Don't have this one, but it seems to be hell of a deal for less than $25 USD, I do have the Zeus and am extremely happy with it! I am looking forward to viewing your testing!!!!!
@@TheConstantAngler the little wafer looked with it was a last minute thing cut by hand. And the centre of it had an impression that the spool shaft made. That's what the noise was, kind of like then someone tries to start a fire by rubbing a stick. I'm yet to cast with it again, focusing on the purelure now.
@@yep.fishing might be wrong size plastic spool shaft extension. I’m not a lover of this I must admit. I would imagine it will wear the plastic eventually
@@TheConstantAngler yea I reackon you could sand it down it drill/mount a hole in the middle. It definitely needed it though because it had a tonne of side to side play even with the tension cranked. It's as if something is wrong on the tension side because my friend doesn't have that issue.
Thank you for this - love your reviews. I can suggest to upgrade the spool-bearings on the Commando to ceramic for even better performance. I've been casting very light lures with it no problem. Recently got the Mavllos Delicacy C602 and am very much enjoying it.
@bakasvilisrenatas9990 it’s a bit small really. You want something more a 200 - 300 size. It will throw those lures but will struggle to bring in a good sized Pike as it doesn’t have enough drag.
Hello, can you please tell me what magnets did you use to make the brake stronger on the soloking acura? I also think that it is a little bit underbraked...
It’s cheap on AliExpress say £30 delivered but I wouldn’t buy it. For £15-20 more you could get the Acura Hicc 50 pro with two spools and better tolerances.
@@TheConstantAngler thanks i look into them .50pound not bad for bfs reel just starting out..going to try out westin swim glide bait in 9gm weekend for bit see what bites...
Hahaha my eyesight is starting to go as well Adrian 😅😅😅 the reel does look like a bit of a chunky turtle. Were you wading in the on the water portion??? Yea, I agree with you that the reel can cast fairly well but that there are other options out there that are a bit better… I’ll likely keep mine to use as a salt water beater reel haha. Cheers Adrian!
@@TheConstantAngler agreed regarding the QC. I have a feeling that DMK makes this reel and given that DMK makes KK reels and they also have had a lot of QC issues in the past it might not be a big surprise… hope they resolve these issues but I dunno I think I’d probably go with a commando over this next time like you suggested…

Veeeery interested in this, both my friend and I have them and have had some very bad experiences
Had seen the problems you had

@yep.ultralight the QC is very hot and miss. Shame could be a great reel

Cheers mate. Might try some
Is this reel good for catching pike with 10-20 gram baits?

Really comprehensive 👍
Cheers. Thanks for watching

4x0.5mm N52. Hope that helps
Do you have shematic for this reel?
@@Renaldas25 I’m afraid it didn’t come with one. I shall see if somebody in the community has one and get back to you.
Nice review.
Cheers mate. Bit long winded but I prefer to get out in the bank rather than just do an unboxing before I give an opinion.
Those ko spearhead are nice!!
It is a damn good copy
How much to buy would it be ok for starting bfs f8shing

I was wading mate. It will be a good reel if they sort out the QC
