Just absolutely blown away by the NZ footage already, got me frothing by the mouth as I’m stuck in Sydney. I would personally go on the lighter side and put 20-30lb braid, and up to 40-50lb fluoro for stickbaiting kings in Sydney harbour. Keen to see what you’ve got for next weeks video.
Yeah mate, the place is special - got real lucky with the trip / the company / the fishing was insane!! Thanks for the comment and the entry legend!
@@ByronTeaHill an experience of a life time that’s for sure
*Nice reel so far **enjoyable.fishing** recommend used it for about an hour after getting it from Amazon and functioned flawlessly. Very smooth retrieve and the anti reverse is perfect. Feels like a reel that would be double the price.*
Man- your fishing footages are totally EPIC!!! Awesome vibes!
Beautiful scenery and a great review! First time viewer of your channel; very professional 👍
For my 'big lap of Australia' planned for next year (that I've waited 40+ years for), the Saltist 4000 would be a beautiful 'do it all' reel when space-limited for the amount of tackle I can take.
Spooled with the incredible Daiwa Saltiga 12 EX braid in PE2 it will cover impoundment Barra, Longtail Tuna and do service as a surf/rock reel; perfect 'do-it-all' reel (and it looks gorgeous!)
Yes bro up there with one of my favourite vids from you hope your well tight lines mate
The sickest reel review footage I've seen to date. Awesome review! Would love to target Blue Dotted Coral Trout in the East Kimberley. Can't wait for your NZ trip videos.
You're in!
Thanks for another informative review Byron. 👍 Looking forward to your next video
Too Easy mate
Keen to see the next videos! Awesome review! The setups can be so versatile but I would definitely target some snapper and opt for 30lb braid paired with 30-60lb leader depending if I was to chase larger species too!
Keen to get it out there! thanks for the entry mate
You are a talented and engaging presenter Byron. The streaming quality of your videos is a cut above the rest - even on the water the picture is crisp.
I’d target inshore jewies with some of that Tasline you talked about. Sounds like I need to try it!
Wow, thank you! Tight lines mate.
Always making a nice video. I'm waiting for the new Daiwa TD black MQ reel
hmmmnnnn, was hanging in the background :)
@@ByronTeaHill
So you already have use one already? Nice. Can't wait for that next video of you using that reel. Cos i pick up a old TD black rod for 80$. That's why I'm now saving up for the new TD black MQ reel. Thanks for the heads up. Always love watching your TH-cam channel
Insane vid! Can't wait to see the NZ vlog. I lived there for 3 years fly fishing for trout and salmon and chasing pelagics in the salt. Such an incredible place!
As for the reel I'd chase king's on my yak with 30lb braid and 40lb leader!
Mate, pumped you liked the video mate
Great video again BTH! You deserve a MUCH bigger audience - I'm sure it will come. For the kind of fishing I do, would probably be jewies off the beach with 20lb braid.
Nice video, you had an epic trip by the looks of things. I recon I'd load it with 40lb braid to chase shore based fish off the rocks down south wa using soft plastics. Thanks for you great work editing you media for us to watch 🤙🤙
no worries Richard glad you're enjoying the content mate
Really keen to see your NZ trip videos mate, looks epic from the preview. For the reel I’ll spool up with 20-30lb of braid, primarily for targeting snapper from kayak and/or sambo from surfcasting.
Entered! Mate thanks
Great footage, cant wait to see more of your NZ trip. Would love to take my dad there when lockdowns are over and we can travel again.
Saltist is a very pretty reel, one of my fave colours :)
I think i would us 20lb and target kings in Botany Bay
Thanks Jessica, cheers for getting involved again!
Bloody sensational footage and review Byron. Everything I wanted to hear. Had my eye on these Saltist MQ reels since their release! Initially I was going to match my BG 4000s but may even consider the 3000 like you said with 15 lb braid for the Port Phillip Snapper this season….. I hate fishing heavy now , I guess it’s the finesse Bream man coming out in me?After all it is a sport! Cheers , and see you at the Nicho🤞
See you there buddy! thanks for entering mate, I know its a little different - but thanks for watching the content legend
Your production is top notch mate! Just learning the ropes here and know how much work it takes to put together this type of quality - I look forward to picking up some tips.
as for the reel, i would spool it up with 20lbs test braid and would use it for stripers, blues and albies here in the North East of Long island NY.
