Had mine for almost 3 years now. Use it mainly for flipping a jig. I’ve also used it for swimbaits on Stripers. To this day, it still runs smooth. Just gave it a few drops of gear oil once, twice a year. That’s it.
I think I'm going to trust this guy's review. I've never seen someone so consistently and effortlessly place his casts, one after the other. I know he flat out knows how to fish.
I see these things EVERYWHERE and have always wondered how well they perform. I would love a few cheap rods as backups that I know I can count on. Good to hear they are quality.
I have been using several different Lew's reels but I'm going back to my Picifun Torrent reels. They cast smoother and longer and they are quiter. Your review reminded me how good the Torrent is.
@@TooFatToHuntOutdoors I have four Torrent baitcasting reels and I thought the Lew's were the best for me, but the Torrent reel casts farther, is quieter, and smoother than the Lew's reels. Can't beat them for the money.
Thank you for the great Vid. I have a Shimano SLX and Quantum Smoke S3 PT and those reels aren’t too bad. Got in to Bait caster reels sometime early of last year and loving it. I have this Piscifun torrent in and out now from my Amazon cart 😂 but after watching your review it helped me decide on it, I’ll give it a shot. Here’s to your new subscriber. Cheers from Cali!
Thanks man!!..appreciate it!..i have a few high end reels as well, and still use this just as much!..just make sure you put oil in it right away, they come dry
I just ordered mine. I'm fairly new to baitcaster reels. So far I like them. I started out with a right handed one but I figured since I've been fishing spinner reels since I was a kid why not try a left handed baitcaster. Great video 🙂
I have 2 of those and they are a workhorse of a reel I love them and now they have a Torrent 2 just an upgraded version of the original, so now I have 2 Torrents 1 Torrent 2 and one Phantom and every reel I have gotten from Piscifun have been awesome reels and I also have a 7’6” heavy action Torrent rod and that rod is awesome too
Thanks for this review. I know now I made the right choice on brands that I’m deciding on with amazon baitcaster reels. Hopefully it will step up my channel. Cheers
@@TooFatToHuntOutdoors I'm using this as a newbie to baitcasting. It looks like a good choice for the price. It doesn't seem cheap at all. 31 bucks? Love that price...had to have it. Thanks for the update.
I admire the community you're building You're the first youtuber to respond to a comment i made and for that sir you get this Northern Hispanics subscription Sir
I just ordered a 5.3:1 version. I like cheap stuff that's good, and I've heard nothing but good about these reels. Should be in tomorrow, and the weather should be good for it.
@@TooFatToHuntOutdoors I took it out today and no complaints! Once I got it dialed in, it worked great. No fish on it yet though, my KastKing Zephyr stole the show in that regard today.
Thanks for the review. I just ordered one and I am waiting for it to be delivered. I need to figure out how to cast like that. With a big swing I can get the bait out there but when I try to flip it out like that I get a backlash every time. I guess it's all in the thumb but I haven't figured it out yet.
You betcha bud!..make sure you put oil in it, they come dry...i have a video called how to flip and pitch a jig...check it out...its all about weight transfer....👊👍
You have to dial it in right. Watch a video about it if you don’t know what I mean. You have to adjust the tension knob for each lure and you just set the Brakes to how far you wanna cast pretty much. 0 is the lowest which is where you’ll cast the furthest but also have way more backlashes because since there’s no brakes the spool will just keep spinning if you don’t thumb it properly, and vice versa for the highest number on your brakes dial. 20 won’t be able to cast near as far but it’ll also be almost impossible to back lash
Alls I can say that I’ve been fishing most of my life! (I’m 48) I’ve had sooooo many brands of baitcasters! I’ve grown to love Garcias. As I’ve aged I’ve started to experiment with various, off brand names, to see if there’s a hidden gem out there for the best bang for the buck! The first “off brand” I tried was Kastking. From the Royal legend, Stealth, and Speed Demon. And, unfortunately I’ve had issues with all 3 models. The Royal legends are horrible for cast control, my legend turned into a grind box, and both of my speed demons anti reverses failed. So, next I decided to give Piscifun a shot! Firstly I bought a couple of Torrents and loved them, then bought a couple of Phantoms, love them, and bought one phantom X that ended up grinding out on me that Piscifun took care of. The Torrent is undoubtably the best bang for the buck out there! Still smooth and casts phenomenally! The way I look at it is that all reels wear out! Many after only a few years of steady use! So, if a reel performs amazing with smoothness, casting, and durability for at LEAST a couple years at the best price point then that’s a winner for me! Without a doubt the Torrent is a winner!
@@TooFatToHuntOutdoors thanks; I did ordered one Piscifin avter watch this video, I did trying two old ones , and got problems with lines., so i will install 14 pounds mono and try one more time...
Good deal!..it just takes time to learn...keep your brakes around 6, and you cast control set to where your lureslowly drops...start with east side casts, and don't worry about accuracy...slowly advance....make sure you add some oil to the port on the torrent reel too...
