I have the old version of that (6'9") and this one is on order. These are amazing combos.. I honestly prefer these to most I have used in a long time.
Grabbed mine at Walmart awhile back for 80 SMH, but it's one of my best rod reel combos I have
Just picked one up for $40 after watching the vid. thanks. I’ve been looking for a budget bait caster to learn on I’ve always just used spinning reels
Good stuff! Hope you have a great week and thanks for watching.
I just bought one in clearance for $40 at my local Walmart. Thanks for the good info Pal’
Our pleasure. Thanks for watching let us know how it works out for you.
I bought mine for 75
Got mine for 35
I just when to Walmart last weekend and I end up with 4 of them great combo and the price was perfect I have all bunch of lews the I spend alot of money on them the quality is good it have a smooth reel feeling I only pay $30 ea $120 4 combos can't beat that very happy with this and I can tell you 10 out of 10 everything looks good strong and good quality mine are 7' go out and find this combo
That’s a great score. Mine has held up great. Even caught a few big stripers on Lake Hartwell last weekend.
$75 here in NY, except one Walmart near me has a sale for $45. I bought a Ozark Trail otx baitcaster for $65, because I didn't wanna pay the $75. Then seen it for sale when I went to another Walmart last night. So I'm thinking of returning the Ozark Trail otx for this one. I have a abu garcia black maxx and love it.
Blackmax is great combo, but if you can return it and get the vengeance I would. I caught a 5 pounder last week on mine on a Texas rigged Senko
@@greatamericansurvival I think I'm going to, the Ozark Trail otx is nice don't get me wrong it cast great. But I know how well Abu Garcia is, and don't know much about Ozark Trail. I'm afraid it's gonna break on me when out fishing. As I know my black maxx won't, as I've caught a few heavy fish on it last year. Just sucks the gear inside got torn up somehow. But then again it was my first baitcaster, and didn't know you're supposed to oil them.
@@greatamericansurvival I returned it, and got the vengeance with the Rapala lures package for 45 bucks. Definitely happy, because bass pro wants 100 for it. Tomorrow I'm going out on my kayak fishing to try it out. Any advice for how to set it up to catch some good bass?
That’s awesome, you’ll be much happier with this setup. What kind of kayak do you fish out of? What state are you in, I’m in Georgia near Athens.
@@greatamericansurvival I have a Pelican motion angler 100x, and I'm in Upstate, NY
The only time I break anything on my rod's is when I hit the tip on the garage or car door. I go to Wal-Mart and buy the tip repair kit. 5 minutes of trouble. Let it dry over night. Boom. I am fishing again. I have never broken a rod. Except for the tip. Shawn.
Hey Shawn
How do I cure ED?
Same dilemma I have hitting them against the wall lol
Where did you find it for $20? It’s $75 in round rock Texas I’ll get then to price match lol
What Walmart had it for that cheap? Here in upstate SC it’s $75. It’s on sale right now for $60 in the Walmart app.
I still have my first ambassador 5500c that I bought in 1978, I have 4 of them plus 2 4500 2 5000 1 5500c3 and a 6500c
Nice. Great reels, I know my uncle used them a lot fishing the American and Sacramento River.
@@greatamericansurvival yeah, I'm probably older than your uncle. I'm old school.
I'm always useing Abu Garcia for baitcasting but spinning I would use Pfluger
Agreed pflueger makes some great stuff.
@@greatamericansurvival Yup, not big on spinning but i have some cheaper Pfluger Trion , a 20 and 30 size are awesome. My low budget cheap Ugly Stick 4'7" combo hauled a ton of perch out of Lake Erie!
I bought 4 for 30 here in ny I have a tackle problem I did the same with the shimano caius I watch for deals I’ll never personally use them as I have higher end gear but something tells me I’ll be that grandpa and dad that makes it hard for people when you pass away 🙃🙃🙃
That’s funny. I’m the same way. Bought a Caius then found 3 for $30 each and bought them all.
@@greatamericansurvival knowing what I know now I cherish those yard sale finds and just think about what situation that person was in and I pass along a white tail not sure if you’ve seen the movie big fish but that’s me 🤣
I bought 1 last week at Walmart while I was casting at a pond the end of the pole snapped I guess that’s what I get for shopping at Walmart lol
Same thing happened to me! I set the hook on a monster and it snapped 2-3 inches from the tip.
The biggest negative about buying anything from walmart the people don’t give a dam. I had a Lews rod shipped to my house and the rod tip was broken and it wasn’t even in the package. Meaning it was broke when they packed it up to ship out.