Thanks!
Thanks buddy, Appreciate the comment mate really means a lot. Entered and good luck!!!
You knocked this review out of the park, well done mate ,I would rig it up with 30 lb braid targeting kings all day long . Bring on next week video
Thanks Ben!!!! entered buddy.
Very pertinent timing Byron. I've been researching the Saltist MQ (they're not available retail yet) as another snapper set-up for 10kg soft-baiting here in Port Stephens. I'd be keen to get a comparison of the Saltist v's the Certate. I love my Certates, but boy does it hurt when you lose one... Recently had a snapper (presumably) snap a Samurai Reaction rod below the reel seat with a Certate and take it overboard.
great review Byron n looking forward to the NZ mammoth snap vids. the first time i seen this reel was at icast n then i watched the daiwa australia product release to get more info from an aussie point of view. i had already made my mind up from icast so i am buying 2 saltists wen they arrive. the daiwa product release cemented that for me. i will be getting 2 5000s n putting them on 2 of the new saltige 9 surf rods for chasing jew on soft swimbaits from the headlands n cutters leading into the headlands. why 2, different line classes n leaders. keep up the gud work mate.
good to hear man, glad you liked the video and stopped by! seems like there's a bunch of you that I find myself replying to every week! the support is real!
@@ByronTeaHill mate ur reviews r unbias no matter the circumstance of how u got the product, also there is no spiel. i find ur content gud to watch n u present ur self well on the camera. also there is no yahooing n noisy music.
NZ is just breath taking. Love the imagery and can’t wait for next weeks video. I’d use the reel to target snapper, salmon, school tuna and kingfish with 20lbs or 40lbs depending on what I’m chasing.
Sounds great!
Another great review and some awesome footage of NZ 😍 I would love to test the 4000 out on some top water jervis bay king fish and would spool it with some 40lb 🎣
How good does NZ look and fish! Great footage mate, looking forward to more over the coming weeks.
I would love the new 4000 Saltist. 30lb braid with 50lb leader to chase the metery Cod's in my local, Googong dam
Coming soon! I'm editting as we speak!
Great review Byron! The new Saltist in the 4000 looks like the perfect all-round inshore reel - would give it a run on snapper / mulloway set ups with PE 2.
Absolutely! thanks dude
Hi mate. Great video again. I woul chase mulloway in the Coorong in SA. Spooled with 20lb braid this baby will be a weapon.
Thanks
Marcin
Easy, glad you enjoyed it
Awesome Byron. Looking forward to seeing your video of the NZ trip. I'd target Snapper and Gummies here in Tassie. Probably use 40lb braid.
Are you going to do a review of the Tasline braid from Burley Pro ?
Hadn’t thought about it Collin, may be something to consider!!! Thanks for the entry Collin.
Great review mate. For the reel, I'd use 20lb braid for snapper in the bay. Just got a compass so the gear will combo nicely on the new yak!
NZ footage looks excellent can't wait for the upcoming vid.
Compass!! Mate one of my favourite kayaks, gateway to adventure IMO. Awesome.
Another awesome review great stuff mate ! Definitely be using it for snappers or some reef fish and and pair with the 4000 size would be either 20 - 30lb braid
Super stoked for the constant content ! keeps me company during lockdown when I can't have a quick flick 😭
awesome dude! appreciate the viewership mate
Awesome footage. I'd be chasing jew up in seq and running 20lb braid to 30lb leader. Keep up the good work the vids are quality 👌
THanks mate!!! in!
