Took your crossfire advice with 6lb J-braid and absolutely love the combo
Glad you did! Epic system they got
where to buy that?
@@fdsaffff All the big box outdoor stores sell the Crossfire but Bass Pro has the best stock of those. I get my J braid x8 on amazon usually, or online tackle stores that I recognize like discount tackle
Sick! This reel looks cool, it has some cool features
Love it! Thanks for coming
This is actually a pretty good reel. Most spinning ball bearings are the same size and I have took some BBs from my broken reels and put them in the Cross Fire and it does make a difference in how solid it feels.
I was thinking about upgrading my son with the crossfire from the 6'6" G-Shock 2500 to 7'0 crossfire 3000 here in Humboldt county CA ware we fish for anything from trout steelhead to 25 pound salmon. I just made up my mind this crossfire really felt good in the shop and sounds like it will hold up for him tell he gets a little bigger and probably put some good memories in the family photo album thanks for the info
Love my crossfire I have 15lb braid on it and I must say it has 22 pounds of Mac drag which is very very impressive for the price point and the size of the reel
Awesome video!!! Definitely gonna look into this reel.
Also have bought one due to Peirce, can't wait to use it!
Nice job bro, great to see you again we need to go 🎣 soon
Thinking about getting one in a 4000 or the 5000 size great video thanks 🐟
Finally a review in English thank God lol
😂
I got one of these reels the other day and the drag is super tight even when it’s fully lose
Nah sounds like your reel is defective
Should be very easy to turn
Use my Diawa with my 6'6 Okuma rod.❤
Awesome brands! Okuma makes great budget equipment!
what’s the difference between the model numbers C and CP? At the end for example, CFLT-3000-C-CP versus CFLT-3000C
Cp means clam pack, for some reason the box one doesnt come with spool spacers so you might want to get the clam pack
@@finnafishfl Thanks for the quick response
I need to start taking pics and vids of the crossfires in action!
Hahaha whats up!! Do it bro
Shoutout from Miami
Ayeee
Any way to swap out the bushings for bearings on these?
What size would you recommend either 3000 or 4000 for fishing off shore casting lures 15-40g in England
Not sure the game you'll be after, maybe seabass? If so, those sizes would be perfect. If you come into really strong fish that need a ton of drag, the crossfire might not be a good option. Like here we have grouper and snapper offshore, I wouldn't use it for those but for some seatrout or game under 15lbs I would. Just make sure you have over a hundred yards (not sure in meters but very close) of the line you want to use and that should be the right size for you. I'm sure both 3000 and 4000 would work. Make sure you clean your reel well after salt!
@@finnafishfl thank you mate that really helped I think I’m going to go for the 4000 size , what lb braid do you recommend for the 4000 thanks
@@ryanashley3125 I'd put 20 if I was fishing down in snags or as light as 10 if I need distance with my casts. 15 is fine too for an in between
@@finnafishfl cheers mate really appreciate the help
Hey dude , nice video.
I just bought the 4000 crossfire.
Do you know how strong the drag is ?
Daiwa pretends it s 10 kilos , wich is around 22 pounds but i think they over estimate it.
Anyway..take care.
I have 4 or 5 and have gave a few away over the years, but what happened to the anti reverse?
Did away with that useless switch! Just another point of entry for water anyways I prefer reels without them
@@finnafishfl I use the anti-reverse switch multiple times every single time I fish when I want to pull out more line for casting or re-tying a lure. It’s much easier than monkeying around with the dragon pulling out line by hand.
@@WisGuy4 I just use the bail and I'm saddened when a reel I like has this point od failure
Bomb proof. I have 4 of them. My go too is my LT2500 with 10lb sufix. Great video sir.
Bro where have you been let's link up 🤟🎣
@@rosariofishing I'm fishing right now! I'll be back in Orlando today

What is this comment doing here BHahahahahahahha😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Great video, subbed, also...giga chad.
8lb jbraid and this reel is perfect
6lb way better for the sizes I use! 8lb too thick
@@finnafishfldo this reel needs mono backing
Does it have instant reverse latch/bearing?
Like a switch? No. It does have an instant anti reverse clutch but no switch
perfect, exacty what i just wanted to know@@finnafishfl
Sar Mai English language not good but I one question ❓❓ ugly stik gx2 7 feet fishing rod made in China all India also selling but original duplicate I don't no I want one piece road but confused this road good ugly stik load power made in China good quality ay bat quality please solution sir sad details tell me please sir details
What kind of line should I use
What ya fishing for
@@finnafishfl on the jetties at the beach. A Spanish mackerel
@@12degreesnowman11 depends on the size reel you get, 10lb braid and a 3000 size. j braid, powerpro, suffix all good brands
👌👌🙏💪🔥 You got ads on your vids 😎
Can it really handle that much drag that company suggests?!! Don't the 22 pounds of drag will break it? Considering a graphite body.
As I said this is a good light tackle reel. I wouldn't get it to stop a jack at the jetty
Though I've seen friends turn 10lb jacks on the 2000 size
@@finnafishfl But if thier body is made to handle small size fish, then why companies put that much drag on them?
Like 12 kgs drag on the 4000s.. I am wondering if its graphite body can handle that much load..!
@@AbdulGhani-ld9np for people who want to give it a try! I'm not brave enough for that but I bet it would last a bit on big game. It's surprisingly rigid, the reel
@@finnafishfl Thanks for the Guidance!
promote it on Crossfire Nation!
Forgot to tag in my story frick
come back

Title: i use $30 fishing reel in saltwater.
The video: no fishing or whatever
If you assume things it makes an ass out of u and me. Watch the previous upload. This is not a video of my using the reel, it's a review. Obviously
@@finnafishfl no offense but did you read your tittle? Alternative title: here's my thought using a $30 reel for saltwater or something.
@@finnafishfl yeah its a review but can you see a word review on the title?
@@ravenger2711 The title also didn't say "me using a 30$ reel in saltwater" which would imply what you're thinking. Saying I use something somewhere isn't the same as saying "I'm using something somewhere." There are no words in the title indicating I'm using it in the video. That's just you wrongly assuming I would. Anyways look at the thumbnail, it's in my room, another thing that makes it obviously not a fishing video. Unless you thought I would be fishing in my aquarium which with your assumptions shouldnt be out of the question. I have plenty of videos using it in saltwater on my channel if you'd like to watch that.
@@finnafishfl just put a key word review
I can't find that gasket anywhere .. Boo hoo .
@philgale1752 it's on the nicer LT reels. I think the revros on up has it. If you get a chance to look at some daiwas just take the drag knob off and look under it. I know for a fact the crossfire and laguna do not have one
Doesn't hold much line unfortunately
Shallow spool makes more room for drag washers, makes the drag smoother. Other reels are too deep IMO
