Kastking Speed Demon inside out review. Is the fastest baitcaster any good?

[@TackleAdvisors]

Thanks Dave A for the Talladega Nights reference.....It kinda makes sense! LMAO (The text in the thumbnail was put out to subscribers who who read the KZbin posts I occasionally put out))

[@brendabbustamantay6802]

Tackle Advisors you mentioned in a vid recently that THE REEL TEST is becoming a bit bias or something like that I can agree lol I’m looking to your videos for honest reviews more than I do the reel test lately because I think he is a bit bias or overly picky on things that are not a big deal IMO.

If You want to make another Frankenreel use the DAM Speedcore 😉. Or just compare some Pictures.

Don't you dare make fun of EPF, bro! He speaks 4 languages and is a physicist! I can understand him perfectly, but then again, I'm Brazilian! Kudos on the channel, you know what you are doing!

Thanks Cecap! I appreciate it! I'm not...it's just funny :) ..I actually think what he does is spectacular. I didn't always think so until I started following what he does. And he's great for the sport!

[@andrewgio1]

I love EPF's channel its almost like a bad horror movie so bad its good. but its really his enthusiasm for the sport that shows. you don't need to be an expert or a gear junkie to enjoy the sport.

[@flatsfishing828]

First off, thanks for the very intuitive review of the Kastking Speed Demon. I just recently came across this reel on Amazon discounted to $39.99 ($49.99 plus a coupon) free shipping so I said what the heck and purchased it. When I got it, I removed the side plate and noticed it had 9 magnets in a trilateral formation (like the pro model), then I removed the spool and it had the split main shaft (like the pro model). The reel performs great, smooth, quiet and fast. Now I'm not complaining about any of this, just wondering what gives?

[@flatsfishing828]

Well I went back and looked at the reel ad on Amazon and it said "Updated Version" so I guess that answers my question above.

[@stephengrenot7039]

I surely hope you come back to KZbin again. your experience is priceless. and I hope you'll share it sometime in the future again Great video thank you very much.

Thanks for the review Tackle Advisors --- I bought one of these and a stealth on Amazon Prime day a few months back still getting used to Baitcasters but good to see your opinion ! Happy Gilmore by the way was the movie BTW --- and i am glad you shed the truth on products and i am sure there are many people like me that also appreciate it !

I'm right handed, but love the way my left hand retrieve reels fish, no swapping hands to retrieve so you are always ready for that unexpected strike!

[@ddm62571]

I cast with my right hand and then I reel with my right hand and I have not missed a strike. Just saying

[@troycote2724]

My cousin and myself both burned out the gears within 6 months. Warranty was great. Just bought the Kapstan 300. Hopefully holds up better.

[@TooLucky406]

I bought a Speed Demon about 6 months ago.... the reel failed completed on two fishing trip! Main gears shredded. I have reels as low as $20 to as high as $200. This by far is the worst reel I've ended used, especially with all the hype!.... everything mention in this video was spot on.

[@thisislargemouth5566]

5.4:1 on my big soft bait setup. 7.X:1 for big hard baits. 6.3:1 general purpose. 8.0:1 frogging, flipping, jigging, spooning. I suppose 9.3 would be nice for fishing really deep and recovering quickly but honestly even with 8.0:1 it's fast enough. Different strokes for different folks I suppose.

[@mikeschultz6383]

The Abu Garcia revo rocket makes fishing topwater baits effortlessly I highly recommend it for buzzbaits whopper plopper anything topwater which is my favorite way to catch fish

[@charlesgilliland532]

at $300 I hope it works

[@kongxiong6005]

I think people putting too much emphasis on the gear and not the angler itself. A master with a stick would destroy a novice with a sword. Same principal here. The one thing I know about the fishing industry is the overhype on how $$$ can make you into a pro. When in fact a pro can make $10 gear into a the hottest gear on the market. Mastery of self and technique are more important than any item you can purchase. Just because your sporting a new pair of Jordans don't make you the goat.