Awesome review as always! The reel I was most pumped about at Daiwa's recent release no doubt, I would personally use her for the exact same sorta thing! Haha, Snapper on soft plastics in shallow water with 20lb braid is something I froth on every time and I'd like to call my mainstay I just need to get the numbers up haha which hopefully will come with time and effort! Cheers for the vid legend and awesome footage 🤙🏽🤙🏽. PS, I dont know why, but you look exactly like one of my relatives, I wonder if we're related 😂. Keen for the future videos 🤙🏽🎣
Thanks Coza!!!! you relative must be a good looking guy! hahahaha Thanks for the entry legend. thanks mate
Epic video Byron 🎥🎣👍🏼
Would love the new Saltist MQ pair it up with PE 4 for Jewfish and Kings landbased !!
Interested to see the what's new with Daiwa.. keep the new gear reviews coming 🤑
Mate! Glad you liked it dude. There's a couple of reels in the background that are Daiwa, those reviews will come soon, and sure to keep us fisho's broke.
@@ByronTeaHill Watched the showcase and was frothed up on the new reels that's for sure !
Can't wait !!
Very excited about the new revelrys and Caldia LT 21 👍🏼🎣
You already know the go bro, we’re chasing them kinnnnnnngs!!! Spooled with saltiga braid PE 2 and varivas 40lb leader 🥶😍
Yeah dude!!!! Kingfish FTW!
@@ByronTeaHill ❤️
I would use the Saltist MQ to target Pelagics like Kingfish and Bonitos using 30lb line! A bit light and dangerous with the risk of being smoked involved but a lot of fun!
Great review video Byron! Very keen to see your vlog of your NZ trip - on my bucket list of fishing destinations!
Thanks Mate! saw you comment on the channel last week, thanks for stopping by again
can’t wait for next weeks video Byron… I’d spool this reel with 20lb and chase snapper with it. Thought Daiwa would let you keep those reels?
Thanks Julio, nah - When Daiwa offered me them to try the deal was they needed them back.
BT living the dream again catching stonker after stonker!!! Love it.
For me the 4000 with some gosen casting braid on there around that 40lb mark chasing kings landbased. Tis nearly the season 👀
Snapper season coming up!!!
great video again awesome, Big trophy flathead and Bass I would try the Taz line 16lb NZ looks like the place keen on the next video cheers
You're in!
Another great review Byron with some epic footage, I would use it for stick baiting and popping the reef flats for Coral Trout and the like, spooled up with 40-60lb range Braid with slightly heavier leader. If I win, I'd team it up with one of the new Saltiga C Rods which would give me a nice light to mid range offshore rig.
Awww yeah!!! nice buddy
Awesome looking reel, love the electric blue but even more so... WHAT AN EPIC LOOKING TRIP!!! Great catches and great info, as usual. I'd be looking to spool on some 20lb braid with the 4000 and I think it would work a treat heading into the spring. Looking to do some light shore jigging off the rocks (maybe a Kingie or two) or that dream, trophy snapper down deep.
It was an epic trip Chris such great memories dude
Great vid as usual bud, hanging for the NZ show! I would use this on a 10ft beach rod and load it with 30lb mono.
You're in! thanks buddy
@@ByronTeaHill Sweet as, thank you :-)
So keen for NZ trip mate, it looks amazing already. I'd chuck some 20lb Tasline on, I've been debating whether to upgrade my reels for some time now. I'd use it for spotties, spanish, snapper, sweetlip and longies in the bay, as well as jacks, jewies and some biggggg flatties in the estuaries and canals. Keep up the awesome work, hands down the best fishing youtuber out there
Hell yeah that would be good! mate really nice of you to say, thanks Jared!!! bloody legend
Awesome video Byron! Love all your review vids.
I would use a 5000 with 60lb braid on the shore jigging rod i just ordered to chase Kingfish
Thanks Skoz, pumped that people like you are watching video after video! bloody legends
@@ByronTeaHill Always love seeing new video notifications from your channel after long days at work
Yew - I love going to NZ chasing snapper and kingys and in saying that I would use this reel chasing them down around jervis bay. I love the 20lb braid setup for this.
In other videos you put a lot of info regarding recording gear, any chance you could start adding rod and reel combos? Would like seeing what combos you use for all those bream!!!
