2022 Shimano Aldebaran BFS DOMINATES the TROUT MAGNET???

[@timeintheoutdoors]

Hello... I see people having issues with GoPro's all the time. I personally shoot with DJI action's I have never had a single issue with any of them. No freezing, no lost footage, and no SD card issues. Also, the stabilization is so good! If I were you I would switch to a DJI Action 3. Keep up the good work, I enjoy watching your videos. I'm currently waiting on my Aldebaran BFS and can't wait to use it. The JDM SLX BFS and Curado BFS are nice to use and wanted to upgrade. Tight lines!

[@Socalfisher85]

I hear you about the gopro's. Switched to Insta-360 Go-3 with no problems.

[@vieterisikaFI]

The silent tune actually does more than just keeps the spool and bearing stable. It seals the gap between the frame, bearing and spool shaft. Those who like to fish saltwater it is a great improvement as it also makes harder for water to get inside the reel, since the spool shaft area was one of the main reason how water gets inside the reel. The only way now water can get through there is through the bearing itself. Also water gets easily through the worm gear section as well, but they have started to seal that area with o-rings as well. Overall I like this new silent tune. Now I have to agree the previous spring loaded silent tune was more user friendly when adjusting the spool tension, that is a fact. But for me and many others, it doesn’t really affect much at all since the spool tension is set once you get the reel and then left alone…

Nice fish buddy great video as usual and I have to say that you selected the perfect verse for our times to open the video

[@zankyou101]

Always enjoyed watching your test casting videos. Lots of good information. But nothing beats watching someone hooking, fighting and sometimes landing fish like in this video.

[@mindfuljazzy1135]

Amazing! This video was exactly what I was looking for! I really want this reel! Gotta save up!

[@philliplawson2932]

Love the video and 1 of my favorite rods I have both spinning and casting!

[@TailDancer_55]

Thanks for your honest opinion on the '22 I agree it took a bit to get it tuned in from the get go but it definitely does impress. Looking forward to your future case battle videos. I think the alphas holds its own as well IMHO. ❤️

[@ДенисГудок]

Спасибо вам за ваш труд- очень интересно смотреть и много пользы!

[@debcolville9296]

awesome test, I got a scorpion dc last year off your recommendation and love it, would love get a a BF reel to fish for trout

[@quanloikid1]

You made my buy the new 2022 Aldebaran LH. I didn't want to because with the magnet fix the DWU is really great. However, with 122y/dollar, no tax and free shipping from Digitaka,,......as we used to say in the AirCav, I really owed it to myself

[@up2specks978]

It’s strange when you think about the amount of RH people who love left handed baitcasters. I think maybe it’s the people who used spinning reels growing up with the handle on the left side and later transitioned to baitcasters. I’m RH and my first baitcaster was an Abu 5500 and I always thought it somewhat strange to have the handle on the right. Went left handed on the baitcasters and never went back lol. Great video!

[@firdhaus_saleh]

Love the new color of this Aldebaran!

[@Socalfisher85]

I stopped using gopro's after I got the Insta-360 Go-3. No issues whatsoever with it. I did keep my GoPro hero session 4, the only gopro that doesn't give me problems.

[@shmaxx00]

Battle btw Aldeberan22 vs Gekkabijin (Alphas Air TW) vs Aldebaran16+Avail definetelly needed.

[@savetsanulov7149]

Ооо, наши уже тут 😂😂👍

[@felixklassen9187]

T3-Air is the best pfs

[@Dbl_OG_13]

What is the lure weight rating? All i ever find is that its casts as low as 1 gram. But what's the highest its rated for?

[@mneacsu]

Hi! Nice info about the aldebaran. I bought it recently and i see an issue with it. Sometimes the spool feels like is not working properly (it feels like with heavy breaks) and if i press the release button and reel in again is working fine. On my other reels this dose not happen.

[@TheMass33]

Brotha I'll put that BFS left hand to work here in the Tampa Bay. I use my left hand to retrieve. It feels natural to me.

[@abulsar]

Thank you for the informative & thoroughly researched content you’re continuously presenting in your videos. I am oscillated between going with a Curado BFS or an Aldebaran BFS 22, I am quite aware that you have tested both baitcasters. Which one do you recommend regardless of price difference?

[@backtonatureitis]

To be honest I am not impressed by the new reel. On the other hand the reel test is on top as always. Good job mate!

[@viper4hdz]

Is there a huge difference within the hg and xg model? I’d like to pick one up for bass fishing.

