Bait finesse vs spinning!
In today's video, I talk to y'all on why I will pick up a BFS ( Bait Finesse ) Reel over a Spinning reel. You'd be surprised as to why...

Need to pick one of these up soon. Awesome video man! Informational and relatable.

[@TheHunterFisher]

The market has only been getting better! Heck you can even convert an Abu Black Max to do bfs!

[@bamaracer51]

Great video! At the end of the day most people fish for fun and thank you for saying just have fun.

[@JayJayZhao]

Can you try casting fly poppers with a bfs setup? They work so well but it’s hard to cast even on a UL spin reel

[@LETTUCEbeeCEREAL]

Fly bobbers or torpedoes are something to look into.

[@JayJayZhao]

@@LETTUCEbeeCEREAL yeah those work but I was hoping for a cleaner setup

[@richnet12]

Line twist and accuracy… enough said!

Just trying to get back into fishing with my buddies haven't really gone in about twenty years. I'm trying to find online, I'm assuming but unsure if i can safely use a bfs reel for walleye pike fishing? Only application I'm really planning to use it in so far is lakeshore fishing and on the shore of the creek that inlets. I feel like an idiot but I've been trying to find a conclusive answer for an hour now 🤦

[@TheHunterFisher]

I don’t see any reason you couldn’t. As long as you’re not trolling. I use bfs in saltwater I’m sure it’s capable of what you’re wanting.

[@christophershoemaker8848]

@@TheHunterFisher awesome thank you will be doing no trolling basically just cast and retrieve and stationary jigging stuff like that

[@pauls3616]

Nice video. If it is what you want to do then do it. I want to try BFS. I see the comments that you can do the same thing for cheaper on a spinning set up but l still want to try it because it looks like fun. Isn’t that why we have hobbies? Thanks for the video.

[@TheHunterFisher]

That’s actually why I’m compared a more budget bfs reel to a entry level nicer spinning reel. Both about the same price, so to me, I don’t think the “do more for cheap spinning” excuse is good enough for me. Especially with the fact you can convert an Abu Garcia black max to a bfs reel, for $60 ish after buying the reel and spool.

@@TheHunterFisher sorry. Hit reply too soon! I will look at the Abu Garcia. I don’t mind do a bit of work. Thanks.

[@TheHunterFisher]

@@pauls3616 search up “$20 Abu Garcia bfs spool” or something similar to that here on youtube. Reel test did a video testing it out with the Revo x then with a black max. Very very surprising results. I was impressed. I ordered one and have it on the way now.

Yes Shimano Japan bulldog line has it too

Drag screaming on spinning reels negates everything you said about bait casters

[@TheHunterFisher]

That’s why there’s drag clickers on bfs reels so guess everything is negated about spinning reels

[@saleen12]

@@TheHunterFisher hahaha I didn't know that. Now you might be selling me. Too bad they don't have a Stella bfs

[@TheHunterFisher]

The new Calcutta Conquest BFS is prob the closest thing to a Stella bfs😂

[@leepao6302]

Yup, most people are just negative and narrow minded
