Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the content.

Nice man, glad I was able to help! What's the biggest fish you've caught on it?

Nice man!! Did you make a vid?

Thanks man!

That's sick man! Okuma has definitely stepped their game up

I agree man, flounder is outstanding tablefare. I am going to my flounder hole as we speak.

@BeachBomberFishing I hope you make a video. Show us your set up and bait.

@BeachBomberFishing this weekend 50's for the low 70's for the high. Gonna be good catching. 👍

@dheasley2 ill be at the dike

@@TboneSTEAK111 hell yeah. You know the good spot on the right? Between the island and buoy.

Lmfao how did you do that!?

@@BeachBomberFishing I used to be a dispatcher and my company would deliver to my house so they delivered it and said it was “missing “ so Amazon refunded my account 😂 I picked up another 1 I wanna get into conventional reels so I just ordered the cortez and a 12ft longitude it’s on sale on Amazon rn for $70

Can't stand a thief.

How you like that ultegra?

lol ill respond to that i have the xtd version casts a mile a its a nice reel i use it for pier fishing really nice reel @@BeachBomberFishing

@@BeachBomberFishing Its a nice reel smooth and and all that shimano stuff but it took me a minute to get used with the insta drag, i use it for pompano fishing here in east fl and i was putting all that drag for no reason accidentally. It helps when i cast tho max drag in a few turns lol

there's one on my channel.... 😏

Along the sides in the grass there everywhere u can use dead fish to get a bunch together

It can, depending on how much weight you're casting.

@@BeachBomberFishing yeah definitely most the time I’m throwing 8+ozs

Why you use braid….

@@jacobmcvay123 you’d get your ass beat if you go out and use braid for bottom fishing on the east coast

Old timer here, still use my 1 piece custom 12' surf rods w/my vintage Garcia Mitchell 498 reels ( manual bail ) can't beat them, been using them since the late 69, still going strong !

🤣🤣🤣, I'm gonna make a comprehensive casting video soon.

Yeah man, the squall is quiet. Idk that anything beats a sealine clicker lol. Although, the clicker on the cortez is pretty loud.

Man, that's some thick leader, max I would use is 50lb at the jetty

I prefer the cortez, it looks cleaner, and the mag is way better.

@@BeachBomberFishing thank you for the reply. I was debating on which to get. Ima look into getting a Cortez.

He explains it @5:44 The casting cannon. The main reason I use conventional reels almost exclusively… is cause I don’t want my finger torn up 😂 Gonna have to give that casting cannon a try!

The Cortez casts much better

Thanks bud

Yeah, a very old video. I've had a ton of jew subscribers since then.

I am gonna be doing baitcasters next. I have a few baitcasters I use for lures and baits. Some of them have clickers too.

@@BeachBomberFishing I primarily fish between Bob Hall & PINS. I use bait casters almost exclusively. It’s much easier to hit bomb ass casts w/ a tuned revolver vs a spinning reel. I will add that I own an Okuma 8K & w/ 40 lb braid I can still clear the third bar w/ shrimp, ghost shrimp, etc w/ out getting my feet wet. *I’m not a big fan of stepping on rays, etc, so I learned to cast proficiently.

Tbh, I wouldn't know, depends on what rod you pair them with.

@@BeachBomberFishing both on equal rods? I noticed the 8k has a longer spool 45mm Vs 35mm so should be the longer caster?

@lloydtyler4456 both on equal rods, probably the 8k. The 8k also has the superior lime clicker, but.... The flite has a much more stout spool shaft. The flite does not wobble one bit under heavy load, the 8k does.

Not if you have the money to purchase an avet.

All day long Avet not worth the money. Even the dodgy imports coming in

@@BeachBomberFishing Thanks man, ELITE as always.

@@fredflintstone676 Dodgy imports?

@@muayadalmoosa3651 yes lots coming in from Malaysia no guarentee

Good idea

Thanks to many you tubers don't do knot tying

I have never done a back cast. I've seen nick from breakaway do it.

