Tried every reel and rod combo there is to try from Bull bay to crowder to penn to Dark Matter to UglyStiks. To Penns to Shimanos to Daiwas to Van Staals. You name it, I’ve tried it. Still haven’t found a better, more budget friendly inshore combo than a Shimano Stradic 3000. Paired on a 7’ Ninja Tackle Dagger “do it all” inshore Rod. Really does do it all. Best Rod/reel combo I’ve ever set up.
We say can't go wrong with a stradic to someone at least once a day. They really are an amazing reel for the price.
@jacobmcvay123 how does that dagger rod handle light tackle offshore fishing? Would it be a good crossover rod?
Hey, thanks for the reviews, made my decision much easier. Stradic! I plan on using it for off shore as well as yellowtail.
Good choice!
Penn slammer 4500 for me. Had a few ultegras and a stradic and after fishing them along side slammer 3s and 4s, 3500-5500 and repairing/servicing both myself...I'll stick with the Penns.
Hey Eric, great choices there! I'll be up there in August chasing those Albies you mentioned ha! Please tell Peter Rick from NJ said hello. Was finally able to stop by the new store last summer & had a great chat with him.
Thanks Rick! Ill pass that along!
Thanks for all the great videos!
Thats's a heck of a hand model you guys hired for the reeling slo-mo sections. Must have cost a fortune
Interesting how Shimano took the first and second choice of the presenter. Shimano makes incredible spinning reels all through their line-up.
Awesome video, ok I’d love to see more salt water geared reel reviews (inshore) that be great. However I’ve worn out 2 mq ballistics (no fault of the reels) but replacing every 2 ish yrs for being just plane shot. I’m looking at steeping to that next teir but between 300-850$ ISH it gets very muddy. Video or maybe pointer at what you recommend? For reference my Mq ballistics are 2500 w/10-12 braid and 10 leader and soft plastics only. Reds/snook. I like a semi finesse style/setups. Physical size matters to me
Well plan on making a higher end reel video too! It sounds like what you are looking for is a Van Staal VR50, those fit everything you are after
@@SaltwaterEdge that’s what I keep coming back to BUT I know the visser is an “improved” company if you will (only what I’ve read in articles) I’ve seen various concerns with the handles in various models. Should this be a concern to look at visser more ? Or just give both fair shake?
Visser looks like a very nice reel, we have looked at them but haven't fished them or serviced them yet. I'm not sure if I would call it improved, but it is a different company with some different ideas about reel design. As a VS service center I can confidently say the Gen 2 VR series are incredibly reliable. I use a VR50 for the majority of my inshore fishing, its been dunked, splashed, taken big fish and still feels/works great.
@@SaltwaterEdge awesome I deff appreciate the input and I deff think I will be hitting up my local shop that does carry them I’m pretty sold. Ty 🙏🏻
Sorry for a silly question. Is inshore fishing the same as surf cast fishing on the beach?
Sometimes! Usually inshore fishing is done inside of bays and estuaries using lighter tackle and lures than you would find surfcasting
What Rod would you recommend for that stradic FM in a 3000 size?
The 3000 is a very lightweight reel so I would stick with a 7'-7'6" rod. It depends on the materials used in the rod's construction.
I’m trying to get a Inshore/surf reel what size and reel do you reccomend
What type of fish are you targeting?
@@SaltwaterEdge striper and stuff ended up getting a Saragosa 5k with 9 ft medium rod 1/2 to 3.5 oz
You forgot the Shimano saragosas
Saragosa 100% would be on the list if there was a 4000 size
@@SaltwaterEdge it’s under $300 though
@@12askalHarry no one is using a gosa inshore. Lol
@@aaronhiggs I use the 5k gosa inshore for bull reds
Where are the Okuma reels? I've used them for over a decade without any problems. ( Used a Garcia 300 in the 50's & a Daiwa SS 3000 in the 70's. My only Shimano went overboard. )
We are not a shop that carries Okuma so we could not test them. However the new saltwater reels they have come out with look nice!
I've had okumas reels for over 2 decades never been rebuilt still going strong. Shimanos and daiwa reels fallen apart many times in between. Shimano ain't the same like back In the day it's all made in China only their high end reels are made in Japan. I have all of those reels and okumas still shits on all of them.
Man I just want to eat 😭
Is the price in USD?😊
yes it is
BG MQ gang rise up
