The only gripe I have with this reel is the weight, but that goes with the size of the reel wwwyoutubecom/post/UgkxM68VkfsQhHaabDce1IwOCXuvumcpbZ_k I brought this salmon fishing up in Oswego, NY I coupled it with a Cabela's Whuppin Stick I had no problem pulling in a 14lb salmon I will probably use this for surf fishing this summer and downgrade to a 3500 series Battle II next salmon season to save my wrists All of the operations are butter smooth and the bail is nice and thick and has a solid flip to it Everything about this reel is sturdy and strong The drag system held up to the salmon and was also super smooth I did use a scale to set the drag properly before going out to the river and this worked out tremendously A bunch of other guys on the river would hook up and snap almost immediately Just because you have a good drag system doesn't do anything if you don't set it correctly

Im just back from a 1 week surf fishing vacation i live in a city where there is no beach i am like 800 miles from the my favorite beach so i can only go there on vacation anyway, i bought a saltist 5000 and paired with a 10feet rod what a nice combo I got a 27 inch red drum and the reel did not even force It was kinda easy to pull the 27 inch red drum out of the water I also have a shimano bait runner 4000 and when fish is pulling and reel handle rolling motion kinda become jerky on the shimano not on the saltist But saltist line has changed this year i bought the 5000 saltist but daiwa replaced the serie with the MQ Serie the 5000 is not the same as the 5000 mq daiwa changed the scale… to get the same with the mq serie, you need the mq 10000 which i don't know if they even make it… The saltist mq 5000 is a much more small reel than the original saltist 5000 not only the mq is smaller but also more expensive Next year i will buy another surf rod, i will probably go with another saltist oh as you are aware sand can kill any reel i had sand on the reel on many occasions luckily no sand got into the reel… always bring a water bottle to remove the sand that accidentally get on the reel

Comment from : David Vong

Fixing to buy a saltist mq 3000 I've used the heck out of my tatula 2400 and it's still as tight and smooth as day one
Comment from : Matthew Otis

Brand of the line?
Comment from : chapin yoker

I have fished for almost 50 years, sometimes using K Mart special cheap rods, and I have never had one break while casting I am not sure I could have stayed as calm as you did after it happened Too bad you don’t have any evidence or witnesses that it happened while casting 😂

Comment from : kong xiong

Comment from : chapin yoker

i have tried Shimanos and Penn Shimano is smooth but durability wise is not the best Penn is muscle Reels but not the lightest Thinking of giving the Saltist MQ a go and see how it goes with it
Comment from : Fish on

and i thought my stradic c5000xg was sweet
Comment from : West Coast Outdoors

My favorite reel! But that is the old (2017) Saltist! The new one from ICAST 2021 has a round aluminum knob,
Comment from : PESCA A STELLE E STRISCE

How much was youre rod?
Comment from : chapin yoker

Salvage the guides and build a nice no frills custom
Comment from : Eric Marroquin

I mean while those savage gear rods seem sensitive , I don’t think it’s because of great components, I think they simply just use the minimum amount of materials to make them light, and they feel like they are brittle , i too broke my savage gear rod and it’s an XH swimbait rod , tip broke casting a 15oz lure (made for 1-6oz)
Comment from : Andrew Wolf

Hey Lawson what size is jig head

Comment from : danny Rivas

I did have a stradic for my light set up but have a penn clash for my mh, if you use twitch baits the weight difference is big
Comment from : Kevin Young

Well, we’ll see how the following goes on the Savage Gear topic I’ll report back here in a month Recently picked up 3 savage gear surf rods…one 9’2” medium 075-2oz, one 10’2” medium 1-5oz, and one 10’6” medium heavy 2-6 oz Fuji reel seats and Fuji K guides Local company had them on clearance and I have about $80 per rod in them I take care of my gear but do fish a lot (space coast) Guess only time will tell……I’ll let u all knowbrbrUPDATE: 11/16/21 have fished all three rods over a dozen times So far all have handled fine Like the guides nice and smooth No big fish yet All whiting, pompano, few reds, mackerel, blues and bonnet heads Used the 9’2” for casting spoons and plugs at inlet 2 nice over slot snook No issues so far Not bragging or holding my breath…
Comment from : Calm Oceans

