Daiwa FUEGO LT review
Daiwa really has put out a pile of great sub $200 spinning reels.
The Tatula LT is spectacular and the BG is the $99 egg beater to beat in terms of modern rock solid reliability. But with the Fuego LT being identically priced. Where does it stand. How does the Fuego LT compare to the Exceler LT, BG and shimanao Nasci and Okuma Epixor? Lets find out

ABSOLUTELY CRAZT PRICE ON THAT OKUMA EPIXOR LT amzn.to/2T9w4m1 Shown at 29:27 45$ shipped Rivals the Fuego and Nasci in performance....just lacks the more premium gearing. Rigid body, very smooth and great line lay and drag.

This is exactly why I like to use only my vintage reels that are 50 years old and work perfectly in saltwater. They take a great deal of tender loving care but rarely have they given me problem. They are not refined by any means but they always work particularly after I totally restore them. Great video as always!. - Chris

Excellent video!!! Very helpful, informative, and educational. I’m not so afraid of trying to perform maintenance on my spinning reels now. I’ve been fishing bass tournaments for a few years and was looking at upgrading my spinning reels. I don’t have tons of money, so I can’t go too expensive. So I decided to check out reviews between Shimano and Diawa because popular opinion is that they are the best. I looked at comparisons of Nasci/ Fuego and Sedona/ Exceler. I currently have a couple Okuma reels, one of them is about 15 years old and the other about 10. I have not treated them very well and they both still work great. After getting to the end of this video and hearing the comments about the Epixor I’m reconsidering my purchase. I have no reason to be loyal to any one brand over another, but if I can save some money and still end up with good quality reels then I’ll stick with Okuma. I’m not fishing salt water and catching tarpon, I’m going after 3 to 4 lb smallies on Lake Saint Clair. If that Epixor lasts half as long for twice the price of my $30 Stratus from Dick’s Sporting Goods it’s worth it! Thanks again for such a helpful video👍🏼

Have two Nasci's (4 + 5000 size) and they are super super smooth. Agree with you on the hex key handle, and I am not crazy about the bail arm which feels a little flimsy and other than that I do like the Nasci. The slow oscillation on the epixor does look awesome. Would love to see what difference it would make in casting distance between itself, the LT and Nasci?? Anyway, thank you yet again for another super video. All the best.

I bought the Okuma Epixor LS early this past summer. It was super geary right out of the box, so I sent it back to the store. They went on to lose it somehow, so they gave me a replacement Epixor XT (20 size) as an apology. And again, totally useless. Geary and super tight. Send it back for a replacement tet again and got another replacement that was fine. Still a bit tight, but very usable. Been using that one since the end of June and it has hold up quite well to some smaller pike and larger perch. It’s actually become a bit smoother over time. The reel (and bail) seems super solid. I also have had(one was stolen) a couple of Okuma Inspiras.(similar design to the epixors) They also have this slight tightness. The first couple I tried in the store were very geary and unpleasant before I found a usable one. The materials and designs are great, but Okuma seems to lack in the qc department, at least on the newer spinning reels. I live in south eastern Norway so I fish mostly freshwater. 10 to 1 fresh to saltwater fishing trips.

I am a Shimano guy but do have a couple of Daiwa Steez bait casting reels. Currently I am shopping for a Daiwa spinning reel and narrows down to either a Ballistic LT or a Tatula LT. My question is, is the Ballistic worth the extra money or should I just get the Tatula? I am digging the flat black look of the Tatula. lol

@LunaRendezvous 5 жыл бұрын

With regards to your comment about the unscrewing of the handle, and that it is easier to bump it undone on Diawa than Shimano, try flipping it over to right hand retrieve and see if it is the same for both sides, my Diawa Backbay is a little different on one side of the main gear shaft, it protrudes a little more on the RHS.

@StriperPursuit 5 жыл бұрын

So I have a legalis and fuego both 2500 sized that I put a lot of striper torture through and they both ended up having the same problem after a lot of fights in high current. They ended up making a loud gear grinding sound that you could also feel while reeling and while they still functioned and were fairly smooth-ish they were annoying to use. I've opened both of them up and everything still looks fine but they still have the same feel afterwards. Do you think the gears could've messed up in a different way cause I can't figure it out? I'm upgrading to the ballistic hoping it won't do that.

I have a Fuego 2500XH that has been great on specks and reds up to 36" or so. I used a little grease on the inside to help seal it up, like I did with my BG 2500. On the larger reds you can feel a little flex, but it's not that significant IMO. The BG is certainly stiffer, my Stradic Ci4+ 3000FA is a little stiffer, but very similar feel. I'd have a hard time distinguishing the Ci4+ and the Fuego in the dark. You can buy 2 Fuego's and spool them with braid for less than the Ci4+ alone. Currently have a Spinfisher VI 2500 on the way, kinda thinking it will be a contender. Especially since I do a lot of wade fishing.

@riccardocarbo2479 4 жыл бұрын

Hey TA... Those hex handles just want to get a little closer to circular instead--they get circle envy--call it circumcision then? Moving on! The tight Okuma: I'm thinking, a slightly bent shaft; or does the rotor swing freely without the main-gear in tow; is there a washer under the shaft of the main gear shimming in to close for the pinion; is the pinion set squarely through with the rotor cup; oscillation gear axis out of round? I'm sure you're beyond this but you can try running a reel dry and "feeling" for where the friction is coming from. Try this: take out the main gear/handle stuff and rotate the rotor by itself. Slow? Yes? Then take out the shaft. Still slow? It's the bearings. But if you put the shaft in and it's fast, even as you pull up n down, it's the pressure of the gear when screwed down. Last thing I do, is look closely for wear that looks fresh n bright. That's "wear" where it's coming from. Chances are, there's a washer shimming pressure onto the main/pinion gear engroovement (I made that up just for you.) . I love all this stuff, so, clearly, I had to go on way too long. :) Good working TA. I like what you're doing. It actaully makes sense. Imagine!

