I bought that same reel and the same size as you have. Mine felt a little tight as I reeled in. Also when I'd open the bail and then want to close it to start reeling I had to give it assistance sometimes (closing the bail by hand). I emailed the company and they asked for a video of the problem. They said it's normal. I've never had a reel that it was so difficult to close the bail by starting to reel. So my experience with the company hasn't been great. I'll still keep the reel and use it, but I had higher expectations for the reel than what I got from it.
Love your reviews.They are honest a rare thing these days a few you guys i know who Smallmouth fish with them alot and really like them. I wanna try one for small river Channels and Walleye . Thanks for posting
Any thoughts now on RUNCL vs Piscifun reels? Also wondered why you loaded braided line on your RUNCL demo for perch. Next time I pass through Charlotte I hope to hook up with you for one of your guide trips. Would have done it last year but didn't realize where you were located until after I got home.
Thank YOU!! I am glad to hear that! Apparently they have a US based shipping portal. That is awesome to hear and I appreciate you sharing that with the folks here!
I bought a RUNCL Titan I a couple years ago on Amazon. The thing had amazing reviews so I gave it a try. At first I really liked the reel. A couple months in the bail started popping up when setting the hook and the reel stopped being smooth, catching near the top of the reel rotation. It was only used in my boat and was never in the rain, so not sure what would cause that. I should have returned it but forgot about it after replacing with a Pflueger President for a Canada trip. Recently ripped it apart and greased/oiled everything. Haven't tried it yet, but it no longer seems to stick.
I've got the Runcl scale, and have their braided line on several reels in several different lb test and have had 0 issues. Just got my nephew one of their spinning reels for Xmas for one of his catfish setups, looking forward to seeing how it holds up
Great review brother . They have contacted me as well and will be testing a baitcaster out for them and review it on my channel . White perch one of my favorite catfish baits 😎👍 . I've used some line from RUNCL . My scale has a tape measure as well . Awesome gift from the family. Good vid 😜🤘

Sorry to hear about your loss. I’m sure your grandpa would be glad to hear you want to keep fishing! Here are some videos to watch: th-cam.com/video/RhlJ9NZ9rrI/w-d-xo.html
Great content, I really should be reading the comment section before I make any decisions...LOL!!! Went to there web site looking for a Spinning Reel and bought a baitcaster instead....:))
I have the 5000 and 6000 series of this reel and they are fantastic. They are smooth casting and reeling. The the body is all metal. Both of them have a 44 lb drag with 5 carbon fiber washers. You can spend double the price of these and not do better.

You bet man. Happy to help your channel.
They sent me the 3000. I would have preferred the 5000 for Catfishing. I agree, it is a good product
Thanks for sharing Dieter God Bless my brother

Thanks Dieter. Bout to buy a REMIEL reel. made me feel better about the purchase.
Also what is a good cheap striper rod?
Awesome! Keep us posted on how it performs.....
@@DieterMelhorn Yessir. Love the big drag. Mostly a bass angler, but I'm all power: Crankin', Jigs, Froggin' so this reel should do the job.