A was smashing that box for the NZ adventure below - can’t wait for that footage?!!!!
Hey mate that's a good idea! I am changing gear pretty quickly but I'll try remember next vid
Awesome footage and great review on the reels. I would spool it with 30lb braid targeting salmon, bonito, tailor and kingies off the breakwall and rocks!
Sounds great!
Great video , I really enjoyed it .
Question , how much of PE 2 braid , approx
X 0.23mm can the 3000 take .
Best estimate ?
These things look great mate. I was so impressed by Daiwas recent product launch. For a 4000 size, I’d be targeting Port Phillip Bay Snapper with 20lb braid.
I think a lot of people were dude! Can see a few companies following them.
Another great video , Byron! I’ve had an annuals trip tNZ’s Northland chasing Snapper and Kings and would love to put the Saltist 4000 through its paces over there. I like to fish as light as possible, so I think I’d load it with 20lb Saltiga 12x Braid, so it could serve double duty for soft plastics with heavy jig heads and the slow pitch Kaboura style lures.
Nice Alf!!! entered and thanks for the kind words buddy - good luck
Can't wait to see more of the NZ footage mate. For the 4000 size it go 20lb braid and chase some snapper
Sick video man! looks like an awesome location. 🤙
Would probably use the Saltist on snapper and gummies with saltiga braid PE 2.0 36lb
Thanks Callum
Looks so sick daiwa saltist is one of my favourites still have both the pervouis generation saltist reels going strong and would be super keen to try target some kingfish and some Jewies running 30lb braid love the video legend drone shots of nz blue water looks so sick can’t wait for lockdown to end and aus summer to come back
The do look nice don't they! thanks Corey.
Love the video. This reel is one I was told would be a great addition to my new StCroix
Rod. I would use 20lb braid and 20-30 lb floro.
Right on
For the 4000 definitely hit the beautiful red snapper soft baiting in the yak 30lb braid would be my preferred. Can’t wait to get back out. Such a great vid excited for all the other footage of NZ.
Glad you liked it buddy. thanks for entering mate
NZ looks Epic mate!! Can’t wait to see the rest. The Saltist looks like a beautiful reel too. I’d love to have a good setup for chasing Longtail Tuna in the bay, a 4000 size with 30lb braid. One can dream…
You're in!
NZ is epic - I did the mountains but never made it to the coast. I would bottom bash big soft plastics for snapper and mowong using the 4000 with 20lb jbraid. The reel aesthetics are mint! Great review and footage again 🤙
The reel looks good doesnt it!
@@ByronTeaHill 👌
Great vid mate, good to see videos on bigger species. The 3000 would be great for Snapper up here in Qld. I’d rig it with 20 pound braid.
Cheers
No worries buddy! More to come! Thanks for the entry Michael.
I would target snapper in the shallow reefs where I live in the sth east of SA, I’d be putting 20lb on it tbh, I use that fine diameter to smash out massive casts and the snaps aren’t xos here so makes it awesome fun!
You were so lucky to make that trip, I remember the lockdowns happened just about a day b4 either side of the dates you travelled! Couldn’t happen to a nicer bloke tho! Was so happy you made it
mate I was so lucky and you're memory serves you well. Lockdowns on either side of the trip!
The footage of NZ looks great, can't wait for the trip video. I'd go 20-30lb braid and have a crack at some Kingfish on top water.
Can't wait
Another awesome vid mate, would have to go the 20lb for east coast snapper 👌
Nice!
Good Solid Review! Was keen to see what they were like since they got released on the daiwa night...I'd probably use them for a western port setup for snapper and gummies using 30lb braid either in J-Braid Grande or Nomad Pandora depending on if I needed more abrasion resistance
thanks Jared! I think they would be great in there. Tight lines mate
Sweet review Byron, as always. 4000 size reel, I would target harbour kings on 30lb line.
