[@birddog0077]

You are the reincarnation of Powers Boothe. Great videos sir.

[@Getzopurple]

Finally I've been looking for a comparison video for ages

[@nicholashosslogan3444]

I run the penn slammer 440 ssg and ive used it for 11 going in 12 years and absolutely love it, its in a st. Croix medium heavy 6'6" and fish from boat/kayak/on land, but will be doing more kayak fishing this year. Its a great combo, leaving my 7 foot rod for in boat fishing.

[@tunanorth]

The size numbers do not correspond between the different reel companies, so that kind of comparison is apples-oranges. The Daiwa 4000 size is most comparable to the PENN 5000 size. The PENN 4000 size is most comparable to something in between the Daiwa 3000 and 3500.

[@gabrielduarte3904]

im glad someone else pointed this out =)

[@RapalaSnookin]

The Daiwa BG runs bigger for sure

[@renny9879]

100%

[@bcask61]

This

[@rchydrozz751]

I agree with this. I have several Daiwa's 4000's and wanted a new 4000 size reel. I bought a Penn 4000 on Amazon not seeing it before I bought it, thinking it would be the same 4000 size. Wrong. The new Peen sitting beside my older Daiwa 4000 makes the Peen look like a 2500 size. Upon first seeing it I thought it was a 2500 mislabeled as a 4000. Seems manufacturers sizes aren't the same across the board. Not dogging the Peen reel, its smooth and for the price is a great reel, just too small for me to take surf fishing on the OBX. Something to consider when purchasing.

[@afout07]

I've found that the daiwa bg is more comparable to a size larger penn reel. A bg 4000 is very similar to a battle 3 5000 in terms of size, weight, drag, line capacity

[@CommonManBrewing]

Great video…Two years old but something worth saying is that both of these reels will last and you can get parts for both Daiwa and Penn. Penn parts are relatively easier to find locally but Daiwa will get you any part you need too, shipped out to you. I don’t fish Shimano reels anymore due to the problem of not easily having parts available.

[@stephendowney206]

Great comparison Brad thanks for the review

[@klaicspeter8933]

*Bought a 500 for an ultralight rod. It's very smooth **enjoyable.fishing** recommend casts great. One odd thing- the bale wire is a bit heavy diameter in my opinion for a reel of this size. But a great purchase.*

[@sandroramos6293]

How bout a teardown of both .you will see the big difference bg have main shaft support wile the penn don't and so mush more . reading the spec of the boxes is not a comparison

[@cjahlert]

Appreciate the comparison, looking at the battle 3 to pair with a 8 ft. Star Arial rod, mainly for surf casting, jetty and pier.

[@gabrielduarte3904]

as someone else pointed before, the sizes are not even comparable, i think both reels are great, i like the machined aluminum gear on the penn reel, but on the other hand, the size and quality of the cast aluminum gear of the BG is second to none. and yes, you should compare real reel equal sizes, not size numbers.. that is why they mismatch so much in weight, drag and line cap.

[@robbiebaker2412]

The question i have is about the bearings. I like the added line capacity of the diawa. However, I have never went surf fishing. I am looking for my first surf fishing reel. Are the sealed bearings of the Penn reel a better option for extending the life of the reel. I'm assuming the sealed bearings would mean the reel should last longer? I will only be using the reel for surf/saltwater fishing about once per month or so considering I live about 1 1/2 to 2 hours from the closest beach to me. What advice do you have?

[@jasonstokley7274]

Reel sizes from different manufacturers aren't the same. The Penn 4000 is a significantly smaller reel than the BG 4000. A better comparison to the BG 4000 is the Battle 3 5000. The Battle 3 is heavier, holds roughly 30 yards less line, but blows the BG away in lbs of drag at 25lbs.

[@jasontat3969]

Like the content. Have used several different reels for salwater. Im sold on PENN. Curently have ENN Pusuit, PENN Battle, n PENN Feirce.Have paired my reals to specific rods. Do alot of inshore n wade fishing Saltwater.

[@yangearthratlarry]

THE BG 5000 HAS 22 lbs OF DRAG & HOLDS 480 YARDS OF 40lb TEST BRAIDED LINE A MANUAL BAIL, WHICH I LIKE !!! ( 40lb BRAIDED IS THE SAME SIZE AS 10lb MONO )

[@oceanmark2960]

[@RogerFreeman-zk6lp]

Just watched this and answered several questions I had. Do you have any on rod comparisons?

[@bcp5296d]

Very similar reels. I think penn is the easier takedown and reassemble, however both will fail if you get a good bit of saltwater on them over the years. I don't have the time to do a full takedown after every or every other use, so I will probably just buy a slammer.

[@tygoom]

I know you brought up weight for kyackers for both the 4000s However data wise the Diawa bg 3500 sits better with the penn 4000 even that match up it goes to the bg I own one vs a penn slammer for the money and power and ruggedness the bg out preforms the slammer especially in the surf

[@franksaunders6534]

Both are good reels. One notable difference is the paintwork on the daiwa BG holds up much better when rock fishing.

[@bcask61]

[@stopmotionkehidupan9736]

which one is better Penn battle 3 hs with daiwa bg sw spinning?

[@seamurda100]

If I'm throwing artificial in the surf, I think a better option than both of those is the Shimano Nasci 5000. Same price. The Nasci also has a seal at the base of the rotor, which does a good job of keeping salt water from entering the gear box.

[@dylanclay2741]

The Nasci has a graphite frame. No thanks

[@rossevans1774]

If you going to compare two brands of reels approximately the same size (4000), then get the two reels that are approximately the same size first!