[@rawrfishing]

I like this reel a lot for many things but not for skipping. I can't skip to save my life with this reel. Need way more power on the brakes. I think maybe the spool is bigger so it needs more power? not an expert in these things, just guessing. But i run my brakes from 6-9 (never max because i do hear a bit of rub too). overall nice review!

[@locoshaggy]

The problem with the play of the handle is solved by filing the shaft a little so that the screw goes down a bit and rests better on the washers. so solve several reels that way

[@Boxagami]

For my frogger top water high speed gear reel, I'm using a rather inexpensive SeaKnight Falcon XG 8.1:1 gear ratio. It was cheaper than this Speed Demon and I love it! I can cast on target almost every time and very far distance. Very FEW, if any back lashes... My favorite and I know it's one of those Chinese companies, but it would be better than the Speed Demon. I mean, don't get me wrong, I like KastKing and I own 2 KK reels...

[@crisjones7923]

I got one of these for fishing super fast water coming off of the andies here in Ecuador. So far I have landed prolly around 30 or so fish between 5 and 9 lbs only problem that the reel had was the little spring on the thumb button came loose and got chewed up in the gears. Replaced it with a spring from a ball point pen and it's been working fine since.

[@alvinwine5665]

Problem is no telling how much abuse the previous owner put that reel through or lack of maintenance

[@thomashorner7474]

I've used mine pulling 5+lb largemouth out of grass matts and never had a problem in the 2 years I've had it I've caught over 30 northerns over 10lbs 3 tiger muskie over 25 an 2 muskie over 40 no problems with the gearing or noise. I've only been fishing with baitcasters for the last 3 years so I'm still a newbie at 48yrs old .... but these are the only reels I tried where the brakes work like they should in my opinion.I can cast the lure out never touch the spool and never had a backlash. I can't cast them as far as some people but ever since my motorcycle accident I don't cast my spinning reels as far as I once could. I liked your unbiased review though.... the price point nowadays is the biggest factor for me and I would never buy a shimano just because it's a shimano ..I don't pay for something just because of it's name. And trust me when I say most people sitting on cushions don't know their employees names.

[@ZoofSkillzFishing]

Awesome review dude.... the intro was quite interesting.... I am planning on entering the fresh water game, and didn't understand the need for high gear ratio... thanks man

[@srt10h4rml3ss]

Great information. I purchased their Speed Demon Pro as my first baitcaster reel as the Shimano equivalent stuff was silly expensive here in Canada. keep up the great work, my 10 year old also loves taking in your information in the fishing realm :)

[@yllib2012]

I'm perfectly happy with a Shimano, Daiwa, Abu or Lew's (Doyo) in 6.3:1. It's simple, if you want the line to move faster, reel faster. I also feel it's better to spend $200 to $400 (or more) for a reel that will last as opposed to buying a new cheaper one every few months. BTW, I'm right-handed but only buy left hand wind reels. It took a bit of getting used to it but now I prefer left hand retrieve. That's not to say I won't buy a right-hand retrieve reel if it's one I really want and it's only available in right-hand retrieve.

[@joelee5067]

Back in 1994 I bought a Daiwa procaster Pr1-5bi. At the time it was the most expensive reel I had ever purchased ($94). It stopped working after about 6 months so I disassembled it and found the pinion gear teeth stripped. It was still under warranty so I shipped it to Daiwa for repair. They shipped it back with a letter stating since I disassembled it I voided the warranty. 10 years later I found a guy that repaired reels and purchased a Daiwa factory pinion gear for $6.00 and repair the reel. After 2 months the same thing happened. I compared the pinion gear to the ones in my other reels and the Daiwa was half the size. In 25 years I have never purchased another Daiwa reel and never will all because of a $6 part. #FUDAIWA

[@TackleAdvisors]

I remember buying two quantum energy metal e 7 reels back in the 90s....I was a senior in hs worked part time at a grocery store and saved up the 360$ for 2 of them... The spool skirts ground into the rotors on both.... Aside winning a knot tying competition and winning a Cabo 50 it was the last quantum spinner I ever purchased. I have had defects of all manufacturers from a zeebass that spent more time in the shop than in my hands to shimano abu and Daiwas that were duds. I hear ya though. Once bitten twice shy

[@Jake-cp4wb]

What's your opinion of piscifun reels? Any better than kast king? I'd love to see a video or how they compare to ardent reels because they appear to use the factory.

