Nice Vid mate, Really enjoyed seeing the young fellas and how keen they were on fishing at the ramp. Well done on helping them out with some quality lures.
If I happen to win I'd probably use the reel to set my Mrs up a bit better and move up from her entry level stuff.... would mean she isn't using my comp gear that she thinks is a lot cheaper than I actually paid for it as well 🤣
Little legends at the boat ramp reminds me of younger times! Hard not to help the legends out!!!!
😂
Excellent and indepth video as always Byron. I gotta say i absolutely loved how ya gave them kids the DCs. You would've made their day and possibly helped secure their angling future. GREAT STUFF indeed.
Glad you enjoyed it
I love the no line roller option, i very rarely use that function anyways and on some reels it’s the first thing to stop working after a few years of using
Mine shoud arrived tomorrow, mostly ordered because of this great review. Preiously had a nasci FB and looking forward to this one
That's another crisp little clip Byron- been missing them! Really looking forward to what you produce in the States! I'd love to match this to my 2-5kg rack raider rods, which I throw in the racks for bre, and in the sticks for bass. Currently running either Sedonas or Nascis on those rods, and this will be a perfect upgrade! Cheers mate.
My pleasure Michael! Glad you enjoyed it buddy
I just bought a couple of these, one of the major selling points for me is that this is very light and also one of the most high-end reels Shimano offers with a folding handle. Which makes it the perfect reel for telescopic rods.
Great review Bryon !
They look fantastic value , I’d be using for fishing for Bream and EP’s
Awesome Jack!
Nice looking reel. I use lower and mid price reels, they all catch fish, but I can feel the difference in using higher quality reels. I mainly chase flathead with my pb being 86cm caught on a ecogear ZX40. Keep up the good work on your reviews I have learnt a lot by watching your videos. Old fisherpeople never die, just smell like they do.
hahahaha thats a great quote!!!
Hey Byron, always appreciate your content, keep it up mate.
Just a small correction when you referred to the Nasci being made of metal, it’s actually made of a hard plastic material.
Cheers
🤟
🤟 Right on dude, thanks for the feedback! love it
Great review as always Byron. All I can see of Miravel is the lighter version of Nasci. I do have 2 of the 2500 new Nasci for my all rounder kayak setup. If I gonna use Miravel, this will be on the lighter side of my kayak setup. 1-3kg rod.
Yeah it is a nicer Nasci. Better material, they are brother and sister
Hey Byron, another sweet video! I'd use the 2500 Shimano Miravel for flicking some vibes at Flathead in Lake Macquarie. Thanks mate and tight lines!👍
Right on!
Very cool to see you helping out the kids.
This would have a myriad of uses but I’d lean towards any estuary species. Thanks mate.
ahhh mate, someone helped me once. just paying it forward. kids smash a few fish on those lures and they are hooked
Since I'm sure part of your question is curiosity, and not just the giveaway which has past, I'm going to use mine for a variety of fish that im not sure what they would call in Australia. I'm in Louisina, USA.
Part of the list is sacalait(crappie), redfish(red drum), sheepshead, speckled trout, large mouth bass, and a few types of invasive carp, if I can find them.
I'm using the 4000xg with 40lb braid.
Great vid, would love to tackle a few EP”s to put it through its paces.
Would love to use this reel for flathead fishing, amazing reviews mate, keep it up champion.
Thanks 👍
Another great review, Byron! Good on you for giving those kids a free lure to use, would of made his day!
Thanks 👍
Great review as always. Definately be chasing Flatties with this one. 👍
Aww yeah!!!! Cheers dude.
Hi Byron, thanks for the vid. Stoked about the new reel by Shimano, looks great ay. I will use the Miravel to chase breams off jetty, under bridges using grubz 😊 cheers Charlie
Thanks Charlie!!! Glad you liked the vid bud
I will use the reel foor my finesse fishing mostly for red fin pearch. Nice vid as always!
Cheers Karl
Very nice reel! Good to see that shumano is making good quality products for more affordable prices. Very tempting!
Agreed!
Loving the straight up honest reviews mate. Nice boat……. That looks pretty Schmick.