Thanks mate
hey, great video. What rod were you using with the 4000 on 30lb braid? Ive got a 4000 and trying to pair it with the right stick (float line snapper, live bait bottom and plastics etc)
sick as footage man! seen you in the port a couple weeks back love the rig!! would use the reel in and around welshy for kings and snapper! would run probably 30lb tas on it🤙🏼
Was that on the other side? I think I threw you a wave! Legend, thanks for tuning in buddy, appreciate you stopping by dude
@@ByronTeaHill yeh man i got so excited when you waved back! so sick man
Amazing quality on the video Byron. I'd use the 4000 for snapper spooled with 30lb braid.
Thanks buddy!
Awesome review Byron I would use the 4000 reel with PE2 Island blue j braid for my jewie set up.
Thanks Gary!!!
Interesting vid as always Byron.
So is the knob the same size for all sizes in the range or is it matched to the reel?
Interested to hear your thoughts on the TD black you matched to the 3000 Saltist.
If I was to have a 4000 size, I would likely load it with 30lb braid.
As I'll be in the market for a suitable outfit for my Son to tackle our local kingfish this season, this is one of the reels I will look at.
Great job as always
Matched to the reel dude. larger reel = larger knob
I got the Saltist MQ 20000 for popping, jigging, and stick bait fishing for the 100-150 lb bluefin tuna that have made permanent residence here in Southern California. Good times!
Trying to decide between this daiwa saltist and the tsunami salt x. Opinion? Would love to know what u think! Coukd sway my decision. Thanx for the work u put in
Hey mate once again great info on the new daiwa saltist. def need to enter the comp cheers mate, so I would target macs and tuna off of moreton bay and be using 30lb Fins Braid on that bad boy> also would love to see a saltist vs penn slammer review, just a thought
That sounds good! thanks buddy
Great vid mate, I’d definitely be using it for snapper offshore, and jewfish at the Hawkesbury
Nice one!
Amazing and helpful video!
I would target Striped bass, spooled with 30lb power pro braid.
Good luck!
Wow - what incredible footage! I’d love the Saltist MQ with 30 pound line, to chase Sydney kingfish & hope to get some amazing footage like yourself!
Thanks legend
Awesome review, Definitely be after a 4000 size reel for chasing snapper with 20lb braid.
Thanks Sam
Great review. How good is New Zealand. Could see myself chasing some small tuna on this and some Tassie snapper.
Tony! the best dude 100%
Greetings From The USA Byron! and Good Review and Beautiful Scenery from NZ Mate! 🎣👍🏻....I would use the new 21 Saltist MQ 4000 paired up with 20lb Braid to target all Light Inshore Species here on the USA- (East Coast, NJ/FL) such as, Striped Bass, Bluefish, Flounder, Redfish, Snook, and Small Tarpon
G’day buddy! I heard the saltwater game on the east coast of the US was strong! Thanks for the comment brother, glad you enjoyed the content. Logged the entry and good luck mate! I’d love to head over and fish there sometime!
Great review vid. Would target snapper on the inshore reefs as well as mulloway in the river.
20lb braid
Absolutely
Great footage Byron!! I would be targeting south coast King fish, bonito and probably live bait big flathead . I would spool tge 4000 with 20lb braid.
Very nice! Thanks for the entry Steve.
Good work Man! 🤙
Thanks mate
Some great looking locations!
I’d look at putting some Pe3 braid and using it as an all rounder on the shoals, jig for snapper/trout and then flick at tuna/mackerel as they bust up.
Great review. I would put 20 lb sufix 832 to go for snook, mackies and jacks from the shore.
Beautiful fishing adventure video. Love your passion in this video. I would target vermillion and ling cods with the 4000 model. Depending on the season I would set it up with daiwa boat 20 or 30 pound braid. Here in the Pacific Northwest coast.
Thanks for getting involved from the other side of the world dude!!!
Amaizng trip so pumped for next week! If I somehow if I had that reel 100% would put some 25-30lb braid and target some big Jewies and snapper out off the coast if I got the chance. Keep up the awesome work!
Thanks buddy, hope next week lives up to expectations
Nice review!, I would use 20 lb braid on the 4000 and use it for everything on Hawaii’s shoreline 🤙
Loved the vid mate.
