    The reel has 13 bearing. 12+1. There are 2 bearings in each handle knob.. really well made fishing machine. Tight tolerance in side plates, handle shaft bushing. I am amaze.

    CNC bar stock frame and sideplate still doesn't make up for the rest of the engineering and quality of the internals, spool, braking design, and other pieces of refinement on the reel. The cost is still a bit high in comparison to made in Japan reels from the Two-Headed Dragon from the Land of The Rising Sun.
    It is a very kool concept and the frame/body/sideplate are the main selling points, still there isn't any data or information given on the gear cut, actual material grade of the gears, material of the spool, and actual design and application of the mag brakes.
    Take apart an OG Gen I Zillion or Swedish made Abu, and look at the internals, and you will find more quality metal in the components than most any reel today, even from current Daiwa/Shimano/Pure Fishing OEM Abu, and the frame while not CNC single bar stock is extremely rigid and strong. FWIW, the sideplate, if it doesn't bear any weight and torsional stress, doesn't need to be metal, so long as the set plate is metal.
    Still, a kudos to Bates, however this reel lacks true advancement and refinement on the internals, and even the basic design of the line guide material, IMO.

      As a die hard JDM guy I agree this is not up to par. For me it is two fold. Cast control and price.
      I think your argument on internals is a bit off. I may conceded gears with cut and material.
      But all the other parts, are essentially identical. A Steez is plastic internals just the same.
      The biggest difference will be cast control. DAIWA SV is a game changer. Throwing spinnerbaits into the wind with zero fear.

      @@otroflores91 Yes they do. I'm guessing, he wants ported for weight reduction and so water doesn't sit on the spool. I fish only saltwater and there are plenty of reports of people pulling off braid after sitting a while and the spools being pitted. A lot of people put Teflon tape (or more janky, electrical tape) down first to protect the spools.

    How smooth is the reel compared to a daiwa or Shimano ? Any gearyness to the retrieve …

    • @fishing_reps
      @fishing_reps  Год назад +2

      The Salty 150 is especially smooth on the retrieve. The pinion gear has a super smooth surface and runs into the bearing. The Bates 150 is also smooth, but definitely the Salty is even more buttery. Both have 10+1 bearings so as long as your bearings are in good working order it will remain smooth.

      BUT, there is essentially nothing different about the construction of this reel.
      Even a $700 Steez is made with the same plastic internals.
      Do some of you think that these ultra-lightweight reels are made of all metal?

      - cast control
      - JDM
      - magnesium (not saltwater friendly)