[@allenjacob1189]

I had two Battles and two BG 4000 size. All 4 reels were bought around same time. Other people use my reel on the boat . I fish Fresh water stripe bass and both the BG reels failed after 1 year . Gears locked and bails broke. My Penn reels are still going strong . After the BG reels failed i purchased 1 more Battle and 1 Clash and no more problems.

[@jasonrobbins7269]

For surf fishing my opinion is the BG holds up far better my battle 2 didn’t last a year before seizing up my BG and diawa fuego’s have far more hrs on the water still smooth as butter.

[@randygoforth5562]

[@tonykomer2997]

Very good? Anyone can read specs off a web page and hold two reels with one not even being reviewed, thats a great review? What's a bad one? Try going over to someone with real tech knowledge that also breaks down the reels and shows you differences. Not to mention bothers to know what the ht100 drag is. Tackle Advisors is one of the best for reel reviews and tear downs etc. Its also not comparing two reels that use completely different sizing scales and not picking the two closest then giving points for weight or line capacity. Why not compare the 4000 Shimano Stradic to a Daiwa 4000 BG. After all they have the same number duh!?! To bad they are 2x size difference.

[@michaelgreene]

Wanted to share my experience with those reels. I have been using battles since they were just battles. Before the II's and III's. Never had a failure. They just got old. Beat up. Bought two BG;s when they first came out. a 3000 and a 4000. Brand new 4000 had problems from the start. Not sure what the failure mechanism was or what part failed but if I set the hook on a fish and didn't miss the fish, the handle would spin backwards at a high rate of speed. Sometimes striking my knuckles. If I missed the fish it would not do it. The handle would not turn backwards normally. Only on hook set. Sent it to an authorized dealer and it took about 2 months for them to get the replacement part and return my reel to me. This was a brand new reel. So If you factor in reliability I would go with the Penn.

[@dylanclay2741]

I had the opposite experience. Had a battle ll 2500 last only 1 season before the main and pinion gear went out . Threw it in the trash and never got another 1. I dropped penn a long time ago because they went real cheap especially on their new fathom lever drag series.

[@michaelgreene]

@@dylanclay2741 Bad deal. But, my BG was brand new. Didn't last a day. I have since moved up to the MQ and it is a great reel. No issues and have been using it heavily for months.

[@4trx3vxn4]

I want a battle 3 I notice they have a large spool capacity, but I would be using it in freshwater, I just want somthing quality. Say I only spool up 150-175 yards of braid. Will that extra space on the spool I don’t fill, effect my casting? Or do they cast better when spooled fully?

[@tmac6593]

They'll cast better fully spooled

[@4trx3vxn4]

@@Joe_Regular_Schmoe facts. I've actually had the battle, 3 for a few months now and I love it. I did have ,200 yards of braid on it but I've used a lot and now I'm down to about 100-120 yards witch only fills the spool maybe a little over 1/4 way. Certainly not half way, but it still bombs on cast and operates just fine. Favorite reel by far I love it

It's odd that the diawa bg 4000 weighs more than the battle 3 4000 and yet the diawa bg 3000 weighs less than the Penn battle 3 3000..I would like diawa to explain the logic behind that.

He missed the part about battle lll CNC cut gears

[@christopherjenkins2373]

I personally will never buy a Chinese made reel or any reel from Pure Fishing. Of course I only use vintage reels which because of their longevity and durability always get my vote. I currently have 193 vintage reels made before 1980. If you’ve never used a 1950s Luxor Saumon Mer you have truly missed something. Week before last I caught the largest fish of my life on the Outer Banks of NC. It wasn’t a fish I wanted to catch but was a very difficult but enjoyable 30 minute fight. It was a Stingray over four feet across. I caught it with a massive Shimano SSG 7000 rear drag. That vintage reel has 14 drag washers in it. I enjoyed your comparison and what you said makes sense however I have totally disassembled a Daiwa BG 5000 and found it an admirable and durable design. I just don’t like modern reels.

[@BeardedBrad92]

I’ve never used any vintage reels, but I’m sure they were definitely built better than most reels today. Just like everything else out there

Battle 3000 and BG 2500 are my favorite for slinging lures in the kayak. I have mostly BG’s for surf, bought them for the capacity and gear. Can’t go wrong with either, IMHO.

What I learned from Penn, Shimano and Daiwa is this. It depends on where in the world you are living. I'm a South African and I can tell you Penn comes at a premium over here. So... Penn you are out!! Funny enough in the 80's it was quite affordable!!! Next comes Shimano... Spares tooooo hard to come by and you pay and wait for repairs. So... Shimano out. That leaves me with Daiwa which is affordable and easy to obtain.

The Daiwa BG 4000 holds more line as compared to Penn Battle 4000 hence you cannot compare the weight. Its better to compare penn 5000 with daiwa 4000.

I have both in a 8000 and the penn is smoother and works nicer on my 14ft rod with my bg working better on my 12ft

[@WisGuy4]

The Daiwa has anti reverse and Penn reels do not. I use the anti reverse switch at least a dozen or two times each time I fish. I’m not a fan of just loosening up the drag and pulling the line out which is tough on the hands and has to create extra wear on the drag washers. For me, the lack of an anti-reverse switch is almost as dumb as installing the handle on the right side of a spinning reel, casting with the right hand, and then switching hands to hold the rod in the left hand. I bought a Penn for surf fishing on a Florida trip a few years ago. Last year I bought a Shimano and left the Penn at home when I went back to Florida.
