Anyone know how these hold up against the salt? Not expecting it to be fully sealed, but don't want the damn thing to unravel on me a year in.

The biggest factor aside from the brand is the size of the reel and rod rating. If you are expecting to catch fish that are 15-30lbs you probably want a rod rated 15-30 or even bigger. If you have to...

The BG is a very solid reel, but I already have one of those in the arsenal, so I’m giving this one a try.
The Daiwa BG 2500 ($97) and the 3000 ($99) on Amazon. Good deal, but not as slick of a...

The BG 2500 was $86 just last week on Amazon. Got mine on Saturday but haven't had the change to use it yet. Diawa BGs are one size larger than their model number suggests.
For my light weight...

I think you’re pretty right on. I’ve the Battle II and BG in 4000 size and they’re comparable, giving the slight edge to the BG for being smoother. I’m getting this strictly for the weight. It makes...

Penn is a drop ship brand too. I'd stay away from brands like Penn, KastKing, etc. and stick to the proven brands (Shimano, Daiwa just to name couple).

You are right! Most people are not catching 15-30lb fish from pier or inshore. You only need these if you are targeting certain species.
Most tackle I see people carrying to the beach is bit of...

A big question about sizing for pier fishing is how are you landing the fish. If you’re picking fish up by the rod and reel to land them then everything is bigger than usual for that size fish. If...

$104 is a decent price for this reel but it's gone for less in the past.
I've seen these reach the $75 range for the reel in 3000 size and $100 for the reel in 8000 long cast size (woot). Overall...

I think they hold up fairly well from what I've heard. Just avoid submerging them in saltwater and dropping in the sand. And always rinse them down with fresh water. Don't blast with a hose - just a...

KastKing is a drop ship brand but Penn makes high quality products. Their quality is on par with the other Japanese brands you mentioned.

Or wait for a sale and snag the Shimano Stradic Ci4 instead. It was $150 not long ago. Will probably hit that again for Black Friday / end of season sales.

Shimano Stradics go for $150!?
When and where!? I just bought one and it's SO smooth. I am definitely looking to grab another to slap onto my jerkbait rod.
