BEST reels under R3000 | Penn Battle III | Daiwa BG | Okuma Salina |Shimano Socorro

[@lukemarais41]

The PENN Battle 3 has a brass main gear from the 6000 up. 5000 down has an aluminium gear.

[@untraceablefishing]

Thank you💪🏻

[@pastolio2375]

Thanks for the vid, was waiting for it to drop. I must say, I really like okuma. I have gotten abit of a slide in penn products. My friend has a spinfisher for about 8 mnths and his reel is screwed after about 5 times use. His other spinfisher drag gets stuck, seems to be the ss washers. I had a penn regiment 15ft for scratching. Used twice and the bottom section had a hairline crack. Check the parts list on the new slammer. All penn clash and spinfisher parts in it. Thanks again for the vid, keep up the good work

[@untraceablefishing]

I’m so Penn bias (Slammer has been go to reel since 2016), but I know there have been issues with the lower end reels. Dean loves his Gosa, and BG. But the Okuma reel is on 🔥 and we looking forward to pairing up Okuma Tesoro vs our current reels! Thanks for the comment🤙🏻

[@marceldeckford5813]

Daiwa BG, Marshall, Saltist never dissapoint. Bullet proof reels that can take a beating. Not to forget the BG MQ, what a fantastic reel. Okuma Metaloid absolutely impressive. New Tesorro looks good to.

[@marceldeckford5813]

Magseal it is

[@untraceablefishing]

We keen to put Tesoro up against what we use (Slammer and Saragosa). We are quite spoilt for choice with reels🤣

[@aroshanrai5213]

This is on 🔥

[@untraceablefishing]

Thank you bud🙏🏻

[@user-wb1gz8br7n]

Very informative, like the okuma, well done fisho

[@untraceablefishing]

That Okuma is 🔥🔥 If I was looking under the R3k mark, it would be a very high contender🤙🏻

[@user-jb7ei5hg8u]

Great videos so far, really like it and thank you for making something like this. How about for a next video about long cast reels ?

[@untraceablefishing]

It’s something to add to the list for sure- thank you- we will never run out of ideas for sure. We need to still get up to the Stella mark of around R20k😳

[@philipsnyman1407]

Getting a bg that size under 3k is scarce. I own a 8000 bg and battle 3 dx and thus far i prefer the penn over the bg, but both great reels

[@untraceablefishing]

The 3dx is a lovely reel- can’t blame you there! Bilimoria have them for under R3k most of the time🤙🏻🎣

[@user-fp5mw3pv8z]

For boat fishing, for black sea bass,porgy,winter cod. 1) Which one is the best, Okuma Salina,Okuma Cedros,Daiwa Saltist,Penn Spinfisher Ssvi. 2) Cedros or Salina is better?

[@untraceablefishing]

Let me answer like this: 2) Salina is better than Cedros for sure- major upgrade. 1) for boat fishing, all depends how deep you fish, and with what line/braid. For me, I’d only consider Salina/Daiwa Saltist out of the ones you mentioned🤙🏻

[@riaccovanas9835]

Okuma Metaloid reels are the best under R3k reels you will get

[@untraceablefishing]

Have you tried the Salina though?🤙🏻

[@riaccovanas9835]

@@untraceablefishing not yet but seems like a great reel. Okuma has really upped their game and is selling great quality tackle at great prices. Ask Dave @ Bilimoria to show you the Metaloid, which is selling < R2500

[@untraceablefishing]

@@riaccovanas9835 ​​⁠ yes, we know the metaloid- but with Salina being new (and only choosing 1 reel from each brand), it was an easy choice😉

[@charlvandeventer3084]

Thank you very much. What I really want to know , is which spinning real will fits a assasin 13,6 feet rod with a finger the best. The Shimano 10000 is much to heavy for me. The combo feels unbalanced. Thanks.

[@untraceablefishing]

Hey bud Which assassin rod are you referring to? (Give me a name). Let me go check in store which is the most balanced for the exact rod you have🤙🏻

[@jayeshpathak1973]

Nice informative video Bro. Love frm India 🇮🇳

[@untraceablefishing]

Thank you buddy🤙🏻🎣

[@fazludinsufeyan5748]

Whats your thoughts on bluefish 14ft paired with salina 6000 for rock and surf?...weight wize...

[@untraceablefishing]

Good setup… For general purposes, I’d go on a 3-5oz🤙🏻🎣 You’ll have an amazing outfit!

[@marceloamador92024]

Daiwa Caldia Lt or caldia Sw

[@untraceablefishing]

SW👌🏻

[@Leon-lp9fl]

Akuma Selina certainly looks the part with a super drag. +- The same weight? Thank you!

[@untraceablefishing]

Roughly the same weight, but hands down our favourite… damn it looks good!

[@plasmoske]

Which one has the best drag clicker sound though? I heard the Salina has a almost silent drag clicker so doesn't sound very good?

[@untraceablefishing]

Hey there No, the Salina sounds great hey- probably the best in our opinion🤙🏻

[@plasmoske]

@@untraceablefishing ohhhh I'm sold

[@untraceablefishing]

@@plasmoske we should have one to test drive soon… can’t wait🤙🏻

[@plasmoske]

@@untraceablefishing I'm going on an overseas trip soon but when I get back after 4 weeks, I will definitely pick up a 14k Okuma Salina 🙂 Honestly it just looks so good. I already have a 10k Saragosa, and a 6k Saltist. I have a couple of Daiwa, Shimano reels. Never used Okuma. Was thinking of picking up a Spheros, but I think the Salina just looks so good and different. I don't want another Saragosa-like reel. Not saying the performance is bad, its actually perfect. I just want something different yet still good. I've never seen anyone around here at the piers rocking a high-end Okuma reel (Melbourne, Australia) so want to be the first haha. Most people here just use Daiwa or Shimanos.

[@untraceablefishing]

@@plasmoske be the trend setter fisho🤣🤙🏻

[@wepsdnb8402]

What's better Daiwa BG or Shimano Socorro?

[@untraceablefishing]

In our opinion, Daiwa BG.

[@brucespanner6756]

Hi, have you tested the silina as yet? What are the results

[@untraceablefishing]

Hey Fisho Yes we have in a few of our latest videos, including a short review on it. It’s an amazing reel, well worth the money🤙🏻

[@brucespanner6756]

What rod would you pair it with and what braid . it be cool to see. Vidio of setup

[@ChriSurf23]

Could the selina compete with a penn slammer ?

[@untraceablefishing]

No bud, unfortunately not. Different class reels entirely. I think of the Salina was IPX rated like the slammer, it would come close- but the Slammer still wins. We have both, and love both… but 2 completely different leagues of reels🎣

[@leonyang2350]

Penn slammer should compete with Okuma tesoro for fair comparison.

[@untraceablefishing]

@@leonyang2350 ​​⁠this was Penn battle vs Salina though🤔 The Tesoro compares with slammer and Saragosa.

[@streetsofuptown]

​@@untraceablefishingis the tesoro not good enough to compare with twinpower or Certate at least ...

[@untraceablefishing]

@@streetsofuptown it’s up there… but Okuma have the makaira which is closer👍🏻

[@alucardhellsing1037]

Okuma launched a 6000 and soon a 4000 Tesoro coming end of the year. We dont see them bringing the smaller 6000 to South Africa yet. Okuma Cedros is still using felt dragwashers come on Okuma its a rippoff when you are paying so much money for a reel in this economy.

[@untraceablefishing]

The Cedros is still a great reel- we hear you on your thoughts, but it’s a very proven reel for the price.
