Question...
From your nice review I assume that the 300 and 400 are both the same spool diameter, how much wider is the 400 spool than the 300?
how do adjust the freespool control?
Thanks, just bought after watching...
How’s the cast ability with these reels ? Or is it more for vertical ?
I’m on Long Island and I want an accurate bv I was thinking 400 2 speed as a reel that will do it all from catching porgy to tuna do you think the 500 would be too much ? My logic behind it is it’s a lever drag so I can set it to smaller fish like porgy but and set it higher for fluke and so on and being that the reel is only 17 oz it’ll be lighter then my avet mxl and I’ll also have 2 speed which is always good to have handy. I’m younger and want to make the right decision considering it’s a 650 dollar reel
as long as you don't tell the wife fuck it why not lol its a nice reel
Does the spool locks into place by turning the handle instead of manual flick the drag lever?
Jason Bourne I noticed you commented on two of my lever drag videos. Not a single lever drag reel in the world will lock by turning the handle. It’s physically impossible. That’s only a thing with a star drag reel
Just bought a accurate valiant 300c 2 speed and it has a clicker and it came with the clamp for only $425
yeah this is an older video my brother
Nice reel review brother , hey I like ur intro man it's cool
Hook, Line, and Sinker thanks a lot bro! I really appreciate it!
Very good review. Curious, why do you prefer lever over star drag for fluking and Tog? In particular how would this stack up against a Trinidad for togging? Thanks.
ecksdog I like having instant control over my drag when handling big fish. Also it’s just a personal preference tbh a star drag would work fine I do use them of course but I’ve been fishing for tog with a lever drag for so long it’s just the most natural to me. The last thing you want is a drag failure on a double digit tog! The Trinidad is a much smoother reel than this one in my opinion but you get a lot more drag with the accurate so it’s kind of a pick your poison type of deal.
thank you for the video, do you ever have a hard time casting with the braid? i hear braid diggs into itself. for example a tady 45 weigh about 2.5 oz so it does not spool back on to your reel tight when you wind it back , perhaps causing an issue on your next cast...also do you tie your jigs directly on to the braid? and if so what knot do you use...i tried once adding about 8 ft of mono top shot and the knot kept getting in the way as it went through the guides..thanks in advance for you time.
eli madr yeah unfortunately that’s the downside to braid. I usually wet pack it which I should probably make a video on. But basically you wanna spool the braid on wet and under heavy tension, this will make less air pockets and prevent digging. I usually use barrel swivels to leader, but the “FG” knot is the line to leader knot I prefer and recommend for any situation! The tiny diameter of the knot helps it go through the guides smoother. Check it out! And tight lines.
The digging in usually only happens to me after I pull and break a snag which I really should use a wood dowel for pulling free.
What Avet reel and rod would you use for blackfish, strippers, blues and flounder?
Randy T I don’t use avets. But if you were gunna dona perfect multi species saltwater rod I’d do an avet mxj or regular sx on a jogging world black demon
Thanks for the info! What you think of accurate tern 400 vs the boss valiant 400? Thanks
I recently bought a tern and I haven’t really gotten a whole lot of time to use it. It casts similarly to the valiant, like shit lol you gotta keep your thumb on the spoil basically the entire time but I did huck weightless eels with it and got some bass they’re pretty close in performance I feel like it’s more of a preference. If you like lever drags you’ll probably like the valiant more visa versa.
Cool man thanks for the info I guess I’ll just invest on accurate Boss Valiant 2 400 ! Stay safe. Tight Line
Bobby Monroy lemme know what you think of it. Thanks brother and tight lines!
In theory would I be able to bring in a goliath grouper on one of these reels? I mostly go for king mackerel, bonito, barracuda, ect. but sometimes I get a goliath grouper or shark on the line and I just want to know if the reel can hold up in a fight against one.
Ben H nooooooooooo. These are like Ferrari’s for striper fishing lol. I would never take a high quality reel and torture test in on giant grouper. Theoretically yes you probably could but I would never do it it’s a small reel in comparison to the larger tackle used for Goliaths
@@Fishin203 Will the 500 or 600 hold up well on 50-150 lbs fish
@@Fishin203 Thanks for the response
Ben H remember I’m not sponsored by any company in the world. I made these videos by a fisherman for a fisherman. So I can say whatever I want about these reels. So yeah I could use a pos avet single drag on a 500 pound shark and probably get it to the boat but that’s not what these reels are made for. If I were you and you’re lookin for a big fish reel I would go with a much larger reel so you’re not killing the poor thing. I love the car analogy because it’s so perfectly fitting. It’s like having a Honda vs a Ferrari they both can’t go off roading and serve the same purpose, one is just a lot more comfortable and enjoyable to drive. You can fuck these reels up if you beat on em.
