I like versatility too and for this purpose, didn’t buy the reel but bought the 800s spool only for my 2021 Alpha sv tw : one reel, two spools, and versatility from Light to Medium Heavy applications 🙂
Thanks for the video. I know this is an old video but are the discount codes still active?
Have you noticed a hole cut out on the inside of the reel near the line guide, forward of the spool? It would be on the opposite side of the handle side. My alphas sv tw (non-shallow spool) has it, and I’ve noticed it in other videos as well. I’m concerned that saltwater would be misted into that opening while casting, and i’m worried it can get saltwater in the frame, getting into the brake dial, side-plate bearing, spool rotor, etc. Have you had any problems using it on saltwater?
Great Vid... I know this vid is a year old , but I just stumbled on it, I picked up my SV TW 800-S about 6 months ago, Luv it, I have it on a 7' 1" Gomexus, medium/fast rod, rated 8# - 15# line & 1/8 - 5/8 oz lures. I have it spooled up with 10# Trilene Big Game mono, casts like a dream and very smooth retrieve. I use this set-up as an all-round , do everything combo... spinnerbaits, chatterbaits, jigs (up to 3/8's) T-rigged worms & creature baits , weightless flukes, it's just so versatile. Anyways great vid !!
I love my 800s IMO it does not need a bearing upgrade and it is very hard to induce a backlash
100% agree
What line are you using?
Great real.
I agree no need for a bearing upgrade it does what I need.I can cast comfortably 3.9g crank I prefer it to my 21 zillion which I bought to sight squid.
I Paired the Alphas with a blazon 68bfs 12lb sunline braid and 8lb leader.
Hi man! I mostly throw between 5/12g lures from shore, 90% Carolina rig and a bit of other rig stuff. Which reel would u advice?
Hey im sorry lookin for advice shoud i take alphas sv tw or curado m, lookin for an upgrade. Thank you
Did you text the reel at the lake, how did it cast and how many bearings
Can't wait to see you put this reel into action on some Redfish. Looking for a reel for the old18 Bouancy UL I just ordered for bass and panfish...How would you stack this against the Diawa gekkabijin or Shimano Aldebaran for BFS duty? Will be mainly fishing from shore. What would be your choice?
It’s not a BFS reel. It’s a versatile reel that can throw finesse and heavier lures if needed. Aldebaran BFS and Gekkabijin can’t do that.
thanks for review, what your opinion compare to metanium 20 and zillion 21 sv tw ?
Which one you prefer Pepsi or Coca Cola, same thing you can’t go wrong with any of those reels besides if you’re just biased on brand name
Going into December, is there a current coupon code for Digitaka? Thanks for your reviews.

@@RXAngler and how about any codes now?
This would be the perfect reel of it had a clicker🙃
how long does it delivery take from when you order
3-7 business days.
@@RXAngler in your opinion should i order the alphas or the HFR. I hit up the Trinity river at PK, and im looking for a bait cast i can get down stream
Daiwa lang sakalam mate. Nice video
Thanks!
Question,,,,,,, for fresh water small lakes ,,,, Brazos/ river / your opinion this reel paired with what rod and line. Let’s also throw in what lures. I don’t mind asking for a little help. I’ve always Fly fished this is a totally new animal for me, I can cast this type of reel no problem. No bird nests ? 👍👍. I like being diverse. It’s all good. Thanks for any help 🙏
As long as you have it tuned and with correct rod and line, you should have no problems. It’s an excellent choice for freshwater use.
@@RXAngler thanks I appreciate the input. PS love your channel and the Texas gulf coast. ❤️
No reel is backslash free, if whoever says this or that reel is backslash free, they’re lying, it’s just advertising and even worst is that it’s false advertising
Can this model be used as a bfs reel?
I would recommend the gekkabijin air or aldebaran bfs instead.
Your my favorite fishing channel
Much love
I have one I love it it cast a mile
nice!
I like to throw baits like wacky rigs or flick shake on a baitcast. But I'm still fishing submerged grass so I need enough drag power and line weight to pull the fish away from the grass.
I have the Alphas SV TW 800HL and I tried it for the lighter stuff. It did not cast them as well as I'd hoped. Maybe putting Hedgehog Air bearings in it would solve this? My Curado 70k MGL would out cast it with those baits. The JDM Metaniums are even better. I have no experience with the 800S, so maybe the shallow spool would have done the trick? I like my Alphas though and I use it on my shallow squarebill rod.
I just bought the Metanium Shallow Edition (used your code, thanks!) and wow is that thing light. 5.8 oz I beleive. BTW, the Met shallow has an aluminum gear VS the brass gear in the Alphas.
Glad the Metanium Shallow Edition is working out for you. Thanks for the support.
I had a 70 mgl curado, but when I got my 150mgl I saw it does everything the 70 can do and then some.
I am becoming less and less impressed with my metaniums (shallow and not shallow). I need both those reels to do what a single Zillion or even my curado 150mgl can do.
I love buying gear. It is very hard to go wrong with quality reels today. We are living in an amazing time for gear junkies.
@@ETuss713 I have a JDM Zillion. Great reel. It just comes down to what fits/palms better in my hands. The Alphas palms very well for me. The Zillion (and the Tatulas I have) are wider in the front.
@@jello7281 I understand the palming feel. Unfortunately, I'm only talking about performance. Performance is first for me.
Never had a backlash on my zebco 33?🤣🍺🏴☠️
😳
Thks RX Angler, Digitaka now has no more reel instock.
Nice!
Im one of the first to buy gear just to buy it, but to be honest, I see zero reason for this real. It doesn't do anything the zillion can't. The zillion can damn near bfs.
Edited to say: I understand it's about $60 less than a zillion. If ypur ordering from Japan and don't spring for a Zillion because it's 60 more, we are very different people.
Also, for this cost, buy a Curado 150mgl. It compares to zillion. Its a phenomenal reel for 200.
Yeah I agree. I even sold my new metanium after receiving the zillion. Metanium didn’t do anything the zillion couldn’t. Plus zillion palmed better for me.

@@Cjmm007 I have bothe the newer metanium and the shallow edition. I like buying gear. It takes both of those metaniums to fill the role of one of my zillions. Funny enough, the Curado 150mgl is the same type of reel as the zillion. Both toss very light tackle very well and both toss heavy tackle like topwaters and corkies very well. The metaniums do one thing excellent, but they aren't an all around versatile choice.
@@ETuss713 for sure. Don’t get me wrong the metanium is a great reel. I just didn’t need it after I recieved the zillion. I’d rather get a dedicated bfs reel or something
I prefer the Alphas to my zillion each to their own.
will this work for bfs
No
Looks like there’s someone else that added a clicker to the reel
I may go that route too
oh no way. you should be fly fishing exclusively then you would never have to deal with that bullshit ever again
No such thing that a bait casting reel won't backlash, they all do , u still need to put ur thumb on the spool lightly, stop lying to us 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
Usei e não gostei. Arremeço muito ruim.