As sacrilegious as it would be. This would go perfectly on my Daiwa to zero 7”6
Great for ripping the bigger bass out of cover in the larger dams.
Hey buddddy!!!!! fancy seeing you here. Entered mate
@@ByronTeaHill indeed good sir. Wouldn’t have missed it
Another top vid Byron. Can I ask what braid that is on the Miravel please? Thanks
Awesome video and like the comparison with the nasci! I am fishing with a Shimano ix 2000r would love to have an upgrade and target some red drum!
AWesome buddy! thanks for the support!!
Great video. Informative as always. Would match this to my Shimano T Curve Flight for bream comps
Awesome Paul! Glad you liked it dude
Great to see you supporting the young ones. I'd use the miravel to keep my little one away from my vanford while she is on the hunt for bream.
Its good to see them giving it a go hey!
The reel would fill a gap in my current reel range to chase larger Flathead with a double clutch or a floating pillie for snapper. Hope these vids continue in your new home mate.
Sounds great!
Would be interesting to see if you can put your own bearing in there. The stock Shimano are only $4-$6, so if they have the same assembly but use a bush/collar, it would be awesome to be able to put it on yourself.
Interesting. Not sure to be honest but you’ve made me curious
Great vid Byron 😁 I would love the Miravel for my Saltwater setup to chase some flatties 😆
Good luck!
I’d use it for inshore fishing. Redfish, trout, flounder and looks like a great ned rig/drop shot reel.
I have a 5000XG and move it between rods here in Oregon. Surf, salmon, Ling cod, ect. Using 30lb braid, it's the only spin set up on my kayak. It is smoother than a comparably priced Penn.
great review byron love your vids. i would use this reel to chase pinkies and flathead with plastics
Cool idea
I love your videos I just recently started lure fishing because of you and I would use that reel for bread and batter fish
Glad you like them!
Great review, and I wish I could fish in Australia. With that being said for like $30 more you could get the Shimano Ultegra. You get the ar-c spool, The micro-module Gear II which is what the Stradic FL has, long stroke spool that the stradic has, X-protect that is more water resistant, SA-RB shielded bearings for salt water, and a one piece bail. The Miravel doesn’t have any of that. The Ultegra has way more tech for the money. It’s the best reel for the money in the $100-$200 range.
It's basically a Stradic FL with cI4+ body. same long cast spool,X protect, worm drive etc. 1 less bearing.
@jamesstewart2560
Too right! I just bought an Ultegra C2000S as a backup for my Vanford. I ordered from Japan and paid $152AU including delivery when the Miravel was selling locally on Black Friday for $180. Aussie prices are a joke
Loving your channel and content, Byron. I’ve really been enjoying getting into estuary fishing, finding different spots around Victoria. My wife’s been getting into it too, so I need some more gear for her before she knocks off all my lures and ruins my gear. So yeah, I need to win.
Awesome, thank you!
Good luck
Small beach / rock fishing, whiting, bream, dart and maybe an unlucky flatty. Awesome videos thanks for the info.
You bet!
what about the no line roller does that not affect it?
Hey mate! Love the channel and all your videos. They have helped me heaps! I would love to use this reel for flatty fishing! Hope to win this beautiful reel!
Glad you like them Calvin
Great video. Out of curiosity, was the line retrieve affected by the lack of line roller bearing on that reel given your glass half empty theory? If the line retrieve is not affected, would love to give it a try for the typical estuary situation . 😊
in the light game you dont really notice it with bread and butter species in australia. definitely if you go for bigger fish you may feel a difference
nice review mate, would love to add this real to my arsenal, I would use the real for light plastics fishing targeting a range of species like flathead and snapper
Nice Oli
Great review mate, this one would be a soft plastics reel for me. Without the long cast feature its use in close is warranted.
Totally agree
Great vid Byron! Would love to use this on my new ajing rod to catch live bait!
In!
Looks like a great reel for the price. I would use the reel for some estuary fishing, shoalhaven river, lake Illawarra, st georges basin. Cheers mate.
No worries buddy! Thanks for engaging with the video!
