    with the magdraft, its actually common that the magnet rips out. but pretty easy to fix stuff like that. Most bad reviews are just people complaining trying to get things free. Great video as always!

    Hey LoJo been with you a couple years now.. love the content keep that up. As for the closed lous reel. It is just like an old zebco 33. When you cast keep the thumb button depressed the whole cast. That holds the line catches all the way into the reel spool. Just pushing and releasing does work but line catches stay expose just a tiny bit. I kmow you aren't going to be using a whole lot of closed face reels 😂 but it is worth mentioning so might help young new anglers. Much respect and Thank You for Your Service!

    any hooks off with pliers weakens them so much. Go find yourself a big catfish circle hook. After ur second fish. That hook will break off. Also easy to do it yourself too. Plenty of vids out there

    The way I see it,the bad ratings are just from people who can't catch fish😂😂
    And I'll be honest,some of the reviews you will read regardless where it is,you can clearly tell who fishes and the people just trying to get free stuff...
    However,buying discount gear and bad rated gear is something I always love to do! I have found many amazing lures and equipment simply from trying them when they were disgraced...you might find the next hot lure by doing this!!
    Great video as always brother LoJo❤

  • @Brock_Landers
    @Brock_Landers 2 месяца назад

    That blue push button rod was absolute crap, I think that Lew's combo falls into that category as well. I do enjoy these videos for sure, like Temu gear, Amazon gear, so on and so forth, but if it were me I would've gone with all of the whackest spinning gear, not kid's rods. I get the reason for going with them, but if I'm watching these review videos I'd like to see more of the cheapest spinning combos (like something that an adult who's visiting the area and doesn't care about the longevity or true quality because they're planning to either give it away or throw it out at the end of their trip).

    I replace stock split rings and hooks on a lot of my hard baits as soon as i get them out of package, especially walking baits, crankbaits, and jerkbaits. Guys, never use bottom hook swimbaits, they kill a lot of fish. Why did Googan start another lure and tackle company under a different name?

  • @jasonlopez4855
    @jasonlopez4855 2 месяца назад

    I've been getting into Proficiency stuff like the crazy and the mint pro. I like them can't complain about them can get in the fish you need to get out of the water. Worth everything penny don't care for combos rods. One will be cheep either way your getting good reel or a good rod but not both. Maybe not the expensive ones will be great for reel and rod. I'm the $150 down. Favorite is a nice reel for all day use. Ho does Favorite make reels for 🤫 G.
