I have 18 hours till discount is over? Would you recommend it to total noob in size 9/10 for pike? Help me quickly 😀
Excellent review Andy – and excellent fishing. I bought 3 of these reels + spare spools 4 years ago because I needed something cheap to hold several lines that were being tested and developed. I used 5/6 and 6/7 sizes. Generally speaking they have done the job. The drag system worked well on reservoir trout.
After extensive use 3 fault have come to light. 1. They are free running forwards and can overrun accidentally causing loose coils on the spool. 2, When changing spools while in the boat I lost the tiny outer bearing. 3. Clearance between the spool and cage can be excessive and allow leader to become trapped.
Picked up one of these reels (with backing, fly line and leader) for $29.25 shipped on Amazon.
I want one! I bought a high end Or_vs reel a few months back it is absolute crap.
I can beat you for value, I've a couple of Maxcatch Eco reels that along with sale and discount worked out at around £11.50 a reel and it's a decent reel, no idea where Goture are from but Maxcatch are from Chine and it took 5 days to arrive.
Maxcatch also make rods for the big brands.
News flash to anyone who doesn't know: Most branded reels/rods you buy for $200 are made in the exact same indo/chinese factories that produce these "unbranded" rods and reels. You can literally buy 20 of these from a wholesaler for $100
I have a goture 10 weight saltwater fly rod super fast action casts like a cannon .
Fish welfare paramount at all times use a landing net no matter the size….
Hi..what is the diameter measure (in centimeters) of the model for 3/4 wt ??
The only reels I put decent money into are the sealed ones that I need for saltwater. Otherwise, it's just a line holder.
I have this same reel from ebay different color it works real nice for $20
Hello from Canada! Amazing vid, nice rainbows, just subscribed – absolutely support small bait and tackle suppliers
Andy – can you tell me where to look for a floating landing net like the one I saw you use in the "reel bargain" video? Looks to be great at protecting fish, keeping them in water. Thx!
Fishing has been my passion ever since i can remember, but i just recently got into fly fishing. I love this video bro. Im subbed
Great review love how you explain things as you go interested in your landing net please keep explaining your French style fishing😃
I’m told that a good quality set of fishing glasses are very important, do you have any budget glasses you be able to recommend..?
Enjoyed that, see your point, but shops do make a killing, especially on hooks, like 10 – 20p each, likewise beads?
Goture actually makes decent products. i use their "tenkara" type poles and they r plenty strong. but i get it from amazon, wish takes about a month to get to me in texas. Great job!
I got a 35 dollar fly rod/reel combo from a walmart here in the US (about 28ish pounds) and it might not be the best rod/reel ever, but it's something to get you started, and I've caught 12+ pound fish with it. People dont seem to understand that you dont need 500 dollar rods, or thousands of dollars to have fun in this sport.
I have just tried your links , and they both come up with £40.00 odd reels , so I don't know where the17 comes from ??
You can buy these unbranded on Ebay or Aliexpress, postage paid direct from the factory and also with spare spools. I have a 9/10 (really a 7/8) with a couple of spare spools. Reel foot screws came loose but were easily fixed with a screw driver and some Lock Tight. Brilliant value and service.

I have watched just watched about 5 Wish review videos and its nice to see the positive reviews. Totally agree about the local fly shops, on that note last week i picked up a Leeda #7/8 reel for £19.99
Why test a cheap reel if you are never going to recommend it to your viewers. They will probably buy it anyway. I am more interested in your net and net clip. How about a video on that?