[@garymarch4711]

Tackle Advisors I like a tight tolerance grip as well. Really helps when finesse jigging for walleye and such where subtle strikes need to be felt and all reel noise needs to be muted as much as possible. Can the grips be shimmed? I assume so... where do you get these shims (super thin washers)?

@@locoshaggy I'll try that. I measured for and ordered up some teflon coated shims. Ended up just getting shims from a hobby shop for RC cars. Took any play I had out real nice. But it introduced one more component. I like the idea of filing down a little bit. That might work out. I'll be trying it out. Thanks

[@chrisp2876]

I prefer a robust aluminum frame for flipping and frogging. Preferably at least an aluminum handle-side plate too. I'm not sure what I'll use this reel for (buzz baits?), but I got mine cheap, so I'll give it a try.

[@kirkm.marquez8366]

Thanks Tackle Advisors for the review. I happen to own both the Speed Demon (Left Handed) and the Speed Demon Pro (Right Handed) and have used them only for bass fishing from the bank and from docks for over a year now. So far I have not had any problems or issues with them as of yet. I’m by no means a pro angler and just love bass fishing but find these reels great for what I used them for. Yes, the “speed” is somewhat of a hassle when using swim baits because no matter how slow you try to reel them in, I often find myself still looking outward only to find that my bait has already been reeled in and at my feet. LOL I’m sure that it would be better suited for fishing from a boat and from deeper waters to get the fish in quickly before they have a chance to rip off 30 yards of string on you. Also as one guy mentioned that it would be better suited for frogging and top water. My Speed Demon Pro is relatively quiet on the cast and the retrieval whereas the regular Speed Demon is quite a bit noisier but no where near as bad as the reel that you reviewed in your video. Watching your videos has educated me on what to look and listen for as it pertains to not only a quality aspect but also how to maintain what quality I may or may not have. Thanks for your content and keep doing what you are doing. We amateurs really appreciate you.

[@defmud80]

So I have this reel and it's super smooth and quiet. The drags needed to be greased but other than that it casts very well and has caught me many calico bass bonito and sheephead from shore

[@InfinityFishing]

Finally some legit good review affet all. As a fan of kastking i liked your objective review.hope you get hands on the pro version and review if they really improved this reel.

[@danielsmith6456]

That noise is behind the right hand cover. That's the magnets rubbing. That break that you turned up to max is magnetic.

I bought one when they first came out and it is cheap but it had caught over 200 muskies and it just works and I came missing the bearing and its still working don't ask me why but it works great video thanks ps I could use a bearing hint hint 👍

[@cswann8]

@Tackle Advisors really dig your channel....and I am subscribed. Can you possibly link the Dremel attachments (and maybe the polishing compound) that you use when you do gear polishing. I'm anxiously awaiting the arrival of a Spartacus Plus and would like to mod it to make it as smooth and friction free as possible. tia

[@Kigai11]

Thanks to your reviews and tear down of reels I was able to take my fuego baitcaster apart when it started making a grinding noise after I had used it in a rain storm, I have a few of the kastking reels and they do work for my needs. What do you recommend in the 150.00 range I was looking at the tatulas what is you opinion on those. Thanks an keep up the good work

[@lmsmbassaddict7779]

I like your take on gear ratios. My dad uses spinning gear that's not taking no where near 31 inches a turn. Me however, I feel like anything in the 7s does good for me. Just goes to show that we all have our preferences.

[@mojobudgiekayakfishing]

@15:10 fwiw this is exactly what happened to me. Was at the Cape Cod canal with only my 6'MH kayak rod and this speed demon during a blitz in 2019. Brought in a 39" 25lber but had to crank down the drag and broke the reel. Totally worth it to me for the experience, and I had picked it up used for $35. For searching schoolies on topwater from a kayak it's fine too.. expect a year, two max.

