Piscifun Baitcasting Fishing Reel Super Compact, 16.5 LB Carbon Fiber Drag, Magnetic Brake System Low Profile Baitcaster Reel

Best reel I ever have smooth as always I use reel for pike lure fishing

Ok for river or lake rubbish for boat or beach can only put 30 yards on the spool

Struggled to keep line running off the spool each time I cast.

This reel is way above its price quality wise in both construction and performance and is perfect for dropshotting or jigging on the local canal with a nice light finesse rod . That about sums it up in a sentence really so if your dipping your toe into or are experienced at finesse fishing this reel will fit the bill perfectly especially at this price . Superb reel piscifun you hit it out the park with this one , wow !

This was a very pleasant surprise after my experience with the KastKing bait caster I tried in the same price range. It was very easy to adjust and has smooth retrieve. I haven’t thrown anything really light on it but with 15 lb braid I can throw a small Texas rig with just an 1/8 oz bullet weight and light 3” worm. I have it on a shorter stiffer rod just using it for light jigging and small Texas rigs. I’m going to try the 5.4:1 Torrent next I need a slow mid light for finesse/wacky rigs.

anyone just getting into bait casters or looking for a replacement one this is it spooled it up with 12lb mono 6ft6in rod used 1/8 and 1/2 oz jigs was down to the river casting for about 3 hours dialed it in and was off to the races was out casting a guy with a spinning rod for distance if your on a budget and don't want to break the bank this is the reel and i matched it up to a 6ft 6in medium rod rod was under 60 bucks no birds nests but murphys law is always there.

An 8.1 GR BFS reel for $40? Ya this is gonna break in days, too cheap to be any good....... Put it on a MLF rod and tied my homemade 1/8oz skirted crappie jig and off to testing. Holy crap, it works! It works well, feels amazing, and boy can it cast. 30+ yds on 1/8? Check. Clean retrieve? Check. Nasty drag for the trophy slabs? Check. Very impressed by this reel so far. Bought it cuz I saw it on Kuphall's boat at Guntersville when he blasted the field. Good enough for him, good enough for me. He's a pro, I'm not. Would be devastatingly effective for flipping medium cover I believe, based on the specs and what I know it does well. For short porching frogs or as a heavier BFS reel, it just wows me. Ordering 2 more: OG will be for BFS, 6.6 for frogs, and the new 8.1 for flipping. Nice find. Bought a PFun years ago and the difference is amazing. Way to step up. Easily competes w/$100 range reels.

I found Spark to be a quality reel. I comes with a shallow spool for BFS. When properly tuned. You will not get bird cages. This goes for all baitcaster. Set the tension first. To match the weight of the lure. Set the magnets next to stop the spool at the end of the cast. This prevents the spool from throwing ling at the end of the cast. The lure will drop in the water and the magnets stop the spool. The last thing is set the drag. Do not over tension the drag. You do not want it cutting into the line on the spool. Be patience when setting. Missed tuned reels will make any reel look bad. In the photo the spark is on the bottom. It is matched to a Bass Pro Power Plus Graphite 5' lite action rod. I fish mainly for trout in the Iowa Driftless. Those spincast are all Zebco 33 micro's. My wire swears by them on Shakespeare micro series rods. I 3D printed the hangers and reel holders.

tiny but mighty using 30lb braid on it with a 7ft lews med hvy casting rod also sometimes paired with 14lb berkley vanish as leader, have used this for going on 3 seasons no hiccups what soever smooth as silk , so far i have caught many a bass on this reel along with the torrent 7to1 reel both outsanding no issues what so ever plus im 71 years young and enjoy using these products no windlashes or back lashes easy to adjust
