I share my experience after 10mths of hardcore kayak fishing with this reel. Turns out there a lots of reels I prefer to this one including many that are much cheaper.

*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.*

I just tested my Conflict II 7000LC in Hawaiian waters. I was impressed with its overall operation. I defentlty got more distance then before. I used it on a 14' pole filled with a backing of 30lb test braided then finished it with 10lb test braided. With this real I'm getting about 20 yards more of distance then I did with my 6500ss Spinfisher. I'm averaging about 150yards maybe more. The line rips off the spool with no resistance at all. The return speed is incredible. Less effort at retrieving. I thought the larger size of the 7000LC would tire me out but it didnt. The reel is lighter then i expected. I fished with the reel for about 5 hours straight so you can imagine how many casts I made. I washed the reel with a water hose then towel dried. I'm so impress with the reel, I plan on purchasing more. Update: I did buy another Conflict II 7000. Still impressed and happy with it.

Great review! I've had my CFTII1000 just over a year now, and as far as I'm concerned, I really wouldn't recommend it to my friends. The bale started to close on me mid-cast, I get wind-knots all the time, and after service the reel gets sluggish very fast. The reel is light, but that just isn't enough. I also have found there to be some play in the reel, and figured out that it comes from the fact that the clutch isn't firmly seated. Maybe I'll try to fill some of the gaps with some chemical metal one day.

Completely agree with your thoughts mate! I’m from Australia and only bought one as my old reel seized as we were getting set up and wasn’t at home to swap out for another of my own but I was lucky enough to only have to pay $130 AUD converts to $92.20 USD so understandable you feel that way after paying that much for the reel. Went well on its first night catching a 7.05 lb Teraglin and a 8.77 lb jewfish using a trusty Abu Garcia Veritas travel rod so I wasn’t the most unhappy about my conflict purchase than others. Thanks for the vids! Cheers Glenno!

The 2500 series have a faulty line roller system to fix this you can buy a bearings to replace the bushing, i used a roller bearings from a okuma trio 30 fits directly on the 2500 conflict you will also need a those nylon spacers to stop it moving sideways if you don't do this good bye to your nice braid and say hello to a damaged roller, if using mono line you don't need to upgrade

(bad english sorry) I got an used Conflict 3000. When i tried it at the seller it looked new and worked good. 1st try at the shore; when i turn i feel like the rotor hits something slightly every turn of the handle. What can this be? I also had the Penn Sargus 4000, this one gone bad i dont know how to explain, when i drag a fish it has become very heavy. My Shimano Alivio 4000, also used one for 20 euros, i have it now for years and i fish 3x a week. Nothing changed on this reel. Smooth as hell. I love it. I wonder how a Shimano Stella would be (way too expensive) ?!?!?

I appreciate your stance about KZbin reviews being paid for by the companies who give the stuff away. Your luck with this Conflict is the same luck I have had with every shitmano I've ever bought, all of them being upper end too. I agree with you that the Spinfisher V is a workhorse but you've said you think the VI isn't. But you don't have one, your brother does. You don't have it there to compare. You say the Conflict isn't smooth but then say you didn't bother opening it up to maintain it! Maybe you should. The fall hit the reel just right and the rotor and body got torqued. I had a Stradic CI4 that turned into a ten dollar Zebco after a 5lb. Red on 10lb. Braid torqued the rotor arms. That's why I now stick to 1970's Ambassadeurs. Nothing hurts them, they never die, a monkey can fix them and the fishing fashion police hate seeing you fish with them. Anyway love your philosophy about your channel being the common sense man's channel. You won me as a subscriber. How about some lure comparisons.

For inshore fishing it’s tough to beat the battle 2 in a 2000 or 2500 size. Great bang for buck. I have the original conflict for years with no issues whatsoever and I also primarily kayak fishing. I don’t even really clean them just freshwater rinse after use. It’s tough to hear you being critical of a reel you’ve put in salt and fell on top of and never cleaned. I’d rather buy a cheaper reel and spend the extra money on a nicer rod IMHO though. Good review and content. Will sub

The penn conflict 2 has sealed bearings. I agreee that the battle 2 is a way better bargain. Also the Daiwa Fuegos are hard to beat for the price.

I like the review, very honest and plenty of time on the reel it sounds like, but you mention your money can go a long way if you shop smart? You paid $170 for a reel that you can get for $120 from several sporting goods stores on ebay...

That’s not a bad deal at all for that reel! If your fishing for inshore species I’d say go for it. Try it out if you don’t like it you can flip it and profit. Just because I had a bad experience don’t let that discourage you from trying new things! Thank you for watching our vids!

SlotCityFishing Historically Shimano’s two biggest weaknesses are exterior durability and their atrocious drag systems.... Meanwhile Penn is known for the best spinning reel drag system on the planet. So.... not sure where you were heading with that.