Love ya reel reviews well all reviews honest good feedback is what inlove no B.S just straight to it
This reel looks the goods the price the quality and great for that next level up reel without breaking the bank
I’m focusing on the flatheads there’s something about them that just gets my heart pumping fishing for them and this reel would suit me just right
Gonna miss these vids when u leave for ur next adventure in life🤙🤙
Nothing wrong with loving flathead Clayton!! awesome bread and butter species to target. thanks for supporting the channel dude
This reel looks great. Would love to have this one set up for flatties coming into the summer months through the lakes.
You're in!
This summer I would love to get back into my flathead fishing and would love to use a 2500 for this summers fishing😎
Noice!!!
i got a 2500 miravel last week from bass pro . it's not as smooth as my diawa BG or procyon Al . even my kastking sharky 3 is smoother than the miravel . it's going back and i'm gonna get a fuego lt . everything isn't for every thing isn't for every body . thanks for sharing dude :)
Great video as always just down get an American accent when you move o/s. I’d love to pair the miravel up with an linfeet rod to make my debut at the hobie fishing GP next month at Pittwater
I'll try hard hahahaha
@@ByronTeaHill any tips for Pittwater? I did see your name on the list too
Cracker straight up review what's your thoughts on the new Shimano expride some feed back would be great 🤙🎣
Hey mate I’ve only tried the one rod a few times. Seems like a nice rod but I need to do a little more research on the range!
@@ByronTeaHill Cheers old mate 🤙 appreciate your time and love your vids number 1 on TH-cam 🤙🎣
awesome video thinking of selling my 2500 nasci and buying this reel now. would use the reel for flathead, bream and trevally fishing.
I’d seriously give some thought to it hey dude
Recently, I was looking for a light spinning reel for very light saltwater in Brazil coat. I am looking for information for Miravel, Vanford and Strafic FL..... after you video, I need to pay more attention to Miravel.... *G* Thanks!
Great informative vid as usual. I know what you mean about keeping in mind it’s not a high end reel, comparing my rev to the nasci you notice the difference but I must say if the miravel is as nice as the nasci, seems like an absolute no brained choice. I have enjoyed the nasci although a bit heavy.
I reckon the miravel would be a great estuary reel targeting flathead and trevs.
If I somehow get selected to win, please choose someone else 🙏
Hahaha Jaymie, mate that’s really nice of you.
You’re 100% on your comments. It’s proper value for money.
Be great using it with 1-3kg rod, throwing some plastics around for bream. Love your reviews and videos mate. 🎣🎣🎣
Absolutely! Cheers legend
Reel looks great, I’d be using it to chase bream around bridges and pontoons using MMD soft prawns
a very popular lure right now hey! awesome dude
I fish for a lot of smallies and they love a Texas rig senko. I’d probably have to pair it on my dobyns champion rod for a great smallie killer combo.
Nice CJ!!!!
Super light tackle for me catching flattys down the local beach.
I'm a Daiwa fan boy so change my mind please Byron.haha
hahahahaha
Thanks man, I just bought the 4000 in the States.
Nice video just wondering if you are going to do a Shimano zodias review??
Hey mate, nah no plans for that guy
At the moment I am really getting into my ultra light tackle fishing around rocks and pontoons and I’m looking for a new reel as my old low end one just died and I’m currently borrowing my sisters😂. This reel would be absolutely perfect for me and what I do and I would probably get it in the 1000 or 2000 size with 6lb bread to chase bream and trevally and maybe even flathead every now and then🤙🏽
Mate, really enjoyed reading your comment. Hopefully you win and you can stop using your sisters gear. Haha
@@ByronTeaHill yeah hopefully, thanks heaps for the reply I really Appreciate it👍🏼
Great vid mate, would Be great to use with my light bream rod to flick plastic and topwater. 🐟
My pleasure dude! Thanks for commenting
Awesome little reel would use it for my nephew and son on the boat!
Good luck!
How much braided line did you fit on it?
Great review. Would use it to pull bream out of the snags at Hollands
🤙🤙👍
@@ByronTeaHill hey mate can you see im a member on your end?
