Can I swap the handle from one side to the other on a Diawa BG 8000? It's different than what I'm used to. Not sure how or if I can swap sides.
To be honest they are not that much of a difference in terms of perfomance between the 2. The only main different is the "Black Gold" 2016 does not require any "special tool" to open up the reel like the "Big Game monocoque" does. Moreover, for the MQ it is not only gonna cost more for the reel itself but also cost more to buy the "special tool" as well. something to consider for anglers who want to do their own maintenance. I mean i wished they have different material for the main gear like brass or stainless steel rather the same material as 2016 BG. that would be a huge different.
Just bought a moon shine 6, 6 medium light finesse rod. Looking for a solid reel to do mainly fresh water but some salt. Looking between the diawa and penn. Target species bass. Any suggestions
They should of made the mq in black snd gold too , I d besold the old bg looks better
Awesome. Could you perhaps do comparison between the BG MQ and The BG MQ ARK ?
Difference in 2500H vs 3000XH, specific the X and H? please pair with a bull bay rod
I would rather have more line to play with than worry about drag ,It may be important for the novice anglers but an experienced angler will know how to play a fish .
Daiwa needs to improve its game. A cast zinc main gear on a $200 reel? El Cheapo.
Love Diawa reels. I’m still using a GS 10 that I bought in the early 80’s.
I trust my old BG5000 and the second generation BG4500 twin stopper.. They're so robust.
It survived Thailand monster 100 + kg stingray.( There are more bigger ones…) So, it's good for me ! It's not expensive. BG are legendary !
Hi Salt Strong, I have a question about the Daiwa BG MQ. I live in the midwest (nowhere near saltwater). Is the Daiwa BG MQ for saltwater fishing or can I use the reel for freshwater? Or, should I buy the Daiwa Tutula Elite spinning reel? Both reels are priced the same. I happen to like how the BG MQ looks.
I just bought a 4000 which has the same drag, and I am considering using it for striper in New England, but I don't know what max size fish it can handle. I already have a penn slammer 6500 HS and a 4500 Daiwa bg, but the Penn is on the bigger side for the cape cod canal and in my opinion not needed. I can do the job with less but I don't know if the 4000 bg mq is too little.
