- I finally got myself a Shimano reel! I couldn’t wait to try this thing out, so I took it out solo. Just the reel and a Googan Squad gold series go-to rod. I fished for about 3 ish hours only using a Texas rig. COULD OF had 12 fish…Watch to see how many I actually caught.
Reel is a Shimano SLX DC 70XG
Rod is a Googan Squad/Catch Co. gold series go-to rod
All baits used were Googan Baits brand.
Green Pumpkin krackin craw, and green pumpkin/blues lunker log.
Terminal tackle was Woo tungsten and Googan Baits brand.

“I pay money for a pretty noise” that’s the same thing I did brother.
Worth it. 😂
Dude, don’t let little stuff bother you my friend. You are outside fishing! God granted you another day. Have fun and God bless. Very nice new reel
Yep just got mine as well. XG. Love it. But i will say. The SLX MGL70 is smooth as butter and casts a country mile too.
Just got it yesterday the dc it's amazing I love it. Academy didn't have it when I ordered the normal slx and got me the dc for the same price somehow. Happy father's day to me
What! Was that online or in store? How can I get this deal!! I need details! Lol
i would've downsized hook and bait after losing that many.
If you haven't already checkout "reel test" video on TH-cam he reviews all kinds of reels but he have over 4 that will show you properly how to dial in all DC reels. Once you dial it in correctly you shouldn't have any issue with not backlashing I know I don't with my DC's.. but I will tell you this tho is you happen to lube them up before you use it, if you think line shoots out from straight outta box use, wait till you lube it before you use it man line shoots outta that thing as if you put speed spool bearings in it.. I wouldn't suggest using any speed spool bearings on any DC reel it will take away the butter smoothness on retrieving and you will hear the grinding of the gears over the DC sound. I saw reel test upgrade a DC reel with speed spool bearings. Again don't do it..
Omg dude how that is possible ? Hopefully will be great soon
The backlash was not the reels fault
No, definitely user error 😂
Enjoyed the video. The only thing that I noticed on the fish you lost was that it looked like your hook sets could have been harder but I wasn't holding the rod. RE: the rat's nest, my Diawa's aren't suppose to either but I still feather the reel just to be sure.
Your in leesburg lol
you paid way more then you should’ve, that real goes for $189 everywhere
FIRST!
Hi, check out our new bait-cast centerpin reel with patented anti-backlash brakes, smooth drag-mech and lowest start up in industry
Damn $225 for that. If look around you can get it for $160
Ik i was gonna say
I liked the video but you complain how you lose fish, but you reel them in to fast.
Its better to use monofilament...
Why do you prefer mono over flouro?
@@krankmybait It casts better has better abrasion resistance more shock resistant better knot strength much cheaper....flouro may be better for deep crank baits because it sinks but that's about it..
@@exitar1 I appreciate the info man. I’ve never really ever used mono. I’ve always used flouro or braid. I’ll give it a try 👌🏼
@@krankmybait I've never used flouro. lol. I always use mono or braid. What do you like better about flouro?