I would target snapper and kingfish with 30LB braid.
Thanks mate! Entered
Hi Byron I'm absolutely in love with your videos and I would love to use that reel for live baiting and soft plastics for kingfish and jewfish, I would probably put 30lb daiwa 8 braid on it. Keep up the amazing work 🔥🔥🔥
Absolute legend!!!! Thanks mate! Every week :)
Chasing cod in winter and then barra in spring, perfect size to cover all bases. 30lb braid to give plenty of leader options 🤙
Great video Byron! 1) I would target snapper, and 2) I’d spool with 20lb braid. Thanks!
Great review Byron - I would target Kingfish and use 20lb j braid
Entered
I’d be targeting kings on the surface in the hacking. Spooled with pe 1.5/2 casting braid. Pair it with daiwa’s td black slugger and a Berley pro hat 👌🏽 best content loving it!!!
thanks Sabrina!!!
Great review. I chase snapper on soft plastics and would love a 4000 reel. I'd spool it with 20lb J Braid in blue.
With the 4000 reel I would target snapper and I would go with 30lb braid and 40lb leader. Great vid as always.
Thanks Phil!
awesome video, personally i would use the reel for throwing little stick baits at small school bluefin tuna and maybe even some little deep drops 30-40 pound braid
Awesome
Really looking forward to the NZ footage suspect it is going to be epic. I would like to target Mulloway on 30-40lb. With regards to reel comparisons, I'd be very interested in your views on the Revelry FC MQ and the 21 TD Black MQ.
Someone has a good eye for the background!
It is awesome, hopefully we do an OK job at telling the story!
Thanks legend.
My thoughts exactly, love to see Byron test the rest of the new release MQs…….also got my eye on the Revelry range!
I'll be spooling a 20 lb braid and target kings and tailor off our spot in the Central Coast when lockdown is over!
Love the NZ footage Byron. I would definitely go on the lighter side and put 20-25lb braid and 40-45lb fluoro. I would go and chase some big snapper and it would definitely be fun in the lighter side in my opinion
Nice!!!
Amazing footage Byron, those snappers had me salivating and dreaming of campfire fish.. I would go after Sydney harbour king fish with 20-30lb braid.. Oh how I dream to catch a snapper that big. Massive bonus points from the wife I reckon hahahaha.
It was an amazing trip mate
Awesome review Byron, love Daiwa regardless.
I would use a 4000 size the most targeting everything between flatheads and GTs, slap on some 20lbs line on that bad boy and enjoy the drag scream, will definitely target some Malaysian monsters when I get beck home. Fan from Malaysia 🇲🇾 (studying in Australia).
Right on
Hi Byron, I would spool the saltist up with siglon advance in PE2.5 and use it for snapper on soft plastics. Can’t wait to see the NZ footage. Before your next trip I would recommend trying an overhead reel For live baits, jigging & slow pitch I much prefer overhead reels for this as I find it more user friendly, better contact with the jig, easier to get a rhythm going and a bit more control in the fight 👍
You're onto something there dude, I think thats the way to go - overhead definitely has its application
I’ve got an old 4000 from 10 yrs ago and it’s still good. A Jarvis Walker Sovereign Series. Love it. People like you though have changed the way I think about my fishing methods. Used to target Bream and smaller Estuary fish with it and a bloody surf rod! So with the new MQ, by the way saw the Daiwa release show, wow some of those reels!, I’d target bigger Estuary fish Jewfish and Flathead with 20 lb j - Braid. Maybe 30 lb leader.
they look great don't they! thanks for sharing your thoughts Justin!
Awesome vid Byron. I love NZ it's an amazing place. I'd run 40lb and chase the long tail tuna that are in my area. Thanks 😊
No problem, THanks Peter
Another cracking vid mate. Snapper and Kings, and 30lb Tas would be perfect on it.
Cheers Aaron
Mad video!🤙 Would use for casting at tuna, or if I do more offshore stuff, will swap onto a slow pitch rod for AJs. Both with 30lb braid.
Glad you liked it mate! Thanks for the entry.
