Will you all be checking out the new Stradic FL?
ОтветитьPlease tell me the difference in Japanese Stradics 2500 she vs American FL
ОтветитьAre all your older stradics 3000 sizes? I cant make my mind up on the 3000 or 4000 fl?
ОтветитьComing from a $50 daiwa regal this thing is a million times better
ОтветитьGive us an update!
ОтветитьI service & sell reels for a job, and the FJs were the best Stradics ever. Hence I have collected every size, right up to the 8000.
ОтветитьMy fk still going strong for 10 years now. But heard one small slight issue with the new stradic. My buddy told me that he bought it brand new and having little issue with drag being slipping while fighting fish. But according to the shop told him it need to be break in
ОтветитьThe new FL is awesome. Smooth long casts, Great drag (With a good click sound) and not even as heavy as my old MgfA 2500. The only thing that's annoying me is that because the spool is longer it's awkward to flip and cast. It sits too high on my rods. I use the 1000 for my Trout fishing (Awesome).
ОтветитьI was given a shamino spinning reel stella 18000 shamino reels have a smooth drag system
ОтветитьI have the stradic 4000fk and 3000fk. I was told that the stradic 5000FL spool can fit on the stradic 4000FK body...is it true?
Ответитьtu en pense quoi maintenant ? il resiste bien dans le temp ??
ОтветитьIm a new subsriber from Philippines...thank you for the reviews..
Ответитьthank you, you answered my question
Ответитьi have two 2500 fjs, worth upgrading?
ОтветитьI got my shimano stradic fl today it’s says hg what dose the hg stand for? Dose it stand for high gear?
ОтветитьStill using my 4000FJ after 7+ years.
Ответитьjust picked up stradic 1000 for $50 . don't know how i got such a great deal
ОтветитьI still have my Stradic that I got as a teenager in the early 90s....never had to buy another reel after that. Do they still build em as good as they use to?
ОтветитьI just ordered a low ratio JDM fl. Now it's the waiting game. My first stradic. Now it's time to shop for a nice inshore spinning rod to strap it to.
ОтветитьI fish 1000 size reels tossing mini jigs for trout in the Eastern Sierra. I hunt only trophy trout and makes hundreds of casts a day when I’m on the water.
In my humble opinion for ultra light fishing I feel the best Stradic reel is the Mgfb. Nothing has come close since. I have several old FH and FG and they’re still fantastic if maintained.
I Personally can’t stand the feel of the Newer ci4 reels.
With all that said I rarely fish my stradic reels anymore. For my type of fishing nothing is better than the sustain 1000FG.
The new Fl does look nice but if I were going to get a new reel it would probably be the Vanford as I hear it’s very different than any ci4 reel before it.
Tight lines
Shimano failed on 3 things on this reel to make it a global home run.
1. No folding handle like on many and previous models.
2. No service port.
3. No reverse. I do not care for it but some will.
4. No protective cloth bag like previous models.
5. The "Taller spool" claim is false. It's not anything taller than a Stradic 1000MgFB spool. I measured less than a 1mm height between the two.
Nice review though.
You gotta be kidding me the FL feels well better than the fk and fj
ОтветитьSo few weeks ago I had a chance to fish new stradic FLs from panama city pier. I actually bought a 5000xgfl and a hybrid model 3000mhg(fl) from asia. In my experience using 10-15lb suffix 832 on 5000 size was the best, my friend used 20lb suffix 832 on his 5000xgfl and from time to time he would get a wind knot, but he did land a nice king mackarel and a 4' black tip shark.
