Shimano Twin Power SW VS Van Staal VR!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- Shimano and Van Staal are definitely two key brands in the spinning reel market, especially when it comes to big tarpon, snook, and offshore fishing.
Van Staal is hugely popular in the north east for surf fishing. The incredibly sealed nature of their reels and utilitarian all metal build makes them hold up in the surf and sand very well.
Shimano is a technological powerhouse. The engineering that goes into everything they make is unreal. From ci4+, infinity drive, and x protect, to the hagane gearing, you can be sure that every aspect of the Twin Power SW is ready for winching in some big fish

I have them both VR150 and TP10000, bot are excellent. I trust my VS underwater but not my Shimano. The TP10000 is full aluminum chassis.
Different applications honestly. Van Staal is what I went if I’m rock hopping and dunking my reel regularly. The Twin Power is light years smoother and more fun to fish so if I’m on a boat im choosing that reel over VS 100 times out of 100.
Agreed
Penn spinfisher does the job
not like van
spinfisher was broken after 1 year.
Lol
And don’t forget Penn reels are very heavy
I've had a few van staals, every one had a jerky drag. They're good for montauk skishers. Very specialized. I'll take a saltiga or saragosa. Twin powers are great too. The made in china thing bothers me with van staal now. Wouldn't buy from our enemy.
Iv got the VR51, Visser #4 and the IRT 400. Iv cried 3 times lol. All three awesome reels, I put them up against any reel!
The VS is like a splitting axe compared to TP that is like a samurai sword, they have different purposes
If you are very picky on smooth feel, ticking sound, tight tolerance n no gear whinny noise when you reel. Then Shimano TP is for you.
If you are not a picky user, any reel is fine
Well said!
i cried twice to buy both! 😁😁😁
I have the Shimano Twinpower 5000 and it's an awesome 👌 reel.The only thing is I wish they made a same round knobs like van staal.
Walmart on-line. Has them 50 bucks
Get the gomexus after market knobs for 25 bucks
Vs may wins in water protection dept, designe n maintenance , the rest goes for tp
A bearing on my Van Staal spool went. I had a big fish full drag, just about. Strong lines main line and leader. Took it came some, did that. Van Staal said they had trouble with the VR 50 doing that. They sent me a new one for free. I like the reel. But Im getting a Visser. The newest model.
Sounds great!
Nice review!
What’s a better reel, Gosa SW or Twin Power SW?
Trying to see where the benefits are?
Gosa SW, better bang for your buck
What size is the twin power reel in the video?
I've got 3 Stella's. A pre 2018 model, an 18 and the 2022 model. I'll buy the new Stella when it comes. And I have a Van Staal VR 50. I take the Van Stall to salt water. Because the Shimano SW is water resistant I bought a Van Staal. A Van Staal get laid in the sand.
I want a Visser. Only though the new model.
Have one first fish landed 100# plus tarpon .. honestly though I prefer shimano twin power for this type of fishing.
Trade vr150 with 200 rotor n spool for 6000 SW
Hello , what size vr ? What size Shimano twin power , interesting compare size reels, thank you
The Twin Power is a 6000 and the VR is a 150
@@tailwateroutfitters thank you
Bruv the twin power is metal, just the rotor is ci4+ and side plate.
The rotor is metal I got one
So I’m a rookie I’m looking to buy some gear to get my feet wet would you recommend that I go with the Ci4 first ???
I would try some Penn battle series or Daiwa BG. Not too fancy and not too expensive but they still catch fish
witch should i geti live in south florida i plan to do everything snook fishing
I would recommend a twin power over a vr for the price, tp has much smoother drag and lots of it in the larger sizes, vr is not fully sealed as it is a different design from the fully sealed VS model
@@Gottightt wdym its not fully sealed for the pier when the snook are under the pier what would you reccomend
@@Zyl0n_yt I have talked to people who have serviced van staals for over 20 years this new vr model does not have nearly the same sealing as a VS would, twin power for pier fishing
@@Gottightt you think it has more power ? and stuf a lot of people perfer the vr of instead of the twin power whatt size twin power and rod should i pair it up with then?
@@Gottightt please answer
I am under the understanding that the van Staal.VR series can d
Be submerged BUT you cannot reel them under water, please correct me if I am wrong.
Reeled mine underwater quite a few times, bought it in 2016. Not sure what to tell you. Did you look on their website or call them? Still working like a champ.
I mean, nobody is going to recommend you to operate their reel underwater, but of all the reels in our shop, I’d be most comfortable doing that with the van staal
@@tailwateroutfitters personally, I dunk all reels when the surf is rough, even my Mitchell 302 I got in France in 1968 and I still have it, just clean them ant they last
Van Staal is honestly a cool looking reel and yes the best sealed reel. But that Chinese made stamp and price mark up doesn’t make any sense to me. Such a huge let down. Don’t even try to tell me they’re paying anywhere close to 6-$800 for them reels to be made. And I get it, it’s geared to different anglers who are “IN” the surf. But 98% of the time it’s Brand loyalists that will pay literally anything. Even if it’s made in Chinatown. Nothing beats the smoothness of a premium Japanese reel and the fact people try to tell themselves that van staal is the best out there is hilarious. And 90 percent of you are not diving in the dam water with this shit to even need one so stop. You all buy it because you think it’s an item you can flex or something like a badge of honor. 😂😂😂.
VR ALL THE WAY
What size of twin power sw reel? 4000? 5000?
The Twin Power is a 6000 and the VR is a 150
@@tailwateroutfitters if U dont mind, can i ask U another question, coz im intresting of Van Staal VR reel,
If VR100 size , it does similir with 5000 size Twin power?
Both underated
You don’t fish a lot in high action waters - large saltwater game , all day stalking trophy fish . Keep your zebco and penn good for catfish action .
Twinpower sw have an aluminum body
this is correct...all SW are all aluminum.
I think it’s half composite half Aluminium
@@AnglingAddictssrilanka not all sw has aluminum body
Twin Power SW has all aluminum body, I have a 10000 PG. Not sure about anything less than a 6000.
Old VS before they sold off hands down over the twin power and this is coming from a Shimano fan
But after VS sold off the reels and the customer service are complete junk / poop . So nowadays Twin Power all day long
Hey Man!!!
You are saying tjing seriously BUT YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT YOU SPEAK!!!
Twin Power DOES NOT have composite/Ci4+ body - IT IS FULL METAL/ALU BODY.
The thing is it has a side cover mafe of Ci4+ composite, but that does not carry any serioua load, as all load is on body. The ALU / METAL Body.
So PLEASE when You take something to speak,.know what You speak before You do.

Got that?? 😂 @@tailwateroutfitters
