I bought the BG 4000 as a Black Gold combo with the Daiwa rod and it is an amazingly smooth reel to cast and retrieve. Fully equivalent to my Stradic FK. Highly recommend for bass or bigger.

One of the best reels I have ever used. It's so smooth, powerful and sensitive. Its allot of handy features on it. No `` birdnest '' and it's really easy to cast with it and it's really far. Very nice reel, high price but worse it. Perfect combination with 11 feet Ugly Stick.

Mike NPR FL
Used to have the last model of 10k Saragosa SW. Was too big to cast or hold all day, so sold it and recently bought the 6k Saragosa SW A. Love it. Smooth and light and casts well. That said the 6k has limited line capacity. Fishing for pelagic species off the kayak in SE Florida the 8k or 10k makes more sense so may buy one for next trip down. Hard to find at local stores so online seems like the only way to get one.

g3rson
I bought this Okuma Startus 7 mainly for crabbing, and let me tell you, it's been a champ! Hauling up those heavy crab snares full of feisty Dungeness can really put a strain on your gear, but this reel has handled it like a pro. This reel is n't just a one- trick pony. I 've also taken it surf fishing a few times, casting out heavy bait rigs for halibut. The Startus 7 casts smoothly and far, which is essential when you 're trying to reach those deeper waters where the halibut hang out. It's held up well to the saltwater conditions too, showing no signs of corrosion. Honestly, for the price, I could n't be happier with this reel. It's a great all- around workhorse for anyone who needs a reliable saltwater reel without breaking the bank. It might not have all the fancy features of those high- end reels, but it gets the job done and then some. If you 're looking for a solid, budget- friendly option for crabbing, surf fishing, or general saltwater use, I 'd definitely recommend giving the Okuma Startus 7 a try.

I have several larger baitfeeder spinning reels for surf fishing, including a Penn Fierce III 6500 and an Okuma Avenger 8000 series. I was looking for something smaller/lighter but still tough enough for medium duty saltwater. I opted for the Penn Fierce IV 4500 series which I spooled with PowerPro 30lb braid, as opposed to paying almost double for a Spinfisher 4000 series with LiveLiner option. Very satisfied. Have caught blues on bait in the surf and some larger catfish in freshwater so far. Versatile setup.

I bought this rod and reel combo about two weeks ago, as an upgrade to my PENN Fierce IV Surf Combos for my shark surf fishing setup. Caught 3 big bat rays and a 5 ft long leopard shark on the combo with ease. Reel is insanely powerful, and by far one of the best reels you can get out there in the “ middle to expensive ” price range for PENN spinning reels. Rod is a little stiff, but it performs very well for the price of the combo and it held up well against the might of the leopard shark and bat rays with relative ease.

I have a few surf rods, all cost way more then this one and funny thing is this one is my absolute favorite. I tell everyone how shocked I was with how good this one feels and performs and that it truly is the best 20$ I ever spent in my life. I reeled in a 10lb striper out of heavy surf just the other day with 30mph headwinds casting a 2oz bucktail. I have the 11 ’ one. If you surfcast, try this rod. You ’ ll probably sell all your others. Feels so good in the hands and it ’s so easy on my back and the casting goes so far and the lure action is so easy to handle. Buy this rod now.

In the past I had a few bad experiences with Daiwa fishing gear and as a result was skeptical of their products for years. Then a couple months ago I bought a couple Daiwa reels that impressed me for carp fishing and they were so sturdy and solid and casted so well that I use them for saltwater as well. While the reels were up to the challenge for surf fishing my Carp rods were not so I picked up 2 of these 11 Daiwa surf rods and am so glad I did. They feel so good and solid and cast beautifully. I have so much control over where my bait lands with these rods and have just enough sensitivity to see and feel even the small bites. I am blown away by the quality of these rods and would recommend them to anyone.

When selecting a spinning reel for surf fishing, consider features such as corrosion resistance, a strong drag system, and a high line capacity. Look for reels with sealed components to protect against sand and saltwater. Additionally, a smooth retrieval system and a lightweight design can enhance your overall fishing experience.
Spinning reels designed for surf fishing are often made from materials like aluminum and graphite, which provide durability and resistance to corrosion. Some models may also incorporate stainless steel components to enhance longevity. It's important to choose a reel that can withstand harsh saltwater conditions.
The size of a spinning reel plays a crucial role in surf fishing performance, as it affects line capacity and the ability to handle larger fish. Generally, larger reels are better suited for surf fishing due to their ability to hold more line and provide greater drag power. Choosing the right size ensures you can effectively cast and retrieve in challenging surf conditions.
The drag system in a spinning reel is vital for controlling the tension on the line when a fish is hooked. A smooth and adjustable drag allows anglers to prevent line breakage and manage the fight with larger fish effectively. For surf fishing, a reliable drag system can make a significant difference in landing your catch.
While it is possible to use a freshwater spinning reel for surf fishing, it is not recommended due to the harsh conditions of saltwater environments. Freshwater reels may not have the necessary corrosion resistance and durability required for surf fishing. Opting for a reel specifically designed for saltwater use will enhance performance and longevity.
For surf fishing with spinning reels, braided line and monofilament line are popular choices. Braided line offers high strength and low visibility, making it ideal for casting long distances. Monofilament line provides good stretch and shock absorption, which can be beneficial when fighting fish in turbulent surf conditions.
