HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 июл 2024
- Cast Testing My new Budget Baitcaster for Frog Lures - Shimano SLX-A 151XG. This is an affordable reel that uses centrifugal braking. This new reel also sport an O - Ring on the shaft (Silent Tuned) that makes this reel so quiet when you make that hard strong cast to launch your frogs across the lake! Watch me cast some frog and skip the Froglet!

Thanks for the review my friend! I really thought it was a nice reel. Keep up the good work! As always, #raWrFishing rocks!!!
Thx! It's not bad! I am digging this silent tuned o rings they add to the spools now
I believe when you get the breaks figured out for the applications of skipping or distance. You will love the reel. Be blessed. My friend.
Oh I figured it out... Centrifugal braking is not new for me. But as stated, I'm still a Daiwa fan! :)
Fruity frog matching the fruity line is just cool!
Lol u bet dude
Cool reel
Thx man!
This is my favorite RUclips channel
Thank you
That first skip was beautiful..... I need to learn that still lol
Surprising that I can skip it so well since I rarely skip lol. Fun technique that I recommend all to learn
Remember last year you told me it's time to respooooool buddy 😂😂. Your tatula elite casted like a dream!
Lol. Yeah.... That elite is the bomb... Imagine if they made a Salamandura elite lol
@@rawrfishing then your wallet would get even thinner lol
Yes... Unfortunately lol
I came across a Diawa Costal 150. I decided to use that on a heavy rod set up and for frogging. I was able to launch a 1 oz TX rig pretty far, still need to get out more with it and find a line that I like. I used some cheapo 65lb from walmart. Hope to put some varivas and also try out some heavy mono to see how it casts.
It would be nice to see a smaller reel for that one! Or a mid size spool, but same chassis! Would be fun for the back bays :)
@@rawrfishing it smaller than I expected, similar to a lews speed spool, or a phantom. They do make three coastal sizes 80, 150, 200. I think they are the same as a Tatula. The spool is deep on the coastal. 100 meters of 20lb mono can fit on the 150. I never looked for an after spool for the coastal yet.
I may have to look since everyone is encouraging me to go back to the salt world. It's scary out there tho
Where you throwing a 1oz T rig?! You fishing the Mariana Trench over there? 😂
@@sk8rfromGA nope fresh water pound…I honestly was just trying to see how far I can cast it. I might even try out a 2 oz, but haven’t got one yet. I mainly wanted to flip/pitch/punch throw some heavy vegetation with it.
Just wondering sense you are my BFS go to guy have you tried the Shimano XLS BFS DC yet? If so what are your thoughts.
I don't think there is a slx DC bfs reel just slx bfs. Although I have not tried it, it's the same as the curado bfs reel. Just branded differently for different part of the world. With that said... It's great bass reel out of the box and both the avail and Roro spools are good ones for it if you want to go UL
I was running the Daiwa elite on my sierra 735c also. Switch to Curado MGL. Bombs cast much easier then Daiwas. Like my Daiwas for close combat fishing.
I feel like bombing is amazing on the Shimano for sure! I think I may just keep this as my frogging. I will skip and toss lighter frogs on my Tatula sv103 for now... Until I get that new Tatula 100... But u know.. Whenever I get a Tatula... It might end up a bfs reel haha
@@rawrfishing great minds think alike.
