderate fast action with a tips extra soft and i have to catch a pike (65cm) and brown trout (46cm) and no problem with the rod ;)
thanks for your vidéos and your share (sorry for my bad english ;) )
but the cost is much more right?
@@THEREELTEST yeap it s much more so we can have sometime a better price and with discount coupon ... it s really a great rod for the price for trout fishing ;)
fuji equipement and carbon 30T
How about a budget BFS rod that not on Aliexpress ?
Shimano has a really decent one for $20-30
Good stuff. I wonder how that setup can handle a 'bass assassin tiny shad' 1.5" plastic, on a#6 aberdeen hook. On vacation, I was throwing this with the scorpion BFS + 4'6" shakespeare micro series UL. I wasn't able to cast it well, really far, but I could still cast it far enough to catch a bunch of bluegills, and small bass. Maybe it would cast better on a longer rod, with a better bend. That plastic is a lot beefer, and thicc, than the trout magnet, and on that aberdeen hook, it sinks really slow. Very handy for keeping it in front of a fishes face when they are lazy or derped. Hours ago I hit the lake in the kayak, and nailed a mixed bag of panfish, and a little bass. That scorpion BFS is so slick, and is very handy for landing baits under overhanging branches, on that cheap micro series rod. Maybe I should get another one of those rods. The new ones are blue instead of gray.
sgtpavlov if that hook and plastic weighs around 1 gram or more total then it should be ok. Of course the reel will matter alot too. Next 2 vids should be great for all the budget BFS guys!
might have to get one! Nice video as always
I also use this spinning kit with a Daiwa Zillion SV TW 1016 reel. Comfortably throw baits from 3.5 grams.
im a bit addicted to you videos, im thinking of getting my first BFS setup... i was going to go with the gh100 and the ace hawk CU 602UL .... do you think these are still the best buy on aliexpress? i was also looking at the tsurinoya ajing (bit more expensive, do you have any experience with this rod?) . I believe these ajing rods have a tip action rather than a medium slow action of the ace hawk, you mentioned that you felt the ace hawks action helped casting the lighter lures, do you still feel that is still true?.... keep on making the videos they are great
guy
I am hoping it is the Chinese version of the Shimano Aldebaran BFS
there is this BFS under Tsurinoya/Tsulinoya brand check it out. This is also a chinese Brand.
I'm still can believe that kuying teton is 120 USD .. and the ace hawk very cheap in your country.. in my country is the opposite.. the kuying is about 40usd and the ace hawk price is about 80-90 usd.. and all the kuying price in my country is 80usd and below of any kuying product.. and kuying is very famous brand and reliable over here .
great review as always keep it up good sr .... I have a question are there any downside to having a longer BFS rod like 6'8 - 7'2 just to reference the point? and does anyone make BFS rods that long ?
I think for JDM you have to look at saltwater BFS rods for lengths that long. But Aliexpress has some in the 7ft range if you shop around and know how to convert the metric system
@@THEREELTEST any downside to having such long BFS rods for fishing inland ?
If you are casting with no space restrictions I dont see any downside to a longer rod.
@@THEREELTEST thank you your a scholar and a gentleman
The gap is "blank thru" characteristic.
Just ordered it , if you get the one tip version 0.5 -4gr it's £19.92 👍🏽😬🎣
You got a better deal than me lol
What would you pick: Kuying Teton TTC602UL or Ace Hawk Cu Double w/UL tip?
Excellent video as always, may I ask if you thought the handle was the right length or would a slightly shorter one better? And what was your opinion on the sensitivity of the rod? Thanks for your videos.. Keep them coming.
I think the sensitivity is average for a rod this light. If they chopped off about 1.5 inches off the handle and added it to the top it would have been better but I was just happy for a full grip coming from that Teton rod with its uncomfortable casting ergos
Cool A link would be brilliant 😎👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Great review, thanks so much. Recently subscribed to your channel, hi from Ireland!
Have you tried the Ace Hawk Voyager? Would love to know what you think of it. Do you think it would pair well with a Piscifun Phantom X?
Hey man, quick question.
I just purchased a shimano Calcutta conquest bfs. What rod would you recommend for a reel like that targeting trout in lakes and ponds. Besides streams.
Thank you
I just ordered this to replace my broken kyuing ultra lite .
You are right is too expensive!!
I picked up the Sensilight. It didn’t seem to be any lighter the the 7’2” Expride BFS.
Is this rod also available with a bit more casting weight? That would be awesome, then I would buy my first baitcasting rod later this year.
For a casting weight of 5g-20g I would have all artificial lures lying here and could start immediately after purchasing the combo
what kind of baitcaster is that
Do you have the ace hawk venom on order. I saw it on ali express not sure if it’s a new bfs rod or an old one
Those trout magnet are the shit.
Hello my friend.this is my request,can you make full review the Abu Garcia Hornet Stinger plus (JDM).BFS and medium action(casting model).are this HSPC rod good or worst? They are have 1 piece,2 piece and 4piece for 6'6" for medium and BFS.
Why didn't you take the plastic off of the foam grip?
the consensus is that the plastic cover will protect and prevent damage/ware and tear done to the EVA/foam or cork handle over time.
So I can sell it to some sucker as a new/never used MegaBass Ace Hawk for hundreds
@@THEREELTEST foreals tho
Very good
Hi, does this rod have a tip action or a parobolic action?
I just ordered the Ace Hawk Cu UL/L. Hit a coupon....$35 delivered!!
wow 30 ft? i am assuming that is 1/64 oz jig or 1/32? i forgot how much their jig weighs.
the jighead is 1/64. Total weight with the plastic 0.9 grams
That's pretty good rod tip.
I was wondering if I could turn my casitas into a bfs? Is there bfs spools for it?