I’m from the west coast of New Zealand and I love to fish salt and fresh water. Iv been fishing since I was 4 and I’m 13 now, my Dad and Grandad got me into fishing. I love fishing so much I’m very keen on it. I would use the reel on Trout, Perch, Carp or whatever I can catch.
Unfortunately I’m not a member. I haven’t asked my parents to join but I already know what they are going to say. My Dad thinks subscriptions are a waste of money ( which they can be ) and my Mum will just say a waste of money as well :/😢
hahaha! Blake i get it buddy, I really just appreciate the support mate. thank you for watching
I’m having issues with this reel. I bought a Miravel 4000xg right before a tournament. Feels great just reeling it with nothing attached. But when I’m reeling a bait in it feels awful. Feels like I have a 5 pound weight attracted to the line when I’m reeling in a bait. It’s extremely disappointing. Not sure if something is wrong with it or what. Do you notice something similar
I would use the reel for bream I love bream fishing on little unweighted bream prawns but the reel would be used as a crab rod for bream I need a new reel for a rod as I seized the reel on my crab rod it would fit into my style of fishing
I think I heard you say the Miravel costs $220. I paid $120. Maybe I heard you wrong. Nice review. Thanks.
when i retrive in my 1 year old vanford it feels like itsa ticking under it.. nothing without line out in the water and so... everything inside looks good and nothing looks broken.. is this common? its the 5.31 gear 2500 ..
Reel would be great as an estuary all-rounder, or a bass reel with heavier line 🎣
I think so mate. 2500 is a versatile size
I'd save it for when I come over and visit you in the States and catch some Merican fish on it... nice vid too mate
You better!
If I had the reel I would probably spool it with 8lb and use it snag bashing from a kayak for bream and perch in lancove river or the abundance of flathead there! I see people talking about putting a bearing in your self, I've replaced bushings with bearings as a fun side project BUT it's hard to buy one bearing for a good price and it ends up costing about 20$. Measure the bush, order a bearing and pad with washers 👌
Nice C Balz! thanks for the thoughts mate
Been researching rods, reels, lines and lures for a whole day. More complicated than engineering. Was looking at the Miravel, but now thinking the Twin Power XD. I like to buy once and once only. What do you think of a XD 5000 with a 6-12kg T-curve rod? I want just one rod, maybe two, to catch fish 1-6kg in the river and beach. Needs to be salt water protected.
haha, someone is down the rabbit hole!
@@ByronTeaHill More like a giant sink hole. Learnt a lot.
The first thing I noticed about this reel is its weight th-cam.com/users/postUgkxM68VkfsQhHaabDce1IwOCXuvumcpbZ_k . I wouldn't say it was uncomfortable but it was a little heavier than other similarly sized reels. However, that didn't deter my enjoyment of how smooth this reel is. I spooled it with 20lb. Tuf-Line XP and it's perfect for what I use it for. I have it paired with an 8'6" Medium/Fast Okuma SST Salmon/Steelhead rod. The combination is perfect for casting and even drifting. I used the reel all day and didn't experience any arm or hand fatigue except when fighting a few fish! The bail is solid and feels strong when engaging by reeling and manually closing the bail by hand. The large rubber handle grip is very comfortable. It's got a powerful drag, silky smooth reeling, and feels very comfortable in the hands. I recommend it!
What is that rod mate?
Love your shirt
I was expecting it would be a cut down Vanford, but really it's so different that it's just not. No MGL rotor, no long cast spool, 25g heavier. It's clearly not the same gears as the Vanford so unlikely as smooth. Instead this is the Ci4+ version of the Nasci like the Vanford is the Ci4+ version of the Stradic. If the price stays around the $220 you'd be mad to buy this over a Vanford which can be had at under $300 if you shop around. I'd guess Shimano will allow this to retail for $190 a bit after release.
Great to hear your thoughts mate
$130 here in Florida
@@Gio-nl7eg Talking Aussie $ mate, everything is way cheaper in the US, much bigger market, we get screwed by the tackle companies down here.
A shimano ultegra is and always was branded to be the cut down/budget version of the vanford/stradics a miravel is exactly what u said a ci4+ version of the nasci
@@soobz Vanford is on sale now in many shops, for the size of 3000, Vanford is only $80 more, I’ll go with Vanford for sure .