[@InfinityFishing]

Nice to see you having fun with a nice size catch, strawberry on the cake 🍰

[@quanloikid1]

The new TTC5102S 's new model handle. The bottom section is longer and more comfortable for your hand.

[@THEREELTEST]

Im aware of them, but im either going to spend $600 on a JDM Crystar rod or get a custom rod made. The TTC510s are great for the price but a bit too stiff

[@SuperCarcaju]

Hi,sugestion to LINE for bsf ,marca and modelo,please.

[@jodymartin5598]

What stick are you rocking with that Alderberan? It’s gorgeous

[@justinchew7644]

Would love to try my hand on BFS fishing. That bass felt like a great fight on UL

[@THEREELTEST]

it was fun and nerve racking!

[@hawjfamily321]

It's nice to see you catching them fish.

[@hzporpo2652]

hi old man. i love aldebaran bfs I want to use 3-6gram lure with 4lb braid. can you give the selection of the appropriate rod??

[@billsikes4007]

Great video as always. Now we need BFS casting rods to to catch up to BFS reels, a 5'10" rod in an open setting is absolutely the limiting factor in distance.

[@joweynatividad2347]

There’s a good amount of bfs capable rods 7’+ if you look hard enough. Not sure how low you’re throwing but I can throw 1.5g with ease. Old18 just came out with a bfs line called Buoyancy. Definitely worth looking into.

[@billsikes4007]

@@joweynatividad2347 I'm glad you mentioned Old18 as I had an opportunity to fish the Suppressor UL with a 16 Alderbaran which I thought was amazing. The Buoyancy was sold out almost immediately and I can't imagine them having any reasonably inventory for the foreseeable future despite their latest videos. Reasonable availability dictates what would would be considered as "good amount of bfs capable rods 7'+" which there is next to none. Help me out with 7 ft rods that are rated for 1 gram - 1/320z lures, I'm desperate.

[@joweynatividad2347]

@@billsikes4007 not surprised they sold out so quick since there was a 20% off coupon floating around at the time of release. Didn’t realize the suppressor is sold out too. Ray’s fishing should be coming out with rods and revisions this soon.

[@THEREELTEST]

Yes, I forgot to mention that Shimano and Daiwa make BFS reels that cast 1 gram... yet they dont have any rods that will load and cast 1 gram??? lol

[@THEREELTEST]

@@joweynatividad2347 there may be a chance Old 18 is going to send me one of their Buoyancy's to test

[@hillesla1]

i love all of your detailed videos and would love to win your 2022 shimano aldebaran reel. tight lines and keep making your great videos.

[@geothesinko1440]

What do you think of using this on a 7’ medium light mod-fast action

[@treywithani7400]

Love seeing this dude fish

[@CopeyJ325]

Honestly that entire fight had me hooked absolutely hooked!! That was super intense and very impressive! What a fish even if it didn’t get landed all the way! It looked like maybe bigger than 3lbs but not sure. Great video though!!!

[@hamonghawj698]

What rod are you using?

[@toddsmith3418]

Enjoyed the info

[@mattnguyen1672]

Does the drag clicker come stock?

[@robbiejones5676]

Hi man. Is this the same model as tackle warehouse? Its like 400 bucks, but it doesn’t say a year model. On bass tokyo, it costs 299. So im confused

[@andizgarta6773]

Awesome!

[@deandregibson542]

Every time you make one of these videos with the trout magnet my wallet starts to hurt 😂 I mainly fish trout magnets with the AATW but only when conditions permit. I mainly find myself throwing TMs on a 1/32oz jig head. Often times I find myself just talking an altoid box full of jig heads and sow bug trout magnets

[@THEREELTEST]

yeah trout magnets require near optimal conditions, but they can catch fish when other lures cant

[@ronnie72justbeagoodperson38]

Do you know if Shimano will make a MGL Aldebaran 50 2022 ? The smallest spool that I like to fish is a 50 size with 10 lb line. OH AND I wanted to bring this up ,lol, … if you are to look at the side view (with the brake dial) of the 22 Aldebaran , you can see a fish profile .(hard to explain). See the brake dial as his eye , and the bottom sweep back as his mouth. I hope you can see it . Lol i don’t know how to explain , but I thought it is cool for Shimano to make the brake side plate look like a bass side profile . Lol

[@moratheexplorer5791]

Sweet looking reel......

[@shakeyhead0079]

Impressive casting. I barely get that distance on a spinning rod.