Sup jimmy, great setup, how do you cast it so far, other than settings, is the rod flex helping? Or all skill lol? I have 3 baitcasters and still backlash lol, brother bought me a curado dc 150 hg, and a cranking stick from bass pro, said can't backlash, guess who backlash 🤣😂, but easier, idk if it's disability? Even so called backlash free? Think have to know more, I am getting better tho👍, took all 4 now baitcasters on brothers boat and had competition, I won but luck, best way to learn, don't bring a spinning combo lol. Was in hospital 2 days(6th and 7th) with severe burns, heat stroke, dehydration... Forgot sunblock and water🤷, almost 6 hours in sun, middle of lake🥵, won't happen again, great video, been wanting, missed ya bro👊, tyvm tc 🎣
Lol, I still be over spooling at times. But for long cast lures, it's quite easier. As mentioned, the Frog King flies due to weight placement and it doesnt catch air like frogs with silicone legs. So the answer is all of the above! Skills is one, but knowledge of using the reel with the right rod, line lure and to configure the tension and brakes to work with your thumb skills :)
Man u need to take care of yourself! I am always with liquid and always covered up! Get well soon man
@@rawrfishing ty bro, that's what was thinking, even with the "backlash free" curado dc, or any DC I guess? Have to have some knowledge, I say false advertising lol, once go from 4 to 3 it's like normal baitcasters? I like that frog(2nd one used) going to check it out, hope family had a great 4th👊, tyvm
@@rawrfishing ty, I usually put sunscreen on at home, and bring sunscreen spray, and some waters and beers lol. But we're in hurry to try new pond, was very rushed, stupid decision, just glad made it to hospital, turns in a minute from good to bad, and I knew better.. sun is more harmful with chemicals governments put in air with planes, climate warfare ect.. I'm sure put sunscreen on son, if not I'd start, it's a big thing now more than ever, even harm's our crops.. I'm still little swollen but can breath lol. Tyvm
I think u need to still configure the reel properly for DC to work. Which is stupid cuz I can't seem to get it working haha...
Would that reel be ok with 20 pound mono
While it can, do know that the reel specs says you can put 90 yards of 14lb mono. So expect a lot less!
What do you think of Z-Man new additional micro finesse bait?
I think it will add fun! I spoke with them and they will be sending me some, so I didn't spend too much time there at icast. In fact, it was so big there that I missed about 20 ppl that I wanted to stop by, but I only had 1 day there :(.
@@rawrfishing the micro goat and the new finesse fish head is what I interested in the most
@@leepao6302 it's definitely a nice one to add onto their line up!
My Shimano are zero adjust because I don’t adjust it. Leave the spool lose and use the bakes to control the cast
I haven't tried that yet on this reel. But I could do that with my KK speed demon elite for casting heavier lures like frogs and bomb it. But for other lures that catches air, it seems that it doesn't work well for that reel. I will give it a shot tho on the slx soon :)
That's exactly how I do it too. I set the spool for a tiny hint of play and the only adjustment I ever use is the brakes. Same setup for every baitcast reel I have with a brake system.
Centrifugal seems to be tougher with that.. Seems that the thumb game needs to be strong lol
@@rawrfishing Yeah, centrifugal was the O.G secondary braking system (think old ABUs) and the least effective even with multi fugals like new reels. I love magnetic brakes but "centrifugal magnetic braking" is the neatest concept and my fav system. The engineering behind that is kinda fascinating.
Wait until u see the new KK IFC braking system. Very interesting as it will be a dynamic DC braking
you should try the Shimano 21 Antares DC .... hahaha
DC reels are not for me. Especially that price
@@rawrfishing lol, but you said you prefer magnetic braking system lol
It's a computer tho... I didn't even spend time at the kastking ireel
@@rawrfishing it’s a turn off for me when I heard your have to recharge the reel to use after 1 or 2 outing, kinda suck Thoa in my opinion
Mmm, I was told that it last longer than that! If only used 4 hours a day, it will last 30 days

Sorry, I ask you to make a video about the new Steez A 2 TW 1000xhl baitcasting daiwa reel in 2023!!
Can this reel model use light bait which is 3 to 5 grams with how far the meter is and using the number brake, the farthest the bait will fall into the water!!?????
Thank you and I hope you will subscribe more and more !!!
Thank you for the recommendation. That reel is currently not on my radar and also out of my budget. But i will put it on the list :)
@rawrfishing Thank you for including your list, because I want to buy this fishing rod, but in my mind can I use 3 -4 gram bait!!
I hope you can quickly prove it !!
Thanks again!!
Good luck for the future!!
Shimano and budget is weird in the same sentence.
It's under 100!