@WeldingForJesus 10 ай бұрын

I know I'm late to the party and that you most likely found out of it by now, but for anyone looking at this down the line: 1) changing the shims ain't brain surgery, I'm no fine mechanics guy, and even I managed to fix my Fuego's shims, so you can too! Just be REALLY careful and take your time when working on the small rubber washer!!! It isn't quite as flimsy as it looks, but it is probably close to... 2) you know if you need to add or subtract a shim by how the line lay. If it is far back you need to remove (the spool going further back, allowing more line going in the front), and opposite; if the line is bulking up in the front, you add a shim to get the spool further up the shaft to get more line in the back. The latter was the case on my 2000 Fuego, and from what I've seen, it is the most common case on the Fuego. And yes: it absolutely solves the problem. My reel will probably work like a charm from now on, it just really jaded my opinion of it that I needed to do it at all.

I use fuego lt 5000cxg for shore jigging and plastic lures, some time i also throw poppers up to 40grms. Until 1day while jigging i hooked a queen fish about 2lbs when i reel it in the gear stacked. It feels like the gear on the shaft and the gear on the oversized gear was dislodged. I use this reel for about 6 mos, 4hrs every week end. When i finally get it work there is already clicking aound every time the spool goes down. It is so frustrating that it only last a few months. And it is so irritating to hear the clicking sound every time i crank.

Hi Scooby , is the daiwa ballistic LT 6000 really only have 26.4” line per handle turn? is it really lower than 2000 size??? is that an error they put online?

@TackleAdvisors 5 жыл бұрын

Hey man. It's slower than the reels I use for the surf but the 26" is incorrect. I think if I remember correctly I measured it at 32 or 33"

Love your videos. Honest no bs. The Epixor is a nice reel especially for the money. But with its 10lbs of drag in a 4000, it's strictly a fresh water reel.

Yeah... I spoke with Elias about it after I told him to snag one... He said the max drag wasnt enough for Jack's and reds

@@TackleAdvisors Exactly. But the Piscifun Carbon X has enough. Not sealed. But at the upper end of "budget" reels in my opinion. Big drag. www.piscifun.com/products/piscifun-carbon-x-lightest-carbon-spinning-reel?variant=12377854214167 I also think Elias would LOVE A Piscifun Alijoz 300 with its 33 lbs of drag and a nice single handle power knob for those huge Reds he catches when he fishes structure off shore. I'm not affiliated with Piscifun. They're just better than decent reels for the money.

I have a report: two new 4000 fuego lt's, that I have on emcast 1102m surf rods (great rods by the way) for less than 150 per setup. The fuegos were on sale for 70 bucks each, and I've got to say they have done well so far. I hooked a very fat & healthy 4 to 5 foot blacktip on a live croaker with one of these with 20lb braid that gave me a good couple of runs before it did an aerial spin and broke the line on impact. The shark did put some flex in the stem, but not bad, and the drag was maxxed out and I was palming the spool trying to break it off. On smaller fish , blues and pompano with 3 oz pyramids, no noticeable flex. I have a 5000 ballistic, very sweet, and yeah, no flex on that one using 30 lb braid, but it was three times the cost, for maybe 25% more fishing enjoyment. My bg's are now retired, I'm into light weight and smoothness, If I dunk either reel, I'll tear it down, but casting all day long, weight savings is king for me. I will be experimenting using the 4000's instead of my typical 2500's for inshore fish to take advantage of the larger spool diameters for casting distance. Thanks for the review!

If u had to choose one for smoothness,cast ability,toughness, durability which do u think would be the best to get ? I tired the Fuego and it was super smooth but I've not tried the others

@TackleAdvisors 4 жыл бұрын

Probably the new stradic. I'm really liking it... Haven't used it in the salt though. (I generally use larger capacity reels 250/30lb braid capacity and up for that)

@jimquantic 4 жыл бұрын

I wonder about a higher end comparison, Stadic C14 vs Ballistic, both a bit over 200 bucks.

I’ve seen a lot of your videos lately, I’ve learned a lot about reels this past months. Yet, I’ve still to learn why they call you scoob. Maybe only the ones that are a bit closer to your circle? Ahaha my curiosity sure brings me further down past the gears.

Hi there! I’ve been watching your channel for a long time and I love it. I’ve had a daiwa fuego for 2 years now, and I am having a problem with it that I can’t figure out. The drag works and the line roller works, but the sound of the drag is now silent. I took the reel apart to try to find something wrong with it, but I can’t diagnose a problem. Do you know what the issue could be?

@TackleAdvisors 4 жыл бұрын

First make sure the braid isn't slipping on the spool... That is the number one issue... If it's not... Remove the spool.. And there should be a little bent wire that clicks on the scalloped indents under the spool. If the wire snapped or is out of place that'll be your problem

@thelinecook 4 жыл бұрын

Tackle Advisors Tackle Advisors that could be the problem. I don’t see a wire there under the spool. Maybe I lost it somehow, Is there a part that I can buy to replace it? I really appreciate your response greatly! 👍

What size okuma do you have right there in the video? And I should also say that I also greatly appreciate every second of your time, honest reviews and solid content are very lacking and I find it more than helpful :)
