My favorite overall reel is still my Daiwa Regal X 2500c. The main difference being I got my iteration 23 years ago and it weighs almost 12oz. The anti-reverse is classic Daiwa instant, all the important internals are metal, and I'd wish anybody luck on trying to flex the frame stem. I may eventually swap out the old body bushings but they're glorified spacers so it wouldn't do anything but change the feel...something I've gotten quite attuned to.

Love the budget recognitions. Another budget guy is the guy who knows his stuff(cough: watches all your vids), is an above average fisherman, but doesn't get to go out very much, so he doesn't need a $200 bells and whistles reel. Also, some anglers might prefer a budget reel due to the weight of it to balance the budget rod. It may not make sense to throw a super light $200 reel on a $100 rod due to the weights of each item. Love these vids! One last thing, if you're not in a rush, it really pays to search around and shop the sales. You can easily get mid range stuff Matt and Tim mention for budget prices.

I have a Diana and two Shimano spinning reels and all three are phenomenal, but I’m going to give it a while before I buy another 13 fishing spinning reel. The Prototype X I bought was not good at all, and it was like $150. It seemed good at first, but a small bur on the bell would catch and break my line. The line wouldn’t always go over to the guide when you’re reeling. I don’t want to crap on the whole company though. I have one of their rods and I love it, and it was only like $80. It’s my main wacky rig rod. I’ll be keeping an eye on the spinning reels, I’ve heard a lot of people saying they are getting better. Great video!

Nice video guy's! I own 2 of the 17' Exsence C3000MHG and absolutely love them. I use them for power finesse. For finesse, I have 7 Vanquish's in the 19' and 23' models and they're also next level, IMO, the finesse KING of the hill. I also own the 19' Stella 1000, the 22' Stella c2000SHG and an old but still smooth as glass 2002 Stella FA 2500. The Vanfords are great reels but come in behind the Vanquish's but the price difference is something to consider. Someone's going to have to pry my Exsence's, Vanquish's and Stella's from my cold, dead hands.🤣

Maybe it's just because it's on heavier rod with heavier line, but still. I think, right now, Pflueger is the best you can get under 100$.

I used to only use budget Shimano spinning reels basically as on a set of guest/backup set ups on stream fishing set ups and used upper middle range diawa spinning reels on my personal rods especially bass and ultralight trout. The exsense was definitely the first Shimano that felt amazingly smooth and solid at the same time. I have a few nice okumas, a Pfluger magnesium ultralight, a couple of big worm drive ticas for the beach rod and my big catfish rod. I still feel like diawa has the better value reels in the 100-200 range, okuma in the 35-80, over 200 I try to stay out of but I would say pick up and handle the Shimanos and diawas in your range and see what makes you smile.

Another great video guys! You two make such a great point about the drag systems being the main area of concern pertaining to performance, reliability and endurance. Because you do, I think you should consider at least mentioning quickly on each reel if they have the “back reel” switch on them. I’ve been back reeling my entire life because I am ALWAYS connected to the fish that way. As soon as a reels drag kicks in, an angler has just handed ALL control of the fish over to the reel. I would rather lose a fish due to my error than to a drag system. It has also taught me far more about staying connected to any fish on any gear during the fight. You guys are awesome and in all these years of subscribing, I don’t think I have ever made a suggestion. Keep up the great work, we need you both for our ongoing growth and success in this game of angling.

Just realized as I’m watching the video that I’ve never purchased or used a higher end spinning reel! When it comes to spinning combos, I spend the bulk of my money on the rod because I want it to be as sensitive and lightweight as possible. The most expensive spinning reel I own now is the Shimano Miravel which is a great reel at it’s price point.

I bought a daiwa regal lt 2500 on sale for $39. Definately impressed for that kind of $. Sticker on the shelf said $69 but rang up $39. Not sure if it was a mistake but its nice enough that i may go back and snag another...

@jeffnaval4894 good to hear man. I'm still extremely impressed by the Regal LT. Ended up buying another in the 3000 size. Without a doubt the best $39 reels money can buy...my only concern was durability but so far so good.

