At the suggestion of various members and given the magazines will run a mile from criticising a piece of kit, here is your chance to tell us what you really think about a rod, reel, line, lure... keep it legal please!

Wondering if anyone have used the new Daiwa BG spinning reel yet?
I'm planning to buy a smaller size one for a bass/pollock set up for lure fishing from shore that will be paired with a 8'6'' rod and 20lb braided line and I'd like to get some kind of feedback from anyone that had actually used it.
Cheers!

Hi florinc20 The first Diawa spinning reel I purchased and it rotted with rust after the first season fishing in saltwater .So make sure the one you are going for is a saltwater version of it.I how have some these in sizes 2.5 / 3.000/4000. And would recommend them for all saltwater work great reel.see here=

Personally cant go wrong with Daiwa, although I'm starting to move to Penn!
