This type of setup is gaining traction down here in Australia. You do a fantastic job of explaining and breaking down what you're doing and what needs to be done. Awesome job!
@@TheUltralightLife i need you to go buy the dobyns 6'7 ultralight spinning rod and the 6'2 ultralight and do a review on those twoand tell me witch one them mothafuckas is better so i can buy it. thanks man
Thanks for sharing brother, should get my 700c in today and can’t wait to start throwing some tiny moving baits with it tonight. I’ll keep my 701c for bottom baits🤙
Bfs is so much fun. I'm a bank fisherman and alot of ponds and lakes i fish are really pressured and those finnesse lures catch them. Have you tried the 2.5 yamatanuki?i have been doing good with it
I agree its not ultralight, im not thowing less than a 1/20 on BFS. To me its strengths will shine when im fishing land based in amongst trees. I think Dobyms might be trying to get more into yu Aussie msrket. A popular youtiber did a review and he said it waa given to him by Pro Staff
Some dudes really throw 1 gram lures bro lol. There’s a lot of aftermarket mods, hyper light spools, etc to take a bfs reel to new territory. But at the end of the day I’m cool with using my ultralight rods under 3 grams. I like my ability to pitch light baits on spinning. How are you liking your new bfs setup
@@TheUltralightLife yea some guys have thrown trout magnets on the reel I have, it's one of the lightest spools. I struggle throwing them but I have a .8g low end casting and they are using the .3 kuying teton. I do want to try that though to see what the difference is
@@yep.fishing yeah too much line weighs it down too! Some bass pros here only fill their spool 2/3 when running heavier lines. On bfs rod I only do 50 yards. I may try some light braid eventually but I’m loyal to my other lines lol
@@TheUltralightLife Okay ... what brand? no offense i'm asking you this, because a lot people always ask for advice for "BEST BFS ROD", then i tell them and then their reply is "that's too expensive for me" lol; and that just waste my time
Thanks! I love spinning reels the most, but sometimes a baitcast reel shines. What application are you looking for outfit wise for the next one? I find good deals often with seasonal sales or buying from Japan
@@TheUltralightLife saving up points from digitaka! Hopefully the dollar stays strong 💪🏻? Not sure of the rod yet but looking at the Shimano Aldebaran BFS. But you never know what may come out at Icast. Really doesn’t matter right now just ordered a crazy Shimano spinning reel from them. Looking to cast under 3/16 for BFS when I get a BFS setup. Thanks
@@davidrauschenbach6871 the aldebaran is very sweet especially using a usd/yen exchange. I replaced alot of my USDM reels last year when the exchange rate was very favorable. Massive upgrades lol
Do you also fish the 701? I heard the 700 has this solo tip. I guess pretty good for drop shoting but I "feel" the 701 with the normal tip is might the better choice for crankbaits and topwater. Whats your thoughts? I wanna pull the trigger on friday on TWH. THX for helping me out!!
You must not see how many dead fish wash up after major professional tournaments. Ask the locals at Lake Chickamauga, Lake Champlain, Table rock lake etc. do you really think stressing a fish out in a small livewell all day, throwing them in a bag, carrying them around and showing them off is good for their health? As a former aquarium enthusiast, I can tell you the answers.
I've noticed tournament fisherman seem to think they have spot priority over recreational fisherman.

I actually had some of the larger ones for regular bass tackle and they look killerrr in the smaller size! Glad you’re having fun!
Great video
Great review, I was actually able to order that reel on Amazon $167
Awesome!!! A great reel, I’m gonna mod it soon
I am goin to order the Sierra 701 @@TheUltralightLife
@@retflo2583 awesome let me know how you like the faster action
Good setup for the fishing situation
Sure seemed like it in the moment lol. Thanks for watching!

@@TheUltralightLife 6lb J braid. I might try taking some off the spool though, I pretty much filled it.

I cast 1/32oz on my 2022 Shimano Aldebaran BFS, with a 60UL rod spooling 3lbs flouro for crappies fishing
What rod specifically? I’m looking for an UL bfs. True UL
@@TheUltralightLife First question how much you welling to spend for it, though?
@@leepao6302 my top end is $400 on bfs rods brother, I’ve paid more but prefer not to
@@leepao6302 have my eye set on a few under 200, but if it’s worth it I will make some sales and acquire

@@TheUltralightLife Sure did! 🤣😂🤣
But way is Dobyn´s saying it has an extra-fast taper?
Trust that is misleading. Maybe the tip the very very tip is extra fast. But that rod bends and loads excellently. I love it for micro cranks
@@TheUltralightLife Thanks for the info. I think I get one for myself.
@@kosmophon you will love it

@@kosmophon dang, I’ve never used the 701 to be honest. This rod in the video is awesome for 3/16 megabass bfs cranks by the way
Bfs vid was cool
Thanks man I appreciate it!
Tournaments do not deplete lakes of fish as they are almost always always always catch, take to weigh in and released.
You must not see how many dead fish wash up after major professional tournaments. Ask the locals at Lake Chickamauga, Lake Champlain, Table rock lake etc. do you really think stressing a fish out in a small livewell all day, throwing them in a bag, carrying them around and showing them off is good for their health?

It's not just about whether or not the fish survive the tournament. The excess fishing pressure is the main problem.