I have always said the best reel is the one you have on your rod so long as it does what you need it to do. Just because a reel is $200 doesn't mean it's the best there is if you can't use it. I learned I don't like those bait casting reels long long ago. I spend too much of my day trying to get rats nests out of the darn things.😂😂👍💯
I have one of these rods, just the rod itself i had an abu garcia black max reel that i paired with it . The accent colors match and it looks pretty slick . But for the price i really like the rod ive had it for about 6 months and paired with the black max reel its a pretty sweet setup i can throw some really light gear and get some nice distance. I also like how balanced it feels and its pretty sensitive its easy to feel the bite and also feel what your lure is doing in the water . I plan on getting another black max reel and another torrent rod so i can have an extra setup and keep it rigged differently. How would you say the picifun reel compares to the abu garcia black max . I really like thoes reels for the price . But the torrent is 20 dollars cheaper and im always down to save some cash . Would you say the two are comparable.
Sometimes lighter line will snap...when fishing heavy cover like pads, timber...its nice to have that heavy line to get them out...plus you might have 40 pounds of moss come in with the fish!...thanks man!
I have one of these. What little use I've put it through, I would tend to agree. However, I believe most of these reels (Piscifun, KastKing, Abu Garcia Black Max, etc.) will do fine in freshwater use. The "reel test" will be how will they stand up to salt water use with moderate care (good rinsing after each use). They survive two years of this use and they'll really have something.
Have that reel and torrent rod in my wish list on amazon. Building my arsenal over this winter to be ready for spring. Wife and i just bought a Sun Tracker Fishin Barge this past May now to start adding to my arsenal.Great video and review Thanks
You betcha!!..thanks for watching!!..I love the reel, might try the rod too...heard good things...have fun with the fishin barge, they are sweet...best of both worlds!!..
Nice video do all Piscifun reels when ordered and upon arrival do they all need to be oiled/ greased that’s all I hear you have to oil them before use ? 🤷♂️
Thanks man!!...I suppose you wouldn't have to oil it b4....I fished with mine once before oiling it, it worked fine...but it's always good to oil any reel!!👊👊
I have a 7” medium ugly stik casting rod. Will the torrent pair up nice with that rod? I’m a beginner but I’m partial to ugly stik so I’d like to keep using it. Heard a lot of good things about the torrent.
do you think this reel would complement a 8' light action Kokanee rod calling for 4-8 lb mono and tossing between 1/8oz (3.5g) -- 3/4oz (21g)? I need a solid baitcasting reel for this unit but I'm not sure if the torrent is too large for it. Please advise. Thank you.
Recently got one. I was very happy with it but unfortunately I quickly started having some problems with it. It was stopping itself, squealing, noisy and wouldn’t cast well. This could have been my fault. I’ve had it for a week now, its cool but got some problems. Maybe I got a lemon?
Did you add oil in the oil port?..there is a large screw on the reel, take it out, add a few drops of reel oil...they come empty...that should take care of it...thanks for watching!
Too Fat To Hunt Outdoors I considered it. I wasn’t sure if it was the case since it was only a week old. Maybe the brakes. It’s starting to ease of and cast smoother now anyways. Break in? Also, what oil do you put in there? Thanks for the advice!
@@skii_two idk what your supposed to use but I use the leftover settled (clean) engine oil in the bottles, and leftover marine grease in the tube for the boat trailer 🤣👍
I keep it on my buzzbait rod...fluorocarbon sinks, and with fishing a topwater bait, that's not really ideal...plus I fish it in some really heavy cover and I like the braid..thanks man!
I'm not sure bud, I've never ordered from them directly...I've only ordered there products through Amazon...they are all prime, so I get the reels in 2 days...try that....thanks man!
@@TooFatToHuntOutdoors mainly im wondering about the initial use. I just opened up this reel out of the box and would like to start off its life with proper care. Should I take it apart and grease it or am I good to just drip a few drops into the port?
@@TooFatToHuntOutdoors thank you for the fast reply. There website had shown a video of it being taken apart and greasing the gears as it doesnt come pre greased so I just wasnt sure. Any recommendation on brand of oil?

Very good review. I appreciate the fact that you did a lot of casting, which shows the quality of the Piscifun Torrent reel.
Thanks man!!..I still use this same reel on a regular basis...4 years and no issues. Fishing 4-5 days per week
@@TooFatToHuntOutdoors That speaks well for your fishing and for the Piscifun Torrent reel. I plan on using mine this week in southern IL.

For sure bud!!..I fish 3-5 days per week, and 6-10 tournaments per year...never had an issue with it in 2 years!!😁
Kudos to you sir for being able to cast with your left and reel with your right. Also yeah those reels are awesome
Thanks bud!!..appreciate it!!..it took me a long time get the hang of that!!..alot of time spend flipping in the yard!!👊
They also have the 5:3:1 ratio which I prefer a slower reel when I'm cranking. Mostly shallow cranking where I fish.
Yes sir!...I use the same for cranking....good reels for the prices
Own 2 of these reels, love them, have them on med-heavy rods
Good deal!!!..they are a great reel for the price!!...zero issues!!
Have you taken them apart to grease them or only used the oil port?
Bought one last year, caught some big fish on it also here in Wisconsin! Still works like it's brand new. I paired it up with a lightning rod.
Nice!!....mine is still the same almost 3 full seasons now....good deal man!!..👊
Bought a couple as inexpensive gifts for casual fisherman friends. Impressive for the price. I like the dual level wind supports and the oil port.
Yes sir!..going on my 4th year with mine and I am still impressed!
Great video I got one and I love it still can’t beat the price my favorite part of the reel is the oil port
Heck yeah bud!!..that port is handy!!👊
