    Final update: this little reel is the little engine that could th-cam.com/users/postUgkxSlytCJqozTF7EbdP4LWP-HUXf9WRDJ0e . It performed flawlessly and was easy to adjust drag in the moment while I was battling a 35lb bat ray behemoth. Mind you, this reel is spooled with only 25 lb braid and 25 mono topshot. It's paired with the kastking telescopic heavy power rod and the two work well together. This has now earned my respect and confidence when traveling and fishing. If you have ever hooked into large rays and sharks, you know they pull extremely hard and can run forever! This thing clamped down on the fish and was easy to adjust during the fight. It has a nice decently fast retrieve as well. Twice the fish went on mad runs and I was able to gain back line quickly to avoid spooling.

    May I suggest you change from the uni to uni knot, to the Albright- to join the leader to braid. They are just as easy to tie but thinner through the guides. I noticed your knot on the fathom 15 combo..I just made this change...on the exact combo, with even the same Spiderwire blue camo...cheers. It is also a more beautiful looking knot...

    • @LocalKnowledge

    Dear Mr i see all videos and i wat buy a Penn to fish big tuna with live bait or maybe popper. I have a Saragossa 18K, but is is small for some tunas i catch i fight 3 or 4 hours with it. I want something more strong, and i thinking a conventional reel like Fathon lever drad 30 or lever drag, but lever drag is possible to casting?
    I fish in Oil Ships in Rio de Janeiro Brasil, and we fish a big tuna more than 180 pounds, what kid of penn i need to buy? And i ask Lever drag reels can i casting 30, 40 or 50 meters, without backflash? Or i need to buy the reel like Avet MC lever drag with magnetic? Thanks

    • @LocalKnowledge
      @LocalKnowledge  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You can cast a lever drag for sure. It doesn't go as far as a spinning reel but it will go 50 meters plus no problem with some practice. The PENN Fathom 30 or 40N woudl be my choice paired with a 60-100# rod that is 8' long. Check out the PENN West Coast series rod. They have a few options in this range. Good luck!

    • @LocalKnowledge

      When we talk about line weight we are usually talking leader weight or the mono/flouro. If you are fishing 80# braid you're probably fishing 80-130# leader. For that I'd suggest a PENN Torque 60 or an Interational 12/16. Hope that helps.

    Great video, but I'm trying to get into bait caster reels for the maximum line capacity they have, and I'm not sure if this is the place I need to be. I use a 12 ft pole. Are these reels good for casting offshore? I need to bomb the line out far, and from what I've learned, a trolling reel is different from a bait caster? I've always used a spin reel but the line capacity does not compete with these types of reels. I'm fishing for White Sturgeon offshore, off the Columbia river in Washington. Looking for any tips that can lead me to my first official bait caster reel. Any suggestions help, and are appreciated.

    • @LocalKnowledge
      @LocalKnowledge  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      We call these a conventional reel. They do cast far for sure, especially with a rod that long. If you aren't used to casting a conventional reel, you'll need to practice to get the hang of it. Best of luck.