You should try the centaur rods The 7,7 constellation is great for tossing big lures My buddy caught a 70 inch bluefin on his

Comment from : SAMATON ANGLER

Thats not good for business when a rod breaks during casting on a major youtube channel
Comment from : Jason Moore

I've been pretty happy with bulls bay rods and crowder
Comment from : Drifter

Saltist reels are great! I’ve had a 3000 and 4000 for a couple of years now and they are just as good as they day I took them out of the box Super smooth reels and can take a beating
Comment from : Alex Padron

Do you use the TA clips for easy lure change, great video brother
Comment from : Jersey Abe

I feel like that reel is giant for a 5000 size real I have a 5000 size Shimano Twin Power and it is nowhere near that size
Comment from : Aiden camp

Hey man if your looking for a similar rod with similar specs to that savage gear I have a star rod vpr series and that thing is badass Highly reccomend
Comment from : logan powell

That was totally a piss off
Comment from : Joe Martin

That's definitely the old model Saltist, the new Saltist MQ is the one that won icast I have the 8000 (old model) and it's my favorite shark fishing reel I managed to pick up a 500 yard spool of 65lb Powerpro Maxcautro on sale and it all fit perfectly on the reelThanks for posting!
Comment from : MrDjones55

That's it! I gotta get one, great video!
Comment from : That Guy Reviews

Didn’t you lose a big bass because a savage gear swimbait had an open eye? Their quality control is lacking for sure
Comment from : trevojreal7

Savage Gear better refund
Comment from : GCAST

Comment from : fish guy

Comment from : Matt Stringer

Sucks that rod broke, Damm
Comment from : Lou V

Man that really sucks about the rod breaking!!! Hope they cover it under way for you Reel is awesomebrA possible solution for you with all the plastics getting bitten in half, tie on a trailer hook to the main hook and bury it in the tail of the bait I've been doing this for years when jigging and bottom bouncing different trout species here in the GTA, works fantastic All those short strikes started turning into landed fish in a BIG HURRY
Comment from : nobody important

The saltist MQ won the best I cast reel but might as well be that one😂

Comment from : Eric Alberti

Shark probably initiated the break 🥺
Comment from : Señor Queso -Richy Cuevas

That's the regular saltist? Not mq?
Comment from : Aric

Lawson! I recently made an artificial swim bait that is big and perfect for large snook, Your speciality! I am not a company trying to sell any products I would just like to send you some so I can get your feedback on them from a qualified fisherman I don’t want a video or promotion or anything, like I said I am not selling anything I just genuinely want your opinion Thanks man!
Comment from : Chasin Charters

9:15 480yds of 40# braid? no way!!XD i had a bg 5k, wich has the same size spool, i could barely fit 300yds of 40# jbraid x4 wich is thinner than their own jbraid x8 so, unless is a very special PE japanese ultra thin braid, there is no way in hell to fit an extra 180 yds on that spool
Comment from : Gabriel Duarte

Can’t vibe your Rod snapped, I have a $50 Walmart rod and it bends in half weekly and is perfectly fine 😂

Comment from : Rohz Popper

Send the video and rod to the company- you did nothing wrong
Comment from : captrock H

That looks like the old saltist, the 2021 saltist has a monocoque body and a aluminium knob
Comment from : LENOX Cebu

I got my legalis reel and it's just a piece of *** Really curious of their more expensive ones, but a little afraid
Comment from : Valentin Malinin

I had to add solder to some spoons to get them out far enough for casting because I didn't have enough heavy lures to get out far enoughbrbrI caught mostly trout and some salmon when the tide was right and the trout could go out into the ocean a little bitbrbrI had once a nailed a bald eagle and had to have a game warden hold it because he had gloves to unhook itbrbrThis was at the East Alsek river up in Alaska on my one day a week I had off
Comment from : madtownangler

Comment from : Pyro Maniac

Bull Bay Rods Brute Force Tarpon rod!! It’s a sick rod my man
Comment from : Brady Ooten

Savage gear is a lure making company stick to true rod manufacturers not an outsourced brand Falcon makes the best rods for a really good price As a rod builder I’ve built custom rods from old falcon blanks for shimano stella owners Their tarpon rods would be an awesome combo for that saltist