Ben H and thank you for commenting I love talking to my viewers
Hey man! Quick question, how durable are the coating, do they chip or sustain scratch easily?
Benjamin Lim very good quality I’ve had em for goin on 3 seasons and only a couple small scratches from me throwin em in the back of my truck without care
Fishin203 alright thanks man for the info man!
Have u tried a distance cast with this reel? Ive been wondering how these jigging reels cast thanks n advance
P/ZO 316MIDWEST yes I have I thrown weightless eels with this quite a bit and it’s not easy. It can be done but the free spool is very loose so you basically need to keep some type of thumb pressure on the spool at all times or it will immediately backlash. But after a few minutes I got it dialed pretty well but there’s other large low profile baitcasters out there that are designed for casting that will do a much better job. This is a jigging reel and I’ll keep it in its lane lol one I can recommend is the 13 fishing A3 or actually the Okuma Komodo is real nice too for about half the price but a stainless steel gear so you get great power and integrity
Well I have few 6500s and few Penn's and even many cheaper reels. Tho these jiggin reels are so nice lookin very high drag and appear smaller then ur Penn's and Abu Garcia 7000s. So been looking into them jus beautiful lookin reel the design.
Thanks for advice guess I'll keep looking into the akios reels. No level wind for long casting. Figure since the jiggin reels didn't have level wind that maybe wud be gud at casting
Hi
Great review!!!! For the 300 size anychance you know how many yards I can get with 65lb straight braid?
Thanks
anonymous anonymous to be honest i don’t know off the top of my head you’ll have to do some math. Look up the OD of the braid you’re buying vs the OD of whatever’s on the specs for the reel
anonymous anonymous and just for clarification the “OD” means outer diameter. So like the thickness of the braid. Every braided line is different
@@Fishin203
Let's say I use powerpro 65lb? How many yards do you think I can get?
anonymous anonymous a guess? Less than 120 yards

Thanks
Hello friend, good day, I have been watching your video, I need to decide between a Valiant 300 or a valiant 500N for yellow tail fishing around 30 pounds, which of these two sizes could you recommend? I like the 300 for its size and light weight, but I don't know if it is strong enough for this fishing, I just returned an Acurrate Tern 500n since it only held 3 Yellow tails and something broke
I’d go with the 4 or 5 narrow
@@Fishin203 tanks buddy!! Cheers!
What reel do u recommend for cod haddock pollack fishing?
kobi11 depends. Are you more comfortable with a lever drag or a star drag
I’m more comfortable with starsrag because I’ve used it more but I also like level drag reels
kobi11 shimano Trinidad’s are the most comfortable star drags I’ve ever used and accurates are the most comfortable levers
Nice review.
The Texas Road Runner thank you!
which is better if you only use one of 300 or 400 to catch toutog?
Chae Rim same reel. Depends on your preference. If you don’t mind a little heavier weight in your hand get the 400.
Do they make 2 speed on 300 .!
No I don’t think so unfortunately but I have seen them so they must have been like prototypes or something.
Accurate is high maintenance reel compared with Shimano.
I love shimano too.
Hello do v300 have a double speed
Abed itani unfortunately as of right now you can’t get the 300 in a 2 speed.
can the 300 be used for porgy ?
perry dubbzz of course!
i want i want soon lol i use a stella 4000 right now need a conventional
ty bro i fish ur way often all the way to montauk i want the 400 will prob grab both
Bv2 400 or Talica 10 ii??
Anthony Sanchez haven’t used the talica so I won’t make assumptions on its performance.
Hi brooow i am from Bali, super reel OH where are i get in Bali ?
That’s sick! And I have not a clue lol probably online would be the best bet
What’s free spool do when fishing
Let's the line out
Kim Jong Un more specifically a good smooth and long spinning free spool will make longer smoother casts
Fishin203 thx bro, just bought my new avet! Your channel is sick and I love your reviews, subd!!!
Goodc review bro cool channel I'm subscribed so keep em coming I'll be watching I saw u on Texas Roadrunner shout out, Check us out sometime if u get a chance
Hook, Line, and Sinker sure thing! Thank you!
