Do you have a budget friendly setup that you want me to review? Put a comment down below so I can review it!
Lews classic pro baitcaster combo
@@danielhendonable Love the idea! I will definitely be checking into this! I’m not seeing that setup as a combo? Where can I buy it?
If you can’t use this combo just stay away from casters seriously it’s a entry level combo period i Just bought a few for 30$ at my local Walmart I’ve used tons of reels and have high end gear learn how to use a casting reel before you come to a conclusion this is a great combo for the price especially if you can get it on sale
Nope I have a job
@@dingledee2704 Don’t get me wrong I like a high end setup just as much as the next guy but it’s nice to have a cheap setup as well so you don’t have to worry about being tough on it
I just ordered this reel and rod combo on sale for $30! I’ve never owned one and wanted to try it out! Glad I could find a good budget friendly one to try out
I just now did from walmart i hope its good ive never used one
These are on sale right now at Walmart for $40 and also includes two lures and spooled mon line. Just picked on up as I never owned a baitcaster before.
That’s awesome! I’d recommend putting new line on it. I’ve heard people have had bad luck with the line that comes on it. I love this combo!
@@InlineOutdoors I may do that. It's been birdnesting on my like craaaazy. Trying to dial this thing in.
Just caught one of these in my local lake with an abu garcia black max reel , can't wait to try it out 😄
I got the vengeance in a spinner rod, spent 4 hours out on the lake with it yesterday and loved it.
I might have to try the spinning rod!
I got one and love it worth the money I honestly enjoy, throwing it more than my mock one
Great review. Def appreciate the unbiased pros & cons.
Thanks for the support! I hate watching biased reviews so I’m glad to contribute.
I bought this combo a few months ago and I am extremely pleased with it. I use crankbait,worms,spinner baits, buzz baits, it's been working fine with each different lure choice. I am well pleased with my purchase.
Thank you for responding to me. Are you going fishing today?
Not today but I wish! Was stuck at work most of today! Hoping to get out this weekend!
I understand even though I am not working, we're under a heat advisory here in Kansas.
Just picked one up for 75 at Walmart, seems nice . Excited to use it👍
That’s a great deal! I think you will like it!
I just bought this Abu Garcia vengeance medium havey bait caster rod for $50 dollars and I pared it up with the Abu Garcia max x bait caster reel 👍🏼🔥 🎣 I'm going fishing tomorrow
Heck yeah! I’m also thinking about doing a review on the max x! Just have to buy it first lol Good luck fishing! Let us know how it goes!
How is it ?
Very good casting equipment, wish i could buy 😁
It seems great so far! For a lot of years I used spinning setups, getting into baitcasters has been eye opening!
Great video! New subscriber. I was physically heading to GameMasters to buy this combo for $99.99.
I’m gonna order off your link instead! Thanks for the info!🎣🇺🇸
I want to use it for catfish under 20lbs with stink bait. Do you have any better suggestions?
Thank you Jason, much appreciated! Funny enough, I was actually talking with someone earlier today about how this would make a great setup for catfish! I’m planning on hitting the river with it this weekend! If you do decide to get one, let me know what you think of it!
This channel is so underrated for real
Thank you Kaleb! That means a lot!
Your welcome keep it up man
I saw these at a Walmart in Rhode Island today on clearance for $40. I now own 2.
$40 is a great deal! For the price they are definitely worth!
How is it ??
picked one of these up for 80 bucks at bimart not a bad feeling combo compared to my other shimano but the tension spool did stop working
Not bad for the price
Can u show us ur breaks drag and tension set up and what pound test ur running
On this reel
I believe I have 15 pound fluoro on this reel. Check out my last video about casting a Baitcaster. It goes through how to properly adjust any baitcasting reel to avoid backlashes! You will want to adjust your tension pretty regularly so there isn’t one specific setting to keep it on. However I would turn the breaks up pretty high if not all the way up.
I'm inexperienced, never used this style reel before. First cast, the line spool became a complete rats nest. Seems unusable. What am I doing wrong?
How do you cast this thing?
Also what kind of line did you put on the line?
Hi Bastian. You have to adjust the brakes and tension on a reel like this. Also, use your thumb to stop the reel from spinning once your lure/bait hits the water. The rats nest is a result of the spool still spinning while your lure is no longer moving. Hope that helps.
