TACKLE TUESDAY: Shark "budget" setups | Okuma Metaloid | Assassin Equinox and Solar!

We are back with our regular time slot of TACKLE TUESDAY🎣🤙🏻
This week we run through “budget” shark setups- but know this is not a budget sport, and going too cheap will cost you long term.
We tackle a very solid entry level setup, featuring:
-Okuma Metalloid reel
-Assassin Equinox and Solar rods
What should we do next?👊🏻

Since I started Fishing again I have heard so many excuses from various fishermen as follows, water is too dirty, too clean, too rough, too warm, too cold, current too strong and the wrong tides, there again some say that the barometer reading is too low or too high. Basically the only excitement I now get is when I buy new bait and tackle. 😊

lol… you need to know one thing… fishing is luck, and a lot of skill… We put in the hours (sometimes 30+ hours a week), and we don’t always catch… it’s as simple as that. Put in the hours, you’ll be rewarded

[@donczns]

Some conditions are better than others but in perfect conditions you just catch big eye, there are still good fish, but fish smart. Pre-dawn to around 9 and then later from 4ish till dark. Try different baits, I enjoy sand mussel cause it catches most species. Put in some hours but get to know one spot really well. Where and when gets simpler that way. Will do a pep talk in the next video.

For boat sharking, a 50-80 lb offshore angler power stick and an okuma custom black 30a reel from West Marine, after line probably 300-350 bucks, and it handles big sharks, I love it

[@untraceablefishing]

That’s awesome- thanks so much for the comment! Okuma really make some awesome products!

[@elijahbl5745]

@@untraceablefishing yeah they do, Ive landed an 11 foot tiger on the combo I stated with just straight 60 mono

[@firozemoosa316]

I look forward to tackle Tuesdays. Thanks for the good vids

[@untraceablefishing]

Thanks so much- glad you look forward to these videos🤙🏻🎣

[@NautilusShoreAngling]

Thanks for the videos guys. I would recommend the Okuma Precision 15 foot, 6 to 8 ounce as another option.

[@untraceablefishing]

100%. That is a rod that we use, and love🤙🏻🎣👊🏻

[@zamaleka1226]

I have a equinox XH and a Daiwa BG mq 18000 solid setup my biggest raggy was 190kg on that setup. I didn't choose the metalloid because I wanted something that can last especially for wading in the BG is designed for that purpose and to not allow water inside but not everyone has the budget for that reel. Also from experience there's a skate called the sharpnose skate, please do not put Ur hand in it's mouth trust me it was sharp teeth I thought I was going to loose my fingers😢 Great video!

[@donczns]

Thanks we don't catch to many of those thank goodness. The bg mq is one of my favorite reels, just got a little pricey since they launched. The goal of this video though was a good entry level setup and I can't think of many budget reels that outpull the metaloid. Sealed reels are tops but just never cheap

[@untraceablefishing]

Thanks Fisho for the comment. You have a great setup there👌🏻🎣

[@DRMJVR10]

Great review videos. Keep it up really interesting to see the different brands and rod and reel combos. Is it possible to review the big boy Penns with the assasin rods?

[@untraceablefishing]

Hey Fisho, will add to the list👌🏻

[@KREESCATCH]

My metaloid 90 has never let me down, I got it paired with the horizon 6-8oz. It feels like minimal effort when fighting big fish

[@untraceablefishing]

It’s 100% a great rod and reel combo you have there! The Metaloid is a fantastic reel, and if looked after will give you years of use!

[@simonmorris6338]

How much do these reels cost

[@simonmorris6338]

Why does a person still have to service a brand new reel when they are purchased from a fishing store?

[@untraceablefishing]

@@simonmorris6338 about R2200

[@untraceablefishing]

@@simonmorris6338you don’t have to… but keeping them cleaned, oiled and greased is part of maintenance🤙🏻😉

[@scangling64]

How would the metalliod 90s compare to a penn battle 3 8000

[@untraceablefishing]

I’d say quite closely- Metaloid feels sturdier to us, and is cheaper👌🏻

[@keerinheilbron5756]

I love the knowledge urz guys are sharing im looking for a reel that i can use for a 11ft,12ft and 13ft in the price range of r3500 can urz give me advise pls

[@untraceablefishing]

Stay tuned buddy… let’s get that answered next week👊🏻

[@keerinheilbron5756]

Ok because i asked a few guys working at tackle shops and guys services reels some say the penn spinfisher is better than the penn battle 3 dx i fish most rocks looking for reel that is sealed well

[@simonmorris6338]

I have purchased the best fishing gear that I can afford and I just think that the whole coast line from Kei Mouth to Hamburg are basically over fished for eatable fish and now people are targeting the sharks. I have no intention of trying to catch sharks. I think that it all boils down to luck.

[@untraceablefishing]

It boils down to hours… put them in🤙🏻
