The only gripe I have with this reel is the weight, but that goes with the size of the reel th-cam.com/users/postUgkxM68VkfsQhHaabDce1IwOCXuvumcpbZ_k . I brought this salmon fishing up in Oswego, NY. I coupled it with a Cabela's Whuppin Stick. I had no problem pulling in a 14lb salmon. I will probably use this for surf fishing this summer and downgrade to a 3500 series Battle II next salmon season to save my wrists. All of the operations are butter smooth and the bail is nice and thick and has a solid flip to it. Everything about this reel is sturdy and strong. The drag system held up to the salmon and was also super smooth. I did use a scale to set the drag properly before going out to the river and this worked out tremendously. A bunch of other guys on the river would hook up and snap almost immediately. Just because you have a good drag system doesn't do anything if you don't set it correctly.
This challenge was a pretty bloody good idea mate! Good to see you getting some love from the locals. I was fishing a while ago on a surf beach when a big thunder storm rolled in. The boss and I rounded the kids up and started heading back to the car. Lightining hit about 100 yards away and I realised I was holding half a dozen carbon fibre sticks 13 feet long. Making me the tallest thing around for a mile. Never loaded the car so fast in my life lol.
That is one of the best challenges and just shows how awesome the people in the fishing community are. Would love to see this challenge take off within the TH-cam fishing community.
That older gentleman was a hoot. Ill tell you what we all have storys to tell at 30 imagine the stories he has..lol. Thanks for the content this one was a good one. God Bless and tight lines
@@brandonle6268 That tug is definitely a drug. As a person who's quit meth, and tobacco I'll tell you fishing is a much harder habit to break so is buying tackle.
Lightning is a solid NO GO for me... When my weather apps signal lighting stuck near me I am out!! I ain't gonna stand out there with a lightning rod in my hand! Hahaha
So not true if you live in the great lakes we have salmon I mean you guys also have salmon but only Atlantic's you have to come up to Ontario in Lake Ontario I will give you a great spot for you... But yeah bass is an amazing species of fish none the less
It's awesome seeing your videos and recognizing places from 6 years ago that you held a subscriber tournament. When are the next tournament videos?!?!?
That guy he was talking to who said he got struck by lightning is there at the lake almost every day. Whenever I go there he's fishing that same spot. Nice guy!
Nice my man. Hope all is well. I wish we had fished in high school!! I love how I recognize the places you’re at. That place has a ton of pressure. But I’ve pulled some toads there. Be good my man.
I love these videos I’ve been watching your channel since like 12 yrs old I’m now 17 man I would definitely like to meet with you and fish some of my holes with you my pb is double digits
Be careful if in DC fishing with no rules, get your rod snapped in half with a shady dude saying.. well you said no rules man.lol. Great video bro. Hello to my Maryland fishermen!!.
Anyone else think it’s odd that 1rod is the only Googan who almost never uses Googan baits? I get comparing the competitors….but it puts in question how quality the baits are….
From all the "lightning / severe weather" safety classes I've been through at work, you are safer in the open and you are also safer when you are the smallest "striking point". So from training, go out to open areas whilst making yourself the smallest target possible. Avoid trees but don't go out in the open. Take shelter under a structure that is lower than everything around you but make sure you're in the open. Hope this helps 😳😳😳
i mean really the best advice would be to install an app on your phone that will alert you when lightning is approaching your location, and get inside a car or structure before it reaches you. if the lightning is close enough to see or hear, you could be struck at any moment.
I fish at that lake often. I've talked to the second guy before and seen the 3rd guy at that same spot different day (he was slaying it that day). Whopper plopper has been killing it for me at that lake so far this summer. He knows that lake well.

