5 Thefisherman64
I made a decision to purchase this reel because they were on sale. I am a Shimano guy. I bought one and put it on my most abused application. 65 pound braid. On my frog rod. One year later I purchased 2 more due to apparent toughness of the first. Put them on my second and third most used rods. Fast forward two more years, I have replaced all of my Shimano reels. And do n't expect to look back. Cost is 30 to 40 percent lower than the Shimano reels. Thank you for making the choice to keep these reels in an affordable price.

5 MikeC2
Great reels. I have 2 and am shopping for another. Wo n't buy it here because they do not have the higher gear ratio in the left hand retrieve model. Only 4 stars because it comes with combat grips instead of Winn knobs. But, I have swapped the combat grips for Winn round knobs. I even contacted Lew's and was able to get black and gold end caps for the knobs. I have one on a TP1 Black and the other on a Custom Lite. The reels cast great, the retrieve is smooth, and they are strong. And, they look good too. Get one today.

We have a pair of these in the rocket tubes for Northeast striper fishing. They are on Ugly Stik 6. 5' Tiger Elites. The reel is strong, big crank, the level winder is strong enough for 40# plus stripers and its one less thing to worry about when you are hooked up with a big bass. Plenty of drag and they hold a lot of braid( we use 30 pound Spiderwire). Just make sure you wash them well, they are not saltwater sealed as good as others. Not a lot of bearings but smooth and tough.

5 Jon8956
This reel is a prime example of when engineering meets functionality. Its extremely lightweight, sleek and has excellent adjustments for precision casting. It also solves the problem of being able to throw light lures a long way so you can put your lures in the strike zone without getting too close and spooking the fish. The reel action and drag are both exceptionally smooth and the ergonomics are fantastic even for those with slightly larger hands. This reel will remain a favorite in my fishing arsenal for foreseeable future.

5 Mikee82087
This reel is so smooth and cast so good and is built great feels good and comfortable in hand the brakes work great and allow casting with no backlash in this is hands down the best reel I have ever owned don ’ t hesitate to buy it I highly recommend it!

5 KYC8
This is my first BFS baitcasting reel, and it lives up to the promises of being able to cast lighter baits further. It certainly works better once dialed in properly, but as a relative novice on casting reels I was able to get near optimal settings within a two attempts and was matching my casting distances compared to a spinning reel. The gear ratio makes for a faster retrieve, and the overall weight is very light when paired with an ultralight rod. I will still keep a spinning reel for when I want to drop a bait to a certain depth since that is easy to measure by counting turns on the reel, but for all other finesse applications I will most likely be using this reel in the future.

5 FlyingColoradoHawaiian
I 'm glad I chose this reel as my first Bait caster reel! Easy to learn and it casts tiny jigs during the early spring bite.

5 Kevin1189
This KastKing BFS reel is unbelievably lightweight and feels incredibly luxurious. The finish looks amazing and the gears feel smooth. It can cast small baits into the distance. The carbon fiber handles and grips do run small but overall great reel.

Got this a few weeks ago and only used it a couple of times but it sure beats all my old baitcasters I have! Drag and brake are easy to set and use. Retrieve ratio is perfect for my needs and it's pretty rugged. Kastking seems to be best bang for the buck compared to other brands.

5 FlyFisherman12
I bought this a few weeks ago and my first impressions are that it is well constructed, super smooth casting, and light. The weight isn ’ t much of a big deal for me but I have to have a smooth reel and this fits the bill! I love that the side plate stays connected when you release it. The bearings seem to be great quality!

I 'm still working on my skills with baitcasting reels. This Megajaws is the other side of the coin compared with me other reels. It is compact, light and well finished. It help me a to work on the precision instead of worrying about getting bird nests.

5 JJOmazing
I just ordered this reel last week and wanted to provide a detailed review of my recent purchase. Just as another reviewer shared, it is advertised as black, but my reel was a vibrant red. I spooled it with a 10lb braid and cast it with soft plastics with a 1oz weight. I set the tension so the lure just barely dropped from the end of the rod, then set the drag to 5/10. There are micro- adjust settings between the typical settings, meaning 0. 5 increments are possible. Once casting, wow, this thing can really send the bait pretty far. I would estimate I was regularly getting 35- 40yard casts on a relatively lightweight lure. Plus I was able to drop it the lure exactly where I wanted it to go. The reel is pretty typical size in the hand when palming. I would say its not the biggest or smallest, but it was comfortable to use. There is another switch on the back of the reel that changes the reel function to allow for flipping and pitching. I 've never seen this before on a reel and typically just used my thumb on the spool. When this is activated, you press the button holding it during the flip and let- go when you want the line to stop advancing. It took a few tries to get used to, but is still very intuitive to use. If you forget to switch it back when going back to do a normal long cast, it can be a surprise. However, I think it is a nice feature. I was able to catch some bass as a local pond with it and the drag was very smooth. There are a lot of bearings on this reel, box says 11+1, and it feels like it. I have multiple bait- casters, including some other higher end models, and this MegaJaws Elite reel fits right along side the others.

Another great product from kastking. Very Smooth retrieval Smooth action.

5 NewfoundFisher
I own several KastKing spinning reels and other accessories but had n't tried one of their casting reels. Most of my casting reels are medium speed and I wanted to try this one at 7. 2: 1 to see if it would make it easier to work things like jerkbaits, where I often switch to spinning. The fit and finish of the reel are great... smooth drag, simple controls and good overall performance. The extra speed definitely helps keep slack line under control with jerkbaits and topwaters. Anti- backlash is excellent and I have n't had to fuss with the reel at all so far. Top marks!

Frequently Asked Questions For Dual Brake Baitcasting Reel

Dual brake baitcasting reels offer enhanced control and precision when casting, making them ideal for both beginners and experienced anglers. The combination of magnetic and centrifugal braking systems allows for better adjustment to various fishing conditions, reducing the risk of backlash. This versatility helps in achieving longer and more accurate casts.

Dual brake baitcasting reels are versatile and can be used for various fishing styles, including freshwater and saltwater fishing. They are particularly effective for techniques that require precise casting, such as flipping, pitching, and topwater fishing. Their ability to handle heavier lines and lures also makes them suitable for targeting larger species.

The braking system in a dual brake baitcasting reel combines two different mechanisms: centrifugal and magnetic brakes. The centrifugal brakes engage during the cast to slow down the spool's rotation, while the magnetic brakes provide additional control to fine-tune the casting distance and prevent backlash. This dual approach allows for greater adaptability to different fishing scenarios.

When selecting a dual brake baitcasting reel, consider factors such as gear ratio, line capacity, and overall weight. It's also important to evaluate the braking system's adjustability, as this will affect your casting performance. Additionally, look for features like ergonomic handles and durable materials that enhance comfort and longevity during use.

Yes, dual brake baitcasting reels can be suitable for beginners due to their adjustable braking systems that help prevent backlash. The ease of fine-tuning the brakes allows new anglers to gain confidence in their casting skills without the frustration of frequent tangles. However, it is still beneficial for beginners to practice and familiarize themselves with the mechanics of baitcasting.
