I just chose a BG 8000 over the new Penn Battle III.... And its my first Diawa, Ive been a Penn man for 40 years. People loved their BG 8000's so much I chose it. Was I wrong?
Maintenance question on the melted Penn drag knob. How many years into it's life did it fail? Did you ever grease the drag washers during those years? Did you ever accidentally dunk the reel in the salt water? I just bought a battle ii 8000 today, I wish I had watched this video first I had no idea that the plastic there might melt. I hope it was lack of grease.
Hi bro. It fails after fighting 70kg YFT. I have used it for 3 years but before it fails I only fought 35kg YFT the biggest. Yes I do maintain my reel regularly. It safe to say that 35kg fish and below no issue.
i could see that drag knob cooking under the load those fish will put out. maybe switching out that top metal spacer for a teflon one will dissipate the heat better ? just thinking .
BG IS VERY GOOD...is the cheapest reel with fast retrieve...if you are going to wet it a bit you should put a GREASE UNDER THE ROTOR!, there is water accumulating
@@LanixFishingChannelWere you jigging to catch the tuna in the video? I have some people saying you can’t slow jig with a spinning set up and some say you can still catch fish slow jigging with a spinning reel, what’s your opinion sir?
Lanix Fishing Channel will the BG 8000 be good for uk fishing with eels and stingrays from 20 1b on the beach as will the drag be to strong on the reel?
@@LanixFishingChannel the Lethal LT 100 is fantastic! better gears (brass), and the drag system is MUCH better than penn or daiwa, because the reel is supported in such a way that it can actually handle the heavy drag pressures of 50 lbs. I've caught tuna, sharks, and wahoo with the lethal lt100 and it is built like a tank and made dor the job. Make sure thay you get the lt100 because the smaller sizes have inferior zinc gears and drag system. LT 100 is the reel you want!
@@fishingbrasil the line capacity is comparable, but slightly less on the Fin nor Lethal LT100.... but you get a stronger metal rotor, stronger drag, and much stronger and higher quality gears. The gears are brass which will last significantly longer than the cast zinc gears in the daiwa.
@@dartfrogger I had researched this product a long time ago, the problem is that here in Brazil there would be no maintenance part. If it weren't for that, I'd be with one of those.
Hi.. comparing with this 2 reel which one is best , penn battle (3)6000 vs daiwa bg Magsealed.. I am planning to buy I am little confused which 1 to buy plz your suggestion.. Targeting for Big Fish like a GT barramundi..
hello lanix how are you I have purchased my reels - 14000 saragosa new one and 20000 stella what lures do you use for the tuna so i can buy rod which one works best for yellowfin thanks lanix! god bless
Bro i cant compare right now I need to try my daiwa first then after that i’ll give you a feedback. I like penn battle that’s one thing for sure. I already caught big fishes for that reel. GT and YFT. I cant test my BG because of this pandemic.
Lanix Fishing Channel how can you catch 100 kg tuna on a reel that had a 30kg drag how do I work it out as I don’t understand the drag to the fish size please
hello friend, did you come to a conclusion about which of the reels is better for bringing big fish? Considering Drag, smoothness, traction power, line capacity, weight, durability and others...
Feabo Vallega Daiwa BG magsealed kasi water resistant n sya ang penn battle hnde nman sya water resistant sealed lng bearings nya pro madaling mapasokan ng tubig ung gear nya.

Will the BG be to big if I want to use it for eels and sting rays from 20 1b in weight in the uk ?
Diawa is much better than Penn in my opinion.
The spinfisher 6 drag cap fits in the battle and fierce and it's metal it's a nice upgrade
Thanks for the tip bro.

@@LanixFishingChannel So it held together enough to still land the fish? Are you fishing off Samar Leyte?
Most of the drag buttom are plastic but how come this one melt and others reels doesnt ,
how is battle lll hs series?
BG reliability is legendary. Got 40 YO BG. Got the second gen BG. Got to buy BG MAGSEALED 5000 next
Daiwa BG 6500 and penn battle 3 DX r best reel tell me bro
8000 spinning reel
?
i could see that drag knob cooking under the load those fish will put out. maybe switching out that top metal spacer for a teflon one will dissipate the heat better ? just thinking .
Great Idea. I think it will work because teflon is heat resistant. I will try it. Thanks mate.
@@LanixFishingChannel you need a 2 sidded spacer, copper and teflon, put the heat where you want it
nicely done good comparison I love daiwa BG. but I have a question? is BG knot is water resistant?

Thank bro.
Can you jig 200-300 meters with those reels?
Yes but it’s heavy for jigging.
@LanixFishingChannel Awesome, I went with a BG 6500 paired with an Ecooda Black Expert II slow jigging rod. Hopefully, that combo will work nice!
@@LanixFishingChannelWere you jigging to catch the tuna in the video? I have some people saying you can’t slow jig with a spinning set up and some say you can still catch fish slow jigging with a spinning reel, what’s your opinion sir?
which one is better Penn battle 3 hs with daiwa bg sw spinning?
DAIWA BG
Hello friend, which of these reels do you consider stronger and better for fishing for large tuna?
Take BG friend good cranking power and smooth drag.
Lanix Fishing Channel will the BG 8000 be good for uk fishing with eels and stingrays from 20 1b on the beach as will the drag be to strong on the reel?
Hello dear Can i use BG for surfcasting?? THANKS
Yes bro you can.
@@LanixFishingChannel thank you so much
Nice video. What set up did you have on the bg please ?
I used pioneer dogtooth PE 8 rod, varivas 112 lb braid and monofilament leader 200lb.

Hey Lanix, nice video.
What is more effective for yellowfin tuna?
Jigging set up 200g jigs
Or casting setup stickbait poppers...
Thanks, God bless you
thanks mate. Stickbait and poppers are effective for big tuna. For small size up to 10kg jig is better.
@@LanixFishingChannel ok so better to buy casting?
BG is great reel for popping as SPHEROS for jigging....LETHAL100 is another fantastic, have you tried it?

Hello bro
Are both reels suitable for salt water?

Boss, how about saragosa 5000 vs daiwa bg magsealed 5000? planning to buy saragosa today. help please.
Saragosa is better for saltwater. Take note that the BG 5000 same size as the saragosa 8000.
New PENN Battle III just released. Has CnC machined gears, bearing in the line roller, and larger power handle.
Wow I cant wait to have them. Thanks for the info mate.
Well informative! 😲

If you dont mind can you hele me given your kind advice i want to bey telescopic rod which will be best for high loded

I don't know why people bother buying 6000 just go with the 8000 both of them are heavy I'd rather have more line
Yes you’re right.
Quantum Boca 100 has 50lbs of drag and is bigger than the Daiwa BG 8000.
Thanks for the info.
I love the daiwa BG but the black one with magsealed.
Pen ... Sailed
Watet resistant.
Penn Battle II 8000 actually holds 400 yards of 80lb braid not 315yds
