I have the black goofish rod paired with a spinning reel. Works great. Pulled some large halibut and lings with it.

I bought the same reel early last year. Prettiest thing ever . Spooled it with 30lb braid. The line slipped through the space between the spool and the frame and into some gearing. I removed the side plate to get it out and must have messed up something else when i reassembled it. Now useless. Hope your luck is better. Enjoy.

Wow sorry to hear that! Did you try contacting Gomexus? I'm sure they would help you out

@micahlowbe9067 Жыл бұрын

@@LivinSalty no. I think that since i messed up and prob voided any warranty that i should bring it to a “reel guy” near me. Well, i haven’t done that either. Procrastinator.

@LivinSalty Жыл бұрын

Hey I hear ya, we are all busy now-a-days haha. I think it would be worth it though to shoot Gomexus an email. Ask for advise on how to fix it and get back together, I agree I don't think there would be any warranty with it anymore. Not sure though, but worth a shot! Ya never know until you ask!

I also have a goofish fishing rod, I combined it with an Ocean Jigger. This rod is very popular in Asia. but if you use it for jigging for a long time, it will drain your energy cuz solid blank must be heavy for jigging. Choose torayca blank fishing rod, like piratez slower if you like asia fishing rod. This rod more lighter, nice tone and you can jigging all day. 😁

No, we have a same rod. I know that goofish fishing rod are light. just try pirates strike slower if you want to. You might be surprised like me. Besides being very light, this fishing rod also has a good tone and strong lifting power. I just want to share my experience bro. 👌🙏

Hey any updates on the rod be any chance? Have you used at all and how is it holding up?

@LivinSalty 2 жыл бұрын

unfortunately, I have tried slow-pitch jigging many times and still have yet to catch a fish using it :( Rod so far is holding up fine, but again, it hasn't seen any fish so it really hasn't been put to the test.

@initiald1980 Жыл бұрын

i hope your combo is holding up. personally i would go for some other brands, especially the rod. a little more expensive but also more reliable. i have heard not great reviews with the gofish. but i hope i works for you

Oh no that sounds horrible! Was it a Goofish slow-pitch rod? Did you contact them? I'm sure they would've made things right. I still have yet to catch a fish on slow-pitch but have fished it a bunch of times and its been fine! I have 2 of them now

I just finished building myself my first slow pitch rod and I spiraled the guides to the right. Oops. Lol I really haven't heard anything convincing that it actually matters.

@LivinSalty 2 жыл бұрын

I've heard all sorts of theories on which way the spiral should go. So many different opinions that I personally think it is inconsequential which way you wrap it

@kylepearce3601 Жыл бұрын

The reason for this is so you can level your line as you reel in by just pushing the line over with your thumb . As you crank, the wrap of the rod should pull the line back to the side it spirals to.if it's built correctly the first guide should be a couple degrees off center to facilitate this