Great video! Just subscribed. I can`t make my decision between Shimano Vanford and Daiwa Luvias FC LT both in 2500S size. I`d like to use the reel for some rainbow trout fishing in fast moving rivers. Versatility will be an advantage because I`d like to pair them with Gamakatsu Luxxe Yoihime Hanna S610UL to do some offshore jigging for smaller species. What would be your recommendation? Thank you in advance! P.S. I got Miravel C2000SHG today, just because it felt sooo light in hand, really good reel to have especially considering its price.

You guys explain there is a difference in the Shimano line for power vs finesse. I really like the feel of the older Sahara reels in that $70-$80 price range. It's like it takes a little more torque to get it turning, but once it does, it is very smooth. Can I assume that is the "connected" feel you talk about in the power lineup? I have never been able to put my hands on the higher end reels you guys feature, so I have nothing to compare it with. When I pick up a Vanford, I don't care for it much. I ended up going with the Tatula LT line, but that isn't part of the quetion. It (Vanford) is clearly lighter than the Sahara, but it feels quite different. You guys place the Vanford into the finesse lineup. Would you further put the Sahara into the power lineup, albit at a lower price point, and would that explain why they feel so different?

Something of note is that the Miravel is part of the Magnumlite (finesse) series only becuase Shimano marketing says it is, not because it was designed like the rest of the series. The Nasci is not even offically part of the Coresolid (power) series, it really is just a Miravel minus some features.

I used to be a big PENN fan. Now I lean towards Shimano. I’ve tried Daiwa. Love the BG and picked up the Ballistic LT. I’ve had my Ballistics bail snap shut on me multiple times when going to cast. I find it hard to believe it’s user error as I’ve never had any of my other reels including the BG do it to me. I would like to try the MQ line of reels from Daiwa but I’m not a fan that they don’t sell a tool that’s easy to get to service their reel. Plus they don’t have the magnetic oil available that I’m aware of. Only oil is on eBay that’s not authentic and it’s very pricey.

I can’t see the vanford for 200 plus. I’ve got plenty over 20 different flavors of reels I can take a songuylong ? And use diawa drag felt and grease them up and put them top bottom of the drag set and the 2500 reel u never know it was a 25$ reel. The drag is super slick enough noise and sings fish on

Something that is never mentioned When talking about reel 34:18 's whether bait casters or spinning Is the quality of the bearings in the reels. Not necessarily the quantity of the bearings. This is what helps with the longevity of your reels, The smoothness, And will also influence the price. In a lot of cases it is just a way of competing with the numbers some other real has And does not Is always affect the performance.

The only reason most newer reels don't impress me much is how many of them are all about weight relief in ounces. My old Daiwa Regal is impressively heavy, and I'm a sufferer of chronic arthritis with laughably small wrists. I've never thought to myself "I sure which this thing were made of balsa wood and plastic".

Great video guys. Im from the uk so no bassin he unfortunately 🥲…. I’m looking at making some changes to some of my fishing gear this year. I’ve only been lure fishing for about three years. So compared to you guys, I am very much a beginner. .. learning a lot from watching some of your videos. my first two spinning reels were the Shimano Stradic CI4+ Ones …. I have a couple of other Shimano spinning reels and although they have been superseded by the vanford I’m thinking of changing my spinning rods and Plus obviously money talks. Anyway we watch the videos and do you have a video or have you got a video coming up regarding light and ultralight spinning rods ? . Also in your expertise do you think it is worth getting a custom built spinning rod over buying a “ named “ one ?? just a thought.. I know it’s a lot of questions to ask but you guys know the score. All the best and I have just just subscribed. Thank you so much and look forward to hearing from you. John from Barnard castle , uk 👍🎣😁

So many good products out on the market now. The only problem I have with Shimano is that I have large hands and I do not choke up on my spinning reel. Shimano stems from where it mounts and where it goes up has a hard turn angle which pinches my finger. Makes it uncomfortable for me.
