Nice video man. I hope you enjoy the new reel👌 I love Man cave, their prices are extremely affordable and the guy is super friendly. I went there a few days ago to get reel grease, and he just gave me his tube for free.

I have 2 6000's and they are great. The only problem I can see with the 8000 is that it uses the same size main gear as the 6000. With bigger rotor, spool and longer handle it will be harder on the main gear...but time will tell.

Thanks for sharing, we'll see what happens, but overall it feels like a steady reel. But like you said time will tell. 🤙🏻🎣🎣

@@danielmedhurst5737 well it seems that @Jaco Jonker was correct about that gear, my 8000 is in for repairs as the gear has packed up, also pretty pricey to repair, not sure if I will invest in another Big Boss. Maybe I just had my share of bad luck with it. But everyone entitled to their own opinion, I'm just giving my experience with it. 🤙🏻🎣

Hi I enjoy your videos and I would like to ask you some info on the big boss 8000... I have stumbled upon one and would like to fill it with braid...what amount of braid did it take to fill it was a spool of 300m enough ?

Hi Shaun, thank you, I'm glad you enjoy watching my videos. Much appreciated. It all depends on the thickness of the braid. Different brands also make a difference. 300m should be more than enough depending on the thickness, also, do not fill up to the top, keep some space open. 🎣🎣🤙🏻

Any further update? I am looking at buying this reel.8000 seems sold out at most places. 6000 is easy to come by. IS it worth it, or should I buy the Okuma Salina 2?

Hi there, 8000 is a good reel, 6000 not bad either but depends on what you are targeting. Best to get one that can take the punch if you targeting larger species🎣🎣🤙🏻

Raushan sieed Hi, it depends where you catch, 14ft is best for beach, 12ft for reefs, this is what works for me. If you looking at name brands, there are many different brands, best would be to visit your nearest fishing tackle store, in Helderberg area you can go to The Man Cave, Fishing Republic or Somerset Sport. I will be posting a video soon where I use a 12ft with my Big Boss 8000, this works for me. No specific name brand. Hope you come right. 🎣🤙🏻

Hi Krishen, well it gave a couple of good throws and packed up after a few months, cost R500 to repair and service and its still going strong. Not made for reefs but good for shore. Actually got me another reel from Rovex, costs 1/3 of the Big boss and going to test it this weekend so you will see it in one of the upcoming videos. 🎣🎣🤙🏻
