Good vlog. Any reel + rod combo on the rocks gets scratched, you need to view it more as a fish catching tool and keep it clean and free of salt after the session.
Near the end you stepped away to add in another washer because the knob was moving a lot. Did you add another washer inside the round knob or on the handle?
the handles come with 2 thick washers, a small one that goes on the screw, and a larger one that goes on the handle, then the shim washers and bearing go onto the handle, if theres any movement or its too tight, you need to add/remove the shim washers from the handle end behind the bearing, no adjustment is done at the knob end (outside at the screw)
Bro did you ever try to put on saltiga 8000h the spool of 14000xh? Is saltiga 8000h and saltiga 14000 have the same rotor? At the page of Daiwa it show that spool are compatible but i want to know if someone try it. Thanks.
Based on the info I got from ISO, it's the spool that makes the reel XH or just H. Kind of makes sense when you think a bigger spool will retrieve more line per crank than a smaller spool.
Hey bro, but can you do the reverse? I have the 8000, so could I put the 14000 SLP spool on it, or is the rotor too small if you do it that way around? Are you keeping the T-bar knob you replaced with the SLP round one? or you keen to sell it? Chur da bro
Hey David. Yep, the body for 8k, 10k and 14k are all the same. So the spools are interchangeable. Also, I'm keeping the tbar knob as a spare. Thanks mate
Quick question. I just installed the knob, and it spins smooth but no crazy fast and easy, should I spin for more than one rotation? If so what did I do wrong, I tried several things
That seems strange mate. I would check the washers. Take note that this knob is much lighter than the egg knob, so it would not spin as fast as the egg knob.
You kind of look like my dad Really nice Saltiga though! I reckon you’re going to catch some big ones mate! Did some modifications to my BGMQ 14k and now the drag clicker sounds really nice and loud
@@TeamKingiesFishingCrew yeah he is! Can be a bit annoying sometimes but he was born in Vietnam so I can understand why hahaha The BGMQ is rubber sealed instead of mag sealed but I had a dream of the a Saltist in an MQ body and I even drew a concept for it, it looks great

Spot on, it was one of the selling point of this size for the Saltiga. The 14k spool is faster retrieve, the 10k & 8k is slower. Good for different types of lure fishing.
@@TeamKingiesFishingCrew nice to know, the gomexus knobs come in different sizes, do they all have same threading ? if i want to put 38mm on the reel rather then the 45mm will it still work the same?
have you ever been spooled??? I have and I'd never use a 8000, 10000 or 18000 spool(not anymore), only the 14000 and the 20000 spools, if you don't need the capacity it doesn't matter, if you do hook somethin' big it's essential and it's only 10g (1/3 oz) difference, not worth to go with the smaller spools, the big one doesn't hurt and brings only benefits!

We really can't avoid scratches when rock fishing, and it hurts every single time 😰

Hey mate, the 2020 Saltiga series spools in the 8000,10000 and 14000 are all compatible between those 3 sizes.
what size of knob you have mate 47mm? thanks
Yep, that's the one mate
@@TeamKingiesFishingCrew which washer and where you placed it please as having the same issue of the play
Does it have the same original Daiwa Dura drag and drag grease in those aftermarket spools.
I believe so, because SLP is actually owned & made by Daiwa
@@TeamKingiesFishingCrew ah didn't know that. Good to know.
Hey buddy
Do you mind where you bought the knob I’m trying to swap my certate sw
I bought it from www.isofishinglifestyle.com.au

I just got a brand new saltiga when i reel it sounds like metal gridning is that normal?
No, that's not normal. Take it back to where you bought it from and ask them to look at it.
@@TeamKingiesFishingCrew so when you're reeling do you hear any sound at all?
@@TeamKingiesFishingCrew sounds like it's coming from the rotor
@@jpt2026 mine does make some noise. But mine has been thrashed and needs a servicing.

Hey buddy the power knob has 2 size which one did you get
Hey mate. I got this from ISO, and there was two types to choose from, egg & round. Obviously I got the round one. There was only 1 size available.
@@TeamKingiesFishingCrew according to the daiwa catalogue the round power knob has two size
@@TeamKingiesFishingCrew I think there's one for the 18k up and one for 14k down
It's all in Japanese writing. All I can read it says L, which I assume is for large, and it weighs 27grams.
@@TeamKingiesFishingCrew was it possible to keep the gold shaft with the gold knob?

Reel looking schmick bro! 😎
does 8000 drag knob fit the 14000 spool ?
Yes, it's exactly the same drag knob
very nice bro! thanks for the video… i’m not a fan of the egg knob either so i’ll grab the power knob. yewww
Definitely feels nicer with the round power knob
Mate you should have ask Gabriel to order you the saltiga amberjack special
By changing the knob and smaller spool you made the reel lighter
You're right, definitely lighter.
Is the saltiga 14000 the same size as the saltiga 8000 (weight, body, bearings etc) just a different size spool ?
The SLP spool and round knob is lighter than the stock one, so it should be lighter overall. I bought it because I like the look.
The actual body of the reel is the same for 8k, 10k and 14k.
