Adrian the reason why the Haibo’s drag clicker sounds so different from the BMC is due to the design. The Haibo uses a flute ring like the bmc but instead of a cam and spring style to create the clicking sound it uses a very thin leaf spring similar to what is used in spinning reels. I much prefer the cam and spring style as daiwa and Shimano both use this style for their clicker designs. Hope this info helps! Cheers Adrian!

Thank you for this - looks like a fab reel casting up to 30g. Just ordered one. New to BFS and recently got the Kastking Zephur. Still getting used to it but getting there. Great to have the option of heavier lures as I love bass fishing on the lures.

Very nice, personally I find that even the static "FTB" knockoff brakes seem to work better for me. I think the orientation to the spool of the magnets vs. for example a "magtrax" style system just is superior for my casting stroke at the very least. Now that the price of this reel is not absurdly overpriced as it has been up until recently I think I might pull the trigger to add it to my collection. I will also mention that your video's information and your opinions expressed have influenced my decision to most likely purchase this "Brownie"!!!!!!😀😀😀😀😀😁😁😁😁

@TheConstantAngler 5 ай бұрын

Glad I could help. I do prefer an FTB system. It just makes the reels less fussy

Mine came with Japanese bearings installed and a baggie with 6 extra Japanese bearings . I personally believe that's why mine is smoother than all my others .

Does anyone know if this is a better reel over over the Soloking Acrua? Ignoring the deep spool you can get. The Acrua has a bearing replacing with bushing because of saltwater use. That bearing was tough to replace and would rust? Is that 100 rated for saltwater?

@TheConstantAngler 5 ай бұрын

I would say the Acura is a better reel. It’s not Saltwater rated whereas the new Acura Pro is.

@TheFIFABoys 28 күн бұрын

What would you say is the max weight lure you can throw?

@TheConstantAngler 27 күн бұрын

I would say 15gr. It’s not that the reel will not throw higher but it’s whether the shallow spool will take it. You may have to use more end tension to throw heavier lures as the brakes might not cope. It did cope with 12gr though so it will go higher.

What's the best budget saltwater bfs reel you would recommend and rod?

@TheConstantAngler 5 ай бұрын

It all depends what size fish you are after. The rod of your choosing as all it needs is to be washed off after each trip and reel wise I would go for a Tsurinoya Dark Wolf Ultra, Genius or Elf for a standard sized reel or the Seasir Commando for a slightly bigger reel with more drag and a shallow plus deep spool. Spray them off after each trip paying particular attention to the spool lip and level wind.

@MrEastside619Fishing 5 ай бұрын

@@TheConstantAngler Thanks for responding...how about this reel would it be good for Saltwater...might also look into the Commando also.

@TheConstantAngler 5 ай бұрын

@@MrEastside619Fishing yes it would. Its brakes are the best of the bunch but it doesn’t come with a deep spool so this is why I didn’t say this one. If it holds enough line for you then yes. It’s a great reel.

Just checked the price on Aliexpress unfortunately now selling for £54.87 + VAT am looking for a new reel wonder what you think of it at this price is it still good value

@TheConstantAngler 9 ай бұрын

I think the Acura HICC 50 with two spools would be a better option at that price. Keep looking though as I’m sure I saw one pop up on one of the special offers.