Most of the time there, I used the stradic 3000mgh on a 7'4 Falcon coastal rod and I just could not put it down, it was the most fun I had in a while. Unfortunately 3000mhg is not available in US (4000 size body with 3000 size rotor and 3000 size shallow spool and it has medium speed gears), but I used a US spec 3000 size spool which is sold with c3000xgfl in US. I was able to bring a sting ray and a small black tip shark to the pier but I lost them when they went around pilings. Also landed few bonito and a ton of spanish and blues and hard tails. Using much lighter braid and a 1 oz goch-ya plug I could cast farther than everyone else. And lifting 3-5 pound spanish up the pier was not too difficult. Sttadic FL really impressed me. Maybe I will get new 2020 twinpower next when i get a coupon, lol.
Whats with the plastic sounding drag? The spool is nice tho.
ОтветитьJust purchase two 3000fl’s and looking forward to use on the gulf coast. I’m now interested in the larger stradic models for tarpon. Suggestions?
Thanks for the review, love the comparison
Australia also has the HG model.
ОтветитьI loved your video and I love reading the comments. I just bought one and I will receive it tomorrow. It will be my first Stradic 😊 Thanks for the great review, it only makes me want it faster lol
ОтветитьI just purchased a daiwa certate 19 LT 5000D, penn ssVIlc 5500 and have my FL on order lol, I’m going to swap out some of the bushings with Stella bearings. Can’t wait to take them on the water.
ОтветитьAre you going to upgrade some of the bushings for bearings?
ОтветитьReally looking forward to Bull Drum season this year so I can put my Stradic C5000XG to work and see how it does. Super nice reel and worth every penny!
ОтветитьMake a video about twin power 2020
ОтветитьNice review. Buddy of mine submerged my 3000FJ.... real bummer after 5 years of rock solid performance inshore SW FL. Just ordered the 3000FL. Go Gators!
Ответитьhow about stradic sw? is it good?
ОтветитьI watch this video 7 months ago. But now, i just got my Stradic FL. Now i realized what he said was true and he had a good point 'its can' t do everything absolutely crazy for you'.
I just keep it in my store and waste my money. You can buy it if you a collector, thats all.
I just bought the Shimano C14 C3000HG-B is it similar to your reel, and, when did Shimano eliminate the anti reverse switch? Thanks
ОтветитьWhich one you will get between the FJ and the FL ? I have been offered to buy new FJ ( staying couple of years in the store) for the same price of new FL .
ОтветитьThis reel or a calida Lt ..help me please haha ..i want a reel with very low play in parts around handle meeting the reel body want everything to work smooth and dont wiggle
ОтветитьI know this is over simplifying things but which is the superior reel, FL or Ci4+?
ОтветитьSuperb review, thank you. I have an old FJ that needs to be replaced. Looks like the FL is worthy successor.
ОтветитьThe New FL has Stella Guts.. As opposed to the FK which has the Sustains' ... The New FL has a bigger, stronger drive gear with more teeth..Line Roller, and clutch are assembled manually rather than in a one piece design..Carbon drag as well.. Big difference there in my opinion but all in all BOTH Great reels!!
ОтветитьI was so skeptical about micromodule , silent gear n long spool things but honestly all r real , this reel is better by noticeable margin vs fk , ci4+ or any even sw one.
ОтветитьAre the FK spools compatible to the FL spools? I have a C5000 XG FK and I'm shopping for a second reel of that type. Would be cool if they could share the exchange spools. If it doesn't fit, I guess I'll rather get myself a second FK. If I can find one, that is.
ОтветитьHey bro, great vid. would you mind doing a review on the Shimano sephia ci4 3000?
ОтветитьFyi, you can add 6 bearings to the fl.
ОтветитьCi4 or FL for a light tackle saltwater reel? Should I save a few pennies and go fl? Is the fl even “sealed” ?
ОтветитьI broke my Stradic ci4 but I have “insurance” on it. When I take it back should I grab the new FL and save a few bucks or stick with the ci4? It’s a 3000 and is my smallest saltwater reel. I think I would be sacrificing sealing and weight, is that right? Is the FL even saltwater rated etc...? Great vid, any help would be appreciated thanks.
ОтветитьJust shut up
