Can I get a thumbs up for a black Kestrel II with smooth felt drag and 4.6 to 1 gear ratio with MSRP of $70?
I caught a real nice bass with my son today on your jig head with 2lb line and a Berkeley nymph. 3 minutes of drag screaming and jumping. Was amazing.
Just to play devils advocate, Isn't a high gear ratio better for stream fishing when retrieving your lure with the current? Not all ultralight angling is fishing the bottom.
I have one on the way, will be curious to compare it to my other CDM reels
People are obsessed with drag and bearing numbers. Give me smooth drag pressure and smooth feeling reel. Some of my favorite reels have bushings and last in the saltwater.
I have bought the VE, it's the cheaper version of this, at 134 grams. It's nice for the 40 euros that i've paid. I use it with small jigs and small spinners (1,2-2 grams), with a nice 60 grams 198 cm rod (0,2-5 grams). I've managed to land a 45 cm chub with it, without problems. I agree that the breaks are to powerful, a 3 kg max was more than enough, even 2 kg was good.
Glad you said that the Kestrel was on par with other companies besides Daiwa and Shimano. I think that the Kestrel and Presso were a good combo for Backpackers and hikers that like to travel light.
Finally ordered the soare xr s80ul+ it should come some time around early July which is perfect since that's when rivers open up again 🙂
Anyone wanting to buy felt drag washers in the uk.
Then Weston Developments sell them.
Reasonably priced as well.
I bought some for a 1000 size vanford that i got of ebay that the seller changed to carbon drag washers.
Once i fitted the felt washer the drag was noticeably smoother.
Hi? can you please tell me what is the exact drag washer you bought? cuz im also planing to switch carbon to felt washers 🙂 thanks! good review!
People, I fish for more than 40 years. I fish now three-four-five times a week. Want my honest advise? Buy Daiwa or Shimano. No discussions, no questions, no bla bla bla bla by influencers. Just buy Daiwa or Shimano and forget kastking, bearking or whatever "king" crap. Period.
Got a twin power and daiwa exists. Wont look back. Save time on those cheap reels and stay away from troubles of cheap reels. Shimano & daiwa reels are the best
I am very glad to say that I have watched all of your videos in the Kastking Kystral spinning reel. I understand what you are trying to relate to Ultralight fishermen and to Kastking very good job !
