Just bought the 7000 gold brilliant reel, bought it off amazon. But be careful penn advert shows it in a case with spare spool, but it actually comes in a cardboard box with one spool
Hi, I haven't fished the area you have mentioned before. But this should be a good option for pier fishing. Just be mindful of how much space you have behind you. If it's a bit tight, then you might want to go for a shorter rod (10 feet) as you don't really need to get greater distance if fishing from a pier. Hope this helps. 👍
@@x3mgrifter nasa East Midlands kasi ako minsan lang maka.fishing kapag nagyaya mga barkada. Nuong una, nanghihiram lang ako mga extra rod at reel nila. And now, ang set ko penn rival longcast at shakespeare sigma supra. Mackarel and coalfish lng nmn kinukuha namin..ahaha😅😂
Thanks! Which exact part of the spool do you need the diameter for? Reason I am asking is because it is a tapered spool so diameter varies. I currently have my spools loaded with line at the moment so I'll be able to check for you next time I respool with line.
Thanks, Paul! I was actually looking at both reels that you have mentioned before purchasing this. (Is it too obvious from all the fishing gears I have reviewed so far that I love Akios!?) However, I needed a smaller reel to accommodate a lighter setup for lure fishing but can also handle surf fishing setup. Otherwise, all great reels.👍

Hi Ray! Berkley Prospec Saltwater Monofilament. The last cast is the only one with braid. You can check the unboxing video that I did for this reel as I have included there when I have lined this reel with the Berkley Prospec.
@@mrlittlemouse1 I haven't been able to measure it on the field, but I was getting 100m to 130m of 'line out' with bait on an easy off the ground cast when I had it spooled with multicolor braid (10m per color). So I would say around 50m, realistically speaking.
Got the rival 8000 myself and loving the smoothness!!
I would have gotten the 8000 as well but since I have the Okuma Surf 8K, i just couldn't justify the purchase. Really cracking reel, though. 👍
A penn with live line feature may be worth a try
Hmm. How much is the line capacity ? Promo pics looks like it's a 10th of normal capacities.

Hi, mine actually came with a sparespool but without the case. Here in the UK, the case is bought separately.
this is vibin
Hi, could please tell me the size of the reel case you are using. Nice videos. Thanks
Thanks for watching. Internal measurements of the case is 26x17x13cm. Hope this helps!
Hi Mate!
Just new to surf/beach casting/fishing..
Wanna ask if this set up can also be good at pier fishing like New Castle south/north shields area?

@@x3mgrifter salamat sa pag.reply..
Ganda ng nitron rod wrap mo may flag reps pa..👍
No worries! Sarap ding gamitin nung nitron. Di nga lang sensitive ang tip. Ipon ulit para makabili ng bagong blank. Hehe 👍

Naku dyan yan nagsisimula. Wait mo hanggang sa makahuli ka ng bass, cod, rays, sharks, etc. 😁
Good video! Do you know the exact diameter external of the spool?

Try the Akios Fury with an Akios Airloop R8 or the Akios Fury reel. Much better. Regards Paul

I have 2 of the fury reels they are terrible 1 bail arm broke of and the line lay is shocking