[@TackleAdvisors]

Lol talk about bringing a knife to a gun fight.... That's awesome!

[@mojobudgiekayakfishing]

Tackle Advisors thanks man. Folks were laughing, well til I brought it in.

[@cfunaki]

Tackle Advisors great video as usual! Have you tried SeaKnight POTM and LUNA? I think you may be surprised at the performance of these reels, mainly due to casting performance. And look, I'm comparing with my top reels (Shimano Core 50, Stile 100HG and Daiwa Steez SV TW). I have three models of Kastking (Spartacus, Spartacus+ and Assassin) and I hate "that" noise, coming from every part of these reels! =/

[@ZoofSkillzFishing]

After watching this review... I have just cancelled my order of the Speed Demon.... I don't think I would actually use such a reel that often.... once again thanks man for the honest review....

[@charlesgilliland532]

Personally I bought this reel as a frogging and flipping reel and I love it. The one I got had no scratches and extremely tight tolerances on the handle. I like the brakes and cast a country mile on 50 pound braid. I do not particularly care for the drag though.

No one out there, who has a 9-5 job is going to ware out this reel. At less than 80 bucks lets be realistic, its a genius product for the overall market. Besides 99 % of fisherman don't need nor can't catch more fish with a "Patek Phillipe" reel.

[@TackleAdvisors]

It's not wearing it out that's a real worry it's hooksets that do damage or snags. Which is the main issue on all baitcasters

[@ishwithfish]

yeah but, how does the torsional strength of Zaion and Ci4+ compare to Rainforest Graphite?🤔

the thumb bar spring is an issue for this model, i used speed demon pro bc for 3 month. and the spring is broken . Now going to shimano . :/

[@mobileman2134]

Regarding the spool, I get the lighting/inertia argument, but is it possible that manufacturers don't do this because of increased water access to the inside of the the reel especially with braid.

[@PeterCPRail8748]

Kastking only makes good quality for beginners and weekend fisherman. If your expecting a reel that will be dependable after a gruelling season or two. Move along and spend a bit more to get a better reel from a known manufacturer. I am talking through experience using these while I was learning baitcasting.

I've been waiting for this review I got one months ago. I was curious if your tension knob was all wonky too. guess not but that noise you get when you put the brakes to 10 I don't get it from that but I do get that noise when I increase the drag. I'm not cranking down the drag either. even half way it gets quite noisy and grindy feeling. Based on my reel and this video I think you hit it spot on with this review. I got mine for $40 on sale and at that price its not bad. oh yea my knobs are both the same in that they have a slight play. I don't think kastking really has a QC check on these knobs

[@TackleAdvisors]

What was up with your tensioner. This one was a pain to keep seated in place (forgot when I mentioned it but it's in there)

[@19DESERTFOX91]

It was basically a 3 settings only tension knob no matter how much I played with the knob. no tension at all, some light tension or cranked down all the way to get little more tension. anything heavier than 1/16 oz when adjust the fall rate of a lure the tension knob does nothing, unless you go to that "3rd setting" but I hate doing that because its so tight the knob gets stuck when slick/wet.

I love my kastking products, not a single problem with any of them and a couple of them out preform my more expensive lews reels. What I'd recommend is get brand new products and review those. Just my 2¢.

That's part of the reason why I stopped taking on reels offered by subs... Unless it fills a very specific role. I've had many come in that were solely sent because they wanted free service.... Those were sent right back. This is niche reel and should be treated as such.. The rle is a general purpose reel which is why I treated it that way. At the bass master classic. Where that schmuck Shane wanted me out of his booth. While he was being a dick I was talking to the camera saying how great the new higher end ninja reels were. I didn't out out the vid as I don't want to provide any free press to kastking who's owned by eposeidon and eposeidon appears to be owned by a company in China (they own the kk, eposeidon, affordable innovation trademarks. And that Chinese company is who sends 15,000kg of kastking products stateside)
