thanks for a good review!
Great review! Thank you for sharing my friend!
Thanks 😊
After using it for few years now, its still goin smooth. The best reel in its price range, might have out performed some of my higher price tag reels.
Thanks for watching and sharing 😊
Great overview and such a good looking reel. Interesting info on the drag system. Good job Mike!
Thanks 😊 they good reels for there purpose. I want to do reviews based off experience like this more often.
i got a Fglt2500D-XH last spring for my medium lite setup and it's a really nice reel . i wanted another reel and decided to try the shimano miravel a few months ago and took it back because it just wasn't as smooth as the fuego . thanks and take care DLFA .
Thanks for watching and sharing 😊
Great video Mike. I have had that reel on my radar for a while now
Definitely one to consider when higher line capacity, line pickup, and drag resistance are important. The compact shape and line winding is also nice.
It's on sale 59.99$ at scheels sporting goods I bought 2 😊👍🐟
@tomstarcevich1147 that is can't miss price
I bought one. Couldn’t figure out the handle! Dick’s week before Black Friday had flash sale of Daiwa Procyon LT AL for $85. $199 normally. They also had Regals for $29.99
@@barbarabarber3167 what issue did you have with handle?
Ya know what I’m talkin beautiful run down bud love it
Thanks for watching :)
@@DadLifeFishingAdventures you got it bud looking to get some new gear over the winter an was looking into those reels , helped me out merry Xmas brother tight lines
@@Justin_Mooney11 Merry Christmas 🎄
Good info
Thanks for watching 👍
For the money its a great reel. Bought the 3000 for my son. The felt drag washers are crap though so changed them for carbontex.
Thanks for watching! Glad your son is enjoying the reel and thanks for sharing about the drag change that you made.
just ordered a 23 version fuego lt FEGLT2500D-XH .
i had no complaints on my 20 version .
i wish they had kept the bail but the other "upgrades" look promising .
it'll be wearing #15 X9 braid with stren mono leaders and i'll add CF drag washers .
take care , jeff
Excited for you! You'll have to let me know how it works. Sounds like a good setup :)
@@DadLifeFishingAdventures i returned it , retrieve felt rough and had VERY little carry on when releasing the handle while spinning it fast .
@@JeffB1961 you may have got a dud. Sorry to hear that.
@@DadLifeFishingAdventures that's not impossible . but my 20 version is fine and i'm looking forward to the two 20 versions i have coming . take care DLFA
@@JeffB1961 👍
I have had mine for almost 2 years, still flawless. I use mine in backwater brackish water for everything.
I can attest to the bail trying to "jump" with high drag settings
Good to hear. Thanks for watching. It has almost too much drag but is super impressive for the money.
What size reel? I wonder if this would be a problem for all sizes or just 2500.
It is most likely more of an issue with the smaller sizes than the larger as many of parts get larger and better designed to handle the drag power. @christopherlombardi4958 what real size are you using.
@@DadLifeFishingAdventures I just bought the 3000 to go on a 7' MH rod as my northern pike rod. Hopefully it's not an issue in that application, though I know how to set drag just fine.
@@karlkrause6679 that'll be a great northern pike setup. I've only had it happen when the drag is set towards the higher thresholds. Good look out there and let me know how you do.
I have a fuego 2000 and it's great. i agree with many who say that there is no competition under 100 dollars. by the way, use a normal transmission, not a fast one...
Glad you're enjoying the reel!
Just received mine. LT2500D-XH. the bail wire is smaller, and it not as smooth as expected, plus the handle feels a bit loose. It made in Vietnam, not sure if that matters. Planning to return it and get a Shimano in this price range instead.
@@peteryeung111 the LT is lower version then the Fuego. Definitely would suggest following the link in this video to learn more. I am not a Shimano fan.
@@DadLifeFishingAdventures
Not sure what you meant…LT is still the fuego, isn’t it? I checked your link, and it’s the same reel I got. What is the higher version than the LT? Thanks for your help.
@@peteryeung111 no I'm sorry I got confused for a second. Most of daiwa reels use the LT moniker in there name. I don't think you'll be disappointed in it. Many reels are rough until they are broken in after a few trips. I would pick daiwa over a Shimano any day. If not, I would highly suggest the pfluger president XT
@@DadLifeFishingAdventures
I see. I’ll definitely look more into it. And thanks again for your suggestion.
@@peteryeung111 Good luck in tight lines!
I've been using a 2000 and a 3000 size Diawa Revros a lot lately for redfish, trout and flounder around the Chesapeake Bay and I can't complain. They're pretty cheap but they're light and smooth and so far I've caught reds up to 27" and a pile of smaller ones and trout. Also I foul hooked a big stingray and got dragged around the grass flat in my kayak, no problem. It tested the drag on the 2000 and it's fine. Maybe they won't last forever but they're still going fine after daily use, and I take them out in my kayak so I don't need to take my Penns that are more expensive. I haven't tried the Fuego but the Salt Strong guys seem to like them a lot.
I have a couple $50-60 Pfluger reels that are pretty nice too for the price. And I still prefer Penn, they've rarely failed me.
Thanks for sharing. Definitely would give them a try. Pfluegers aren't a good saltwater option but Daiwa is.
Scheels has fuego lt at $59 shipped. I picked up a few more. They're decent
Nice price for one
Bought 2 at $59, then price is now $79 😭
@@eorchids1 definitely got get them when there on sale. Hope you like them
Me too
@@barbarabarber3167 they are worth it. The link in bio is to the new model.
Is it normal that I feel little hard and not that smooth when I use 7g 10g jig?
I have not noticed it struggling with those size jigs. Might be a sign of it needing greased.
@@DadLifeFishingAdventures I've just received it, out of box
@@kamelouaret may consider returning it as it may be defective.
