Daiwa Fuego LT vs. Daiwa BG (which reel should you buy?)

[@joeyjoe8892]

The Bg is it heavier real that's why it feels like that it's like a Penn spinfisher or like a battle too or something once you start using lighter reels you don't want to use heavy ones that Fuego right there is more than enough for what you're using it for I use it for Big Red's Snooks and Jacks and it holds up just fine and I'm throwing artificial so I'm casting a lot that's where the lighter reel comes in handy

[@communityevolution8230]

I notice your testing the Fuego released in 2020 and not the newest 2023 edition. I could tell right away from the thickness of the bail arm. I'm not sure which one I should get. The 2020 edition or the 2023 * with thinner and lighter bail arm?

[@WolfAngling]

Me personally I like the thicker bail arm, when I had bought the Fuego the 2023 version was not out yet so I did not have a choice. I am not sure what the new Fuego has to offer and how different it is from the old one, but I definitely like I thicker bail.

I have the LT 2500d xh do you know what year that one would be I just got it a few days ago I didn't know if it was the newer of the one I was assuming it was

[@Eyesofthasouth]

The fuego 2500 has a high gear ratio which picks up more line per turn of the handle. I like them both, but to me the BG feels more quality and tougher. Good review

[@WolfAngling]

I feel exactly the same way, couldn’t have said it better myself!

[@keginwhyte523]

I have 2 BGs. Ordering a Fuego 3000. I have a gomexus power handle already waiting for it. The BGS already have em. Which makes a big difference

[@WolfAngling]

Yea, I wish they would put that handle on the Fuego.

[@calypsoraz4318]

I was looking at the Shimano Vanford the other day and I noticed that the Fuego looks almost identical. If it wasn't for that awful chrome, I would've bought it on the spot.

BG is great reel for price.

[@jakesnake7112]

I have the bg 4500

[@alexpazmino4762]

Does the fuego use digi gear ?

[@WolfAngling]

Yeah, it uses larger digi gear than the average Daiwa reel, with a lighter and smaller frame.

[@keginwhyte523]

Order A Gomexus power handle for it

[@McLovin937]

Nice

[@bengarrison5256]

The only difference between the 3000 fuego and the 2500 fuego is the t handle and the spool size. There’s no true. Getting way more bang for buck out of the bigger real. They’re the same

[@davemi3213]

You’re comparing a 3000 size to a 2500 size

[@WolfAngling]

Yes I am, the reason so is because the 3000 size Fuego is about the same size as the 2500 BG.

[@JurgenManifesto-gr2rb]

Neither, get yourself a shimano reel.
