Stock for stock i felt like my Dark Wolf Ultra casts noticeably better than my Curado. Upgraded with roro bearings though and its amazing!

Great Video Capt. Lou !! been fishing BFS for a couple years now . I run 10 # braid with a 6# fluorocarbon leader & 12 # braid with an 8# co-polymer leader. I also run a rod with 6# straight fluorocarbon and one with straight 6# mono , I've landed some 3# & 4# largemouth on that gear.. they felt like Whales !!!! Lol

[@BassinwithCaptLou]

I bet those bass felt like whales! Appreciate you sharing your bfs set-ups. Thank you!

[@jmanownz985]

using a bfs reel on rods that big and heavy is pointless, even your baits are huge.

[@BassinwithCaptLou]

Ok. Appreciate you watching nonetheless. 👍🏼

It really doesn't Matter bro you want be casting true bfs with shimano budget bfs reels without upgrading bearings and spool. I use a falcon coastal xg grinder ml 1/16 to 1/2 oz my gear is suited more for saltwater. You could've save money buying the Slx they are the same reel just different bearing count

[@willieharkless782]

Don't worry about what people say just enjoy bfs fishing I'm 5 year's strong.

[@BassinwithCaptLou]

Thank you for watching Willie! I enjoy fishing the bfs stuff. At least my version of it anyway. Lol!! 🤣 I appreciate you for sharing your info. 👊🏼