@@BeachBomberFishing I think it’s actually his cast. I saw him do it with a 9/0 against the drag almost 20 years ago. He was wicked with that big chunk of bait and dinosaur of a reel.

Seawolf park

I don't have use for that small of a reel right now.

Thanks, I appreciate it! I like this much better than the tubing you mentioned.

It's a basic custom build. The rod blank is a stradfast.

@@BeachBomberFishing Thanks

I have the shark gear. I sold all my avets because all the knobs ended up wearing down so bad. It pissed me off big time. I had to send them all back to get knobs replaced, ot wasn't worth it. 4 out of 6 avets knobs wore down, ridiculous.

On the penn reels, after making 3 review videos that did very well, I sent them an email in regards to sponsorship, they said no, so I sold them too. Didn't wanna give them any free advertising on my channel.

@@BeachBomberFishing and the avets?

@@BeachBomberFishing oh I didn’t read the other comment lol 😂

That is a custom steadfast blank

It’s available now. So is it’s evil dark twin, the big pit carp reel Obsidian.

Nah man didn't go, way too many people for me.

Both of these reels will outcast the shimano. Did you get a shimano spheros?

@@BeachBomberFishing yes

Also it is a 15 foot ugly stick

Should I return it and get the one you showed I just got today haven't used it

Love them, great reels, especially the SX MC

@@BeachBomberFishing thank you for your in put love the channel and dedication!!

I have, I don't like them. The clickers on the baitrunners are way too quiet for surf fishing, not do the provide enough resistance when using the bait runner mode. A small wave will set off the clicker.

I've used that reel, it has a ton of line wobble. It's decent for the price I guess.

Bro, I had the same thoughts on the squall. It felt way too plasticky and weak. The cortez definitely feels better.

@@BeachBomberFishing I caught a 28 pound catfish on it handle it good . I hope I can test it on a 80 pounder lol stay cool honeboy

Van staal can't cast worth a 💩

Good idea

Fr man it’s been a challenge of my own

Could you provide links please 🙏

Like I said in the video, I've had the 8k for a year, absolutely no problem. I've ripped several reels throughout the past and have promoted them if I like them. I used a lot of avets, funny thing is that people started complaining because they were 'high end reels' and they were unattainable for a lot of anglers. Which is why I now started using these udget surf reels. I like them, if I didn't, I wouldn't use them. I am extremely picky with gear.

Avet. Used them in the USA not everything they are cracked up to be. And in recent years the build V corrosion has gone down hill big time

You logged in?

Last year all o showed was avet reels. I change stuff up every year. You should be happy that one of the youtubers you watch is moving up and getting nice gear for free

@@BeachBomberFishing Hey I love free stuff as much as the next guy. It’s just good to highlight why you’re glazing one brand and why your preference is what it is.

I mean bro, I have done like 3 other reviews of long cast reels lol. I did a review on the penn fathom casting special, I did a review on the penn squall casting special, penn spinfisher long cast, ultegra long cast. Were you not around when I made those videos? I ain't selling out at all. I used to make a lot of videos with my avets lol, people were saying I was being elitist fishing expensive reels lol. Now I'm showcasing good budget reels, and now people are complaining and calling me a sellout lol. Can't make everyone happy lol

You are expecting too much for a reel that's only $100. Idk about you man, but I have fished the 8k hard af for 2 years with no problems. I haven't eve serviced the reel or anything lol. I think your comparison to a $200 is unfair. A better comparison would be a shimano speed master surf, that reel is super flimsy, non existent drag clicker, that's $160, tons of spool wobble. If you don't like it, cool. I fish it hard af and never had a problem. I also know what to expect from different price points. I fish this reel, up to an $800 spinning reel.

Nothing but NALGASPALDAS

😂😂😂

I am, it takes talent to do so

Yeah it does wobble a bit. I've never had an issues with that though. The new okuma flite doesn't seem to do that.

@BeachBomberFishing I was looking at that reel next lol Okuma never disappoints

I don't think they're interested in sponsoring content creators.