[@Vagus333]

what is better to buy now - gekka air or Aldebaran 22?

[@bobbydelong8577]

Alphas Air TW IMHO is better. I have all three mentioned here.

[@THEREELTEST]

Good question since they are really close in price, but my gekkabijin air has been disappointing for me so far, im still testing it but its very noisy on the cast, and doesnt seem to cast as far or as smooth. The new aldebaran is smoother, lighter and Im confident is a better caster.

[@bxcloud104]

I disagree with taking apart new reels. Some Shimanos, but mostly those darn Daiwa Tatulas come dry from factory. After some regreasing it makes it way smoother.

[@ДенисГудок]

Я ловлю на 20Alphas приманками общим весом 0.6-0.8 грамма(груз + силикон). Шпуля Хамелеон, шнур 0.2РЕ))))

[@raymondjohnson6496]

Which one do you think is the best reel because I thinking about buying a steez’s air or the 22” aldebaran

[@bobbydelong8577]

For the money, the Alphas Air is the way to go in my opinion. I have the 22 Alderbaran and 20 Alphas Air. I wanted another bfs reel for a backup and just ordered another Alphas Air after fishing the Shimano all weekend.

[@THEREELTEST]

I wish I could tell ya, but Ive never used a Steez Air. Way too much money even for a BFS enthusiast like me.

[@berniepechlaner5809]

If you don't mind me asking - why would it matter if you have a right-hand retrieve vs. left-hand if all you are doing is casting? It's not going to change the distance...

[@THEREELTEST]

did you not see me fighting fish? I was doing more than casting

[@berniepechlaner5809]

@@THEREELTEST Yeah not disputing that. I just thought for the cast battles, it won't matter -- I'm sure there are plenty of us looking forward to the various shootouts

[@quanloikid1]

do you ever use the slip bobber with TM in the streams?

[@THEREELTEST]

Lol funny you should ask. I had an ex gf who was into fishing, and one day she was fishing by herself when the owner of trout magnet company came over and gave her some for free and showed her how to use them, and it was under a bobber.

[@wilsonline90]

In your opinion, what's the best BFS reel to cast 2.5 grams topwater lures? I want another BFS reel. I had the conquest, is this new Aldebaran better? If not, I will probably buy it again especially considering the price is so close. TIA

[@THEREELTEST]

I know the Conquest casts very close to the 16 BFS but Im going to take the 22 and the 16 and do a side by side cast comparison and a field battle, so I wont know until then

[@wilsonline90]

@@THEREELTEST thanks!!

[@jayludvigh6958]

I am impressed with your objectivity in this video. I would have bet $20.00 that you would have declared the Shimano a clear winner over the Daiwa. I appreciate your channel, and have subscribed for years, but have always felt your Shimano bias made your cast tests questionable. Your Stock just went up because of not leaning towards Shimano in a competetion between two closely performing reels.

[@ddm62571]

Yeah that looked like a 4 pounder you had there. I'm surprised it stayed on the little hook as long as it did.

[@Quagula]

What rod do you use?

[@dirtz2122]

He says it in the beginning

[@davidmoore928]

When it comes to estimating the casting distance would it be possible to count the number of revolutions of the handle, then use the gear ratio and line retrieved per revolution to mote accurately estimate the distance. This could done while on the water or later by reviewing the film to count the number of handle revolutions. Otherwise a great video with guest appearances by fish.

[@THEREELTEST]

On the water I estimate, to get real distances I take it to the casting field

[@ssmart5701]

I have never went below 6lb line, I’m just not finesse material

[@THEREELTEST]

going under 6lb line is not a requirement for BFS, but it is a requirement for casting a trout magnet lol. If I was to go back to target bass I would use 8lb and a way stouter rod.

[@rantsreviews4609]

And that 2# Bass is why you use braid over mono and loose the pan fish rods.

[@THEREELTEST]

And this is why your KZbin channel is going nowhere... because you have no comprehension or critical thinking ability

[@richardingraham6353]

COOL 😎

Man, your fishing technique is amater lvl...how can you jig like that :D Good equipment, i have the same but with 16 aldebaran. But bro you can fish like that even with 50$ rod/reel, no need to spend that much money, you dont use it properly.... You dont even know how to throw the lure, its like you are throwing a rock with your hands.

[@THEREELTEST]

Thats because you are an idiot with no experience fishing this lure? Maybe thats why you have a KZbin Channel for 6 years and no subscribers LOL