Nice video
What pound test do you run on these BFS reels? Any other good options that aren't Aldebaran BFS XG money? I like the rod
I usually run 4lb flouro if bass fishing. 2-4 lb for trout. If you are looking for a budget BFS reel i have a unboxing video being released tomorrow that should interest you
@THE REEL TEST Intresting video Reel Test😉 I have a small question. Can you recommend a shimano roll for bait weights 40 to 100 grams? the role can be worth 200 but not more than 300.
I think the Tranx is what you are looking for
@@THEREELTEST ok thanl you.I will see if I can order this reel in the online shop where I buy. if not, are there others?
@@THEREELTEST the Tranx is in the online shop where I buy
You like to fish , you like fishing gear, but above all you love to hear yourself talk, good info to much talking thank
you mad bro? lol
I have been enjoy the $27 ToMa UL rod that you reviewed. Is there any big difference between the the ToMa and this one when it comes to casting and fishing?
I never reviewed a Toma rod
@@THEREELTEST o my bad. I assume it is just a brand. Didn't you review a cheaper BFS rod not too long ago?
yeah the 25 dollar stream angler? This Ace Hawk is a little bit stiffer and much nicer looking and better made in my opinion
I tested the Ace Hawk now for a couple months (with GH100 + cleaned bearings w high speed oil) and i struggle to get 2 grams out with the UL tip, even like 3 to 4 gram. I can cast around 7-8 grams with the UL tip (!?) with ease to a good distance, the L tip performs worse the 6-8g range, on the other hand no problems getting lures out with like 10g on the L tip. wtf am I missing :)
In the Video you toss 2g without any problems, did you test the gh100 on the ace hawk?
The guys full of shit . Flogging cheap chinese products .
@@elwooddestiny11blues20 me? I'm just giving you my personal experience with the GH100. I for myself saw people getting 3 grams out with it, but you need a little moor experience with BC reels to get it done. On the other hand, we are talking about a $50 reels in comparison with 150+ reels. I can happily say I'm fine with a little less distance for 1/3 the price. Other than that it performs pretty ok.
The ace hawk is a bang for the buck, but you really need to preload hard to get 3 grams out a decent distance
Does the aldebaran have a clicking drag when line is pulled out like the scorpion and the exsence dc? I think I might’ve missed that in the review you did.
watch the video again and you will find your answer
Yes. Go to 25:00 and enjoy.
That’s not ugly gap that gap is for feeling on the blank so your finger can feel everything on blank at all times
why do you not take off the plastic rap on the handle its is meant to be taken off i mean whats the point of having eva or a cork handle if it stays rapped in a slippery plastic its whole life
He mention before on his other video. He wants to keep the wrapper on so when he sell the rod. He sell as a NEW rod.
Ich Phan I don’t think he’s gonna sell a $40 rod or return it all the way to China tho
Luke Garrett ....that's what he said on his video....
Looks like Tailwalk Fullrange :)
Idiocy starts at 4:45. Your knowledge of why some casting rod grips have a cutout where the rod blank is exposed, either on top so the reel is in direct contact with the blank or on the bottom like you were showing, is limited (read: you didn't do your research before posting this.) It's there on better rods because when you are reeling in and have your fingers along the bottom of the grip, they are in DIRECT contact with the previously mentioned rod blank, which gives you MUCH more sensitivity to what is happening at the end of your line. This means that once you learn what things feel like during various casts, you can feel what kind of bottom you're on, or when a fish truly bites and not just tasting or testing the lure.
Please stop calling a feature of Fuju "ACS" Blank exposed rod grips that are there for a reason a negative on a rod, it makes you seem like you have zero idea of what you're making videos about. Also, the one without the cutout is Fuji "style" as you said so it's a chinese knockoff and they're making money off of fuji's R&D for the look but not doing the ONE thing that makes those style grips unique.
You seem very butt triggered lol
THE REEL TEST your response to constructive criticism indicates you are the one who’s butthurt.
You should have your own channel rusty. Since your so knowledgeable. You could be the first TH-camr to not get criticized for anything.
please, review Deukio JKS 50, thnks my friend!
can you recommend bfs reels from aliex? spinning and baitcaster
Watch the video I release tommorrow. Spinning cannot be BFS.
@@THEREELTEST how about baitcasting
tsunami shield reel
Have yet to watch the full vid but first comment
C'mon man. Kuying is a respected brand and you just bash it like it's trash. I've been using kuying for quite sometime and it really is a quality rod.
Just because of its handle you straight up put it as 'janky'. Besides, if you're using it for finesse, you're more likely to palm your reel anyway, so why bother with the short handle?
P/S: that gap you're referring to is for feeling the sensitive nibble when you're finesse fishing. It is the rod blank without the reel seat cushion-ing the blank, thus enhancing every nibble at the end of your line.
Why do you keep swapping hands just get a left hand wind reel its called wally winding in the uk
I think that's not bfs rod, is stream or area rod for trout fish, bfs only for bass fish 😁
What website are you going to to get these rods and reels I would love to get me some of them

Have you checked if the wrapping on the bottom is real or fake ?
I have another bfs chinesium rod, and watching carefully you can clearly see that is just a sticker, you can see the cut not being aligned.
For the price, they are nice rods nonetheless. But only for little treble hooks bait or wacky sight fishing, without covers.
I saw some with the same condition as you mentioned, it's pretty bad when they market it and claimed it taped wrapped.
Slx vs slx xt
U need a left handed reel mate lol that would wind me up keep switching hands to cast
Bro ! Buy to link Ace Hawk rod!
Go to Aliexpress and search for it
Cant find it but thanks anyway
Language not appropriate for anyone.
Excited to see the review on the slx mgl. Just got my email this morning that it has shipped 😈