Daiwa fuego cs lt 2021 vs shimano miravel? Light 15 gr
Good video mate always like watching your videos, if I was to win the reel I would use it to chase reddies and Yellas down at the channel near my house 🤙
Awersome Mikey
Hi Byron. Don't suppose you have a lightly used Luvias 2000 you want to sell?
Cheers
negative! sorry mate
@@ByronTeaHill good. Just purchased one today haha
Hey Byron, I’m realising early on I was being a nonce in my sort of jealousy of guys with high end gear and product I couldn’t afford. You just wait until you can afford not bag people out who have it. Now I have a nice Daiwa monocoque T.D. Black reel with my Maikuro II rod, and some other cool gear. Just wonder if you could advise on the better leader material I have. Platypus Stealth FC or Sunline Siglon FC. Which one better, or both O.K. Or both crap. Let me know, if you can. Cheers Byron.
Both not my choices. I use chinu Harris fighter. I think there’s a link in the description but that’s what I’ve used for years
Great stuff mate I’m sure you made those kids day. Be good to chase flathead with
100%
Want one of these badly but the expected date of stock moved from October to January 😢
Ouch!
Black Friday sale I just bought one for just over $150 posted. Yippppppeeeee
great explanation
Glad it was helpful!
Doesn’t look to bad kind of looks like a lot of other shimano reels hahah.. it would be great to bash around in the salt like for casting small metals of the beach or rock or something along those lines👌
Would be keen to hear how it goes Rory, I do think it is a simple look. But I enjoy it
@@ByronTeaHill yeah definitely could look worse haha
I’m very excited to enter this giveaway as I’m a big fan of reals such as the Shimano Miravel, I own a Daiwa Freams and I’d imagine that they would be quite similar. Now what I would use the real for is my light fishing such as Bream, Flathead, Bass, and I would also use it for Mangrove Jacks and Jew fish, definitely a bit more of a challenge catching the bigger fish but hey I love me a challenge 💪
Onyx
Nice Onyx! Thanks for the comment buddy.
Great video again Byron. Definitely going to have a sticky at these. Would use for flatty hunting. Replace my Nasci which was stolen by some dog. Good on you giving away those lures.
Thanks for watching mate! glad you enjoyed it
Awesome video unfortunatly being a kid i cant get the membership having no credit card or PayPal or apple pay
but if i would be able to win that reel i would put it on my shimano zodias and use it for light bream and eastury perch around my local lakes such as hollands landing, mitchell river, paynsville and lake tyres.
I get it, Tina I get it.
Flick me a message on Insta and I’ll send you a reel I’ve got here.
Thanks for the comment
I would love to win this reel, but wouldn’t use it myself… my brother has recently been getting into light tackle lure fishing for the bread and butter species, and gifting this reel to him would be the next step in his fishing journey.
Family sharing! Solid dude. Thanks for the comment Rigaz.
I’d use it as my bait reel. On a med light fast, and catch skipjack herring.. to catch slob cats with lol
but is that much better than the Sahara?
Hey mate nice reel.
Dude where can I get that lure shirt you're wearing
Googan squad - usa
I would use the reel with an 8ft medium action rod for walleye fishing
Awesome Ethen! Good Luck and thanks for supporting the channel
Just opened mine out of the package and the spool is clicking. Any idea what’s wrong? I’m going to send back to tackle warehouse
Yeah that doesn’t sound right mate
bream for sure, set it up for pontoon/ structure fishing.
AWesome
Cool review, Byron. I’d use the reel to chase flathead on the flats on the Parramatta River around where I live.
Thanks Alf!
Good deal, my Shimano Vanford has a bearing in the line roller and it makes noise, don't care for roller bearing any more.
Would use the reel fo bass in south east Queensland
Certainly would legend
Bro when did the stradic fl cost 360$?!?!
I was cuffing that off the top of my head. I see it went for $330my bad
If i win, I am going to give this Reel to my 5yo son so we can chase some bream together ❤️
Very nice!!! That’s some heart string stuff right there Hamish.