I just ordered me one
Black and grey win grips would have made this that much better, I like the Lews xfinity bait caster better for that and the faster retrieval but this one is 2nd or 3rd in my collection of bait casters, not gonna spend $200 for a combo when these do just as good as those higher end combos
Just got 3 of them
I got it and I can’t figure it out and it keeps tangling up on the string
So would you recommend at $75 and then swapping out for a 30 lb braid?
Good choice, I swapped out the Mono for 12 lb Flouro but have considered put on 30-50 lb braid. If you do let me know how it works for you. Thanks for taking time to comment. Cheers.
Like my friend, big hug direct to Rio de janeiro - Brasil
I just picked one up in central Illinois for $40.
That’s awesome. Let us know what you think about it after you try it out.
You should get a "dead cat" for your mic...wind sound was louder than your voice, other than that...good video, informative.👍
im new to baitcasters would this be a good beginner baitcaster rod?
Yes. Abu makes some great combos.
i just picked this combo up saturday and its my first baitcaster and abu garcia and its missing the brake knob
Brake knob? Do you mean the cap for the tension knob? Either way email Abu they will probably send you one.
This one or the Max STX?
I like abu garcia ❤
I picked one up at Walmart for $25 a few weeks ago. I figured for the price, why not add another combo to my arsenal. For the price, I like it. Landed a 2lb 11oz largie with it. My only complaint is the reel is not comfortable in my palm. Kinda feels like an edge is digging into my palm above the brake dial. But I'm happy with it for what I paid.
Damn that’s cheap. It’s going for $75 where I’m at in California.
@@671TechReviews ya no way. it's $75 here too...
Ayo man dont worry about birds nest jsyn that line is pretty bad i switched to 20 pound braided and it works SMOOOVV
Exactly. I’m not a big fan of mono to start with. Thought about seeing if I can throw some frogs around on like 30-40 pound braid. I don’t usually go down to 20 it’s so thin I’ll backlash and days over for that reel.
@@greatamericansurvival yeah ima get some 40 pound braid soon but i had to improvise on the go, and all i had was some 20
I waited for this to hit clearance at Walmart $28.13
I just ordered one for $80 and found this video, I wish I could have got it for 20
They are harder to find now, but still out there. Lots of them on Marketplace where people are buying up 20-30 at a time and selling them for 67-75$
Just bought one a few days ago for $35
That’s an awesome price.
what state are you in. i’m in texas and they’re 75$
Georgia. Near Athens. They are Not $20.00 now, $75-80 bucks now still a good price Basspro charges $100. What part of Texas?
Is the rod strong enough to fish jigs on it
I would go over 1/2 oz. But I love fishing Texas rigged senkos on it and shaky heads. Let us know how it works out for you.
Cheers
How do you set the drag
The star next to the crank arm..
@@greatamericansurvival ok, but do you have to push anything in, because mine just turns, when you feel it in
Copped one for 190$ it’s a great rod so I went back and got 5 of them
I hope that’s supposed to say $19 not $190 great combo for $20. This combo sells at Karl’s for $100
Did you say $20? I just paid $55 for mine
I paid 10 lol
I paid 75 lol
I just got one for $12 on clearance at Walmart.
Skip this one people!i got it yesterday 10 casts ot broke.its glued on and not threaded on where youd nornal tighten to hold the reel.haf mine 3 hours and returned it
That sucks. Only issue I had with mine so far was had to replace the line. Put 12 pound Flouro carbon on it. I’ve heard a lot of horror stories, of the being damaged when purchased from Walmart. Anyone else have an issue like this let us know.
I got a few for $10
For $10 and have had to buy a few also. When back after testing it out and they are $75 now. So huge score.. let us know how it works for you.
Yea that first back lash is the reason I won’t consider baitcasters.
I understand that it can be such a pain while fishing. But I will say that once you get them dialed in they allow you better control fish especially when fishing cover or lay downs where you need the extra backbone that you just don’t get from spinning gear setups. Thanks for watching though. What state do you live in? We are in Georgia.
$20??? I literally got mine yesterday for $80
Nuts right! My Walmart now sells them for $75.
Why is this $75 here???
That’s the price here now. But someone messaged me saying they have them for $10 at a Walmart near me we are gonna go check today.
I paid 75
Bull shit 😂20 bucks we’re that Walmart at imma head that way now
Found mine for 40 with two lures cool deal in Walmart. Goldsboro still has one for 40
