Accurate Tern 2 VS Shimano Ocea Jigger | Best Reel for SLOW PITCH?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 дек 2024
- Slow pitch jigging is a super cool technique. The slow flutter of a jig is irresistible to most offshore species. Good gear is an extremely important piece of jigging. You've got to have a light setup with a very good drag to get it right. A star drag reel is also very helpful because you can easily go from free spool to your fishing drag precisely with the flip of a switch.

I have both Shimano and Accurate reels and both fish flawlessly. I lean towards the Accurate for the stainless interior components. I'll sacrifice a little weight for longevity. Accurate is also American made.
Well said!
One of my favourite things about jigging is the gear. The super lightweight rods and amazing reels which are awesome to use, hold and even look at! These reels are amazing examples of modern technology.
I am a veteran when it comes to jigging of all sort and having using both of these i can tell u nothing beats the shimano OJ when it comes to precision buttery smooth drag, refinement and longevity!
Good to hear!
JUST SERVICED MY 2 OCEA JIGGER, LIKE IT SAID ABOVE, THE BRASS MAIN GEARS GOT SOME COPPER GREEN ON BOTH. BUT, ON THE OTHER SIDE, THE DRAG SMOOTHNESS IS UNBEATABLE, CAUGHT SEVERAL BF TUNA 50-100 POUND RANGE. THE DRAG NEVER JERK ONCE, NO MATTER YOUR DRAG SETTING. AND VERY EASY TO SERVICE IT YOURSELF.
What are your thoughts on the Daiwa Saltiga Lever Drag ?
@@brandonstill7229 It is an awesome reel.
i have the 2-speed and mostly use for bottom fishing. It is aesthetically pleasing and almost frictionless like free spool. you certain can jig with it if the back-play does not bother you! I like it More than the Shimano Talica!
@@fishbait007 , thanks for the info.
I have both and love them equally
I have 3 f customs now the 1500, 2000& 3000 all hg. Love them got a 4000hg on the way for 2 things 1- for way way deep & 2 it can handle PE 8 450 yds & bring in lg tuna quickly with 40 lb drag.
The OJ is aluminum body. Not composite
I'd go with the Accurate Shimono uses brass gears instead of stainless & a cheaper grade of aluminum on the reel body but I do like Shimono's reel handle a lot better, in conclusion the Diawa Saltiga is the best of both Worlds.
"Dawia best in the world". SOM - "Hold my 🍺" 😂😂😂
@@bringit3164”best of both worlds” was the actual term.
Should’ve said “best of both worlds in the budget-friendly field”
I'm so torn between getting the Shimano Ocea jigger 2000nrhg or a Accurate Valiant BV2-SPJ.
Uhh, the Accurate looks better and has higher build quality considering it has way less plastic parts than the Shimano
@@chelseapeters7187 Ended up getting the shimano and I love it!
@@trussmonkey5910 well yea ur gonna love any SPJ reel I was just saying which one was better in build quality. I just got the GoMexus sX450 n I love every bit of it. I don't even slow jig that often I just love how jigging reels look and feel and can definitely be used as an all purpose reel. Used it in pretty much every different fishing application from fresh to salt n it's amazing. Enjoy ur Shimano tho.🤗
I sold my accurate valiant BV2-500N SPJ and got a Shimano ocea jigger F custom instead.
I don’t know how so many reviews get it wrong. The Tern 2 does NOT apply drag to both sides of the spool. Even Accurate says it doesn’t. That’s not how Star drags work at all! It’s hard to take a review seriously that gets such a simple detail so very wrong. I own both reels and like them both but the Shimano is better for slow pitch because of the auto engage. The Tern 2 is still an awesome reel and I like it for live bait fishing and even some surf casting.
Hey rhett, thanks for the clarification. It has drag discs on both sides of the main gear, not the spool. Thanks for pointing out that mistake
One downside to take seriously with the auto lock with a half turn on the ocea jigger , if your a heavy caster getting it up current it does not take much to lock up while casting i have seen two people have there whole set ups go for a death swim into the deep blue because of this i know a backlash can do the same if you want to minimize the risk you may want to choose the tern.
As I understand, the Shimano is not designed as a casting reel. It's strictly a vertical application.
I have a new Goofish slow pitch rod , would like to use my shimano tekota 500 lc reel until I can decide on a new slow pitch reel like you reviewed , what’s your opinion on using this reel for this setup?
It will work, but it's just big and heavy and not very well suited for slow pitch
what size of tern2 it is?
500
and ocea what size is it thanks
What size of ocea jigger is that pls?
How would you compare the Daiwa Saltiga Lever Drag to the shimano ocea jigger ? That’s what I’m trying to decide. Thanks and love your videos 👍🏼
I would compare the saltiga lever system with the Shimano Talica. The Shimano OJ is not the same breed, its a star drag system.
Stainless gears VS Brass gears, Made USA vs Made Overeas…equals Day & Night!
Acccurate , always bearing problem. Design issues
Two different reels. One is good and one is garage. Please do a breakdown of each reel. New technolg vs. Old technology. You just covered what you read online about those reels. Its called auto-engage aka. Auto bail system. Be more detail about the jigger so much you have miss mentioning.
Accurate only exists because SHIMANO ×
Bullshit. Accurate owners are brothers who were machinists in the aircraft parts business that decided to make precision reels. What does shimano have to do with them? They invented and patented the twin drag technology.
I was the kid who just picked up some 3 inch nlbns
Thanks for stopping by man!