This 1on1 challenge with random fishermen is gold, I suggest you to continue and use this idea as a “channel series”

Not completely free though, gotta win it from me 🎣😈
@@1Rod1ReelFishing facts 😂
Hahahaaha last dude is The fooking Dude. He thought about it for a solid 30seconds and then hype af to go, he said leagooooo!
Hearing the “GET IN THE BOAT” live would be insane… 🔥
Dat Van is still waiting to whoop you in a challenge 😤😂
Lol
awesome challenge and that older guy at the end was so cool! He was knowledgeable and put that legal limit knowing if he got one it would be big!
Love the 1v1 and hearing the people.
That old guy was with the shits lol. Put a size limit it on cuz he knew he was about to lose if he didn’t
1rod is a beast. Even if he sucked at fishing, his bait choice would win it for him.
Another awesome video, keep it up Mike!! Love the content, and yes would love a pt 2!!
Awesome bass fishing is the best I started my channel 2 years ago and there is nothing better then bass even though it does eat every other species!!!
So not true if you live in the great lakes we have salmon I mean you guys also have salmon but only Atlantic's you have to come up to Ontario in Lake Ontario I will give you a great spot for you... But yeah bass is an amazing species of fish none the less
Part 2? Awesome video buddy

The run at the start was incredible.

Now you need to do that on a Trout Stream!Little Falls or Patapsco?
Is 1rod still a current member of the goof and after rejoining bc I haven’t seen him around them in a while?
That’s an awesome challenge
I feel like I know you from somewhere.

@@matthewdaw8414 lake elkhorn
Awesome challenge! Love your videos man.
1rod, u are a different breed for continously fishing in the rain. I love it
Nice my man. Hope all is well. I wish we had fished in high school!! I love how I recognize the places you’re at. That place has a ton of pressure. But I’ve pulled some toads there. Be good my man.

Be careful if in DC fishing with no rules, get your rod snapped in half with a shady dude saying.. well you said no rules man.lol. Great video bro. Hello to my Maryland fishermen!!.
LOLLL, u ain’t wrong 🤣🤣
Mike you don’t know how much I appreciate your support from you and us and your family
I love when you say get in the boat even if your on land
Really? I find it extremely obnoxious
@@brownass2 I kinda do when he says it a lot
@@Chucking_ i couldn't imagine fishing near him. All the yelling and scaring fish away. Completely unnecessary.
What about when he's on a boat and says "get on the bank"?
@@CheapAngler onstely that is fine
I love how he says get in the boat when he gets his first catch
Mike you’re dropping heat lately bro!
It’s funny because that intro was taken right outside the target I used to go to all the tome
That last gentleman really just made the video. You guys had a great interaction.
U should try fishing this place in New Jersey glouster city it’s called miller’s pond I’ve caught my biggest bass of my life in ther
Anyone else think it’s odd that 1rod is the only Googan who almost never uses Googan baits? I get comparing the competitors….but it puts in question how quality the baits are….
From all the "lightning / severe weather" safety classes I've been through at work, you are safer in the open and you are also safer when you are the smallest "striking point". So from training, go out to open areas whilst making yourself the smallest target possible. Avoid trees but don't go out in the open. Take shelter under a structure that is lower than everything around you but make sure you're in the open. Hope this helps 😳😳😳
I appreciate the advice!
So, go out to open areas but don't go out in the open. Got it⚡😖
i mean really the best advice would be to install an app on your phone that will alert you when lightning is approaching your location, and get inside a car or structure before it reaches you. if the lightning is close enough to see or hear, you could be struck at any moment.
Getting cash for telling guys to shave their balls! Youre a legend One Rod!
It’s so exiting to see that you are back on the grind
Old folks are always fun to fish with lol . They have the best stories
I got you next time Mike. Fishing above that dam or waterfall was...different lol but the manscape products are amazing!
Love your vids bro do more like this one they're bangers!
For those who are wondering, this is Lake Elkhorn and no it’s not allowed to get on the dam
For the longest time I got use to watching you I forgot I wasn’t subscribed so now I am 👍
That last guy was your biggest threat catching them on topwater - you have to find him again 👊 🐸 🎣
Liked before I even watched cause 1. Every 1rod video is ABSOLUTE FIRE
2. So happy you're uploading frequently again ❤
Nothings better then 1rod making a video
Love watch you video man keep up the great work!!
