Shimano Stradic 1000-HG Unboxing - An Ultralight Inshore Weapon - First Run - Part 1

[@Galaxy4o9]

have the same reel and use it for the same applications, can’t tell whether I like this 1000 more or the stradic ci4

[@Sanotsuke]

im trying to find some funky 1000 reels for UL/ML rods cant decide

[@Eclipse1988]

Just got this little baby today on sale at my local hunting store. Pairing it up with my St.Croix Trout series Ultra Light. Opening day is Saturday! I'm counting the minutes lol.

[@ScottMikles]

Lol I can feel the excitement. Few things better than taking a brand new rod and reel to slay some fish. Congrats on the combo, good luck!

[@Eclipse1988]

@ScottMikles thanks, man. It's even worse because I bought the rod last year, and they're awesomely sensitive... but I accidentally snapped the tip on a 4 lb bass (not a bad a way to go, though) a week before opener. Warranty replaced it.. so I technically had the rod since last year and have yet to actually trout with it lol.

[@Eclipse1988]

@@ScottMikles btw, thanks for the video! Even though it's older. I came here specifically to confirm the drag capacity because I run 4lb trout s.o.s. when trouting.

[@ScottMikles]

@Eclipse1988 You're welcome, glad it helped you out. The Stradic 1000 is a sick reel. You'll be happy you got it.

[@Eclipse1988]

@ScottMikles heard they're 200 bucks, but the new model is only a different color or some bullshit, so my shop was blowing out these things for 149 lol. I knew what I was looking at and couldn't say no. Today was splurge day before opener lol. Cheers!!

Hey what’s the rod rating I wana get that rod but idk if it’s a new light or if it’s 7,6 or 7ft

[@abielgonzalez9304]

Med light sorry

[@ScottMikles]

It's a Shimano Teramar Southeast medium light 7' 6"

[@encikkill]

so a ML rod is ok with this reel?

[@arielsabundantlife]

I like listening to your voice 😊

[@Sanotsuke]

[@KevinBlank]

Wish I knew where to find fish in Choctawhatchee

[@ScottMikles]

Find the grass and/or the bait fish, you'll find the fish👍