@@alotek2408 Thanks, but I returned it and bought a reel that I could actually make work. Lol
Picked one up today with two square bills $38. Have only casted in the yard tonight but would definitely pick up a few for the money. I did purchase braid to respool but that’s all I’ve used on baitcasters so far. $38 for a smooth ass combo, definitely don’t wait
Braid is definitely a great option for this combo! I spooled mine with fluorocarbon but feel like braid would make this even better! I’m planning on picking up at least one more!
@@InlineOutdoors as a beginner with plenty of backlashes , again haven’t experimented much but braid backlashes come out pretty easy. I do carry tweezers with me all the time .
@@Joestacemazjojo Backlashes happen to all of us lol I would agree that braid is much easier to learn on than other lines. I’ve only been using baitcasters for a couple years, when did you start?
@@InlineOutdoors 3 months ago. A video I watched suggested 30lb braid so that’s where I am. Definitely have better odds on backlash but again braid seems easy to get it figured out. Again appreciate the video
Can we get a review on the shimano slx reels?
I will have to check them out! Any SLX reel in particular that you’re interested in or just the standard slx?
I have been looking into the slx 150 it's $99 at the local bass pro.
Hi! Is it good for deep crankbaits? ( Medium Heavy version)
The medium heavy version definitely would have enough backbone. The only thing I would be concerned about is whether or not it will cast far enough to get you as deep as you want them to. However, you could probably get by with a small diameter line to get those casts out a little further?
does it come with fishing line?
Mine didn’t come with line, some stores may sell it with line though!
Been messing with this thing for over an hour. I *cannot* get it to cast at all. Guess I'll be returning it.
You may have to tighten down the knob on the side, and the brake on the other side. Tighten it down so when you cast it won’t go very far, once you get more adjusted to it without birds nesting, then slowly undo the knob so you can start casting farther. Baitcasters can be difficult if you’ve never used one, do you have anybody that you know that could help you learn how to use it?
@@InlineOutdoors I'm using the line that came on it. I tried adjusting both dials on either side, but I have idea what they're for, or how they are supposed to be.
No matter how I adjust it though, every cast just flings hard to my left, no matter what, and the line in the spool becomes a complete mess, no matter what.
Im at a cabin with my family. None of us a fishermen. The other style reels we bought work fine, but they aren't strong enough.
Big fish keep snapping the line.
@@LastBastian Mine didn’t come with line on it. In my experience, the line that comes on reels is usually twisted, old, and frail. I would recommend getting new line for it. I think I have a link to some power pro in the description. If you can find that stuff in stores, I would recommend it. It’s much more forgiving than the monofilament line that comes with most reels.
@@LastBastian Also, the dial is to adjust the brakes on the reels. If you turn it up all the way, it should reduce back lashes. The knob by the handle, is the spool tensioner knob. It adjusts how easily the line spins off the spool. Try tightening that one a bit as well until you get the hang of it. What kind of baits are you throwing with it? (Sorry if this information overload lol)
@@InlineOutdoors Tried a lure at first, but when I realized it wasn't working, I just stuck a sinker on while trying to figure it out...
Sorry, my daughter just caught her first fist just now on one of the other poles! A catfish. I had to stop and help, just cleaned it. 👍
Anyway, my wife and have both been watching videos and messing with this rod for a while now. See.s like maybe you're supposed to keep your thumb on the line/spool at all times?
Even when switching hands and feeling in?
Either way, simply will not cast no matter what we've tried. It flings hard to the left, when it comes out at all. And it rats nests, or birds nests every time. ???
I can loosen the tension all the way, and the line still doesn't come out very well. We keep straightening out the line my manual walking it out, one person hiding the pole, the other walking away with the line.
But as soon as we cast, it's ruined again instantly 🤷♂️
$40 at Walmart now
My wife brought me one home last weekend she said she seen a frenzy in the fishing isle and she grabbed one to see if I would love it... ❤ yes I do
I'm glad that every company doesn't use the same material for the stuff. That' mean there not made in the same factory 🏭 would be 💩🤫
I got this setup. Use braid. This reel does not cast far at all. Not worth buying. Get a Shimano instead !!!
For a $40-$50 combo I feel like it’s a pretty great setup for someone to get into baitcasters. Maybe doesn’t give you the best range but people who are new to baitcasters usually don’t want to spend a lot.
I Think It Will Turn People Off To Bait casters. Or at least explore a different Brand.
