I use this reel for fishing trout in the small mountain creeks in Italy.
I couple it with a Dankung fiberglass rod and 0.08mm braid line.
The pros:
-Sturdy and durable materials.
-Ultralight spool.
-Progressive drag.
-Very good castability even with few grams lures.
The cons:
-Heavy compared with other BFS reels.
-Good brake system, but brake tuning very difficult. You have to rotate the all side plate and there are no marks to let you understand at what point you are.
My overall comment is very good, but the brake setting could be a drawback.
Very pretty and aesthetic reel. I’m very thankful
I am going to lot of fun using this slingshot , great service great communication , good products !!!
The only thing I hope it was better that the colors that I ask for I should've received it . In the website they should be indicating the colors what you have so we could pick it ! but it's ok
Im using for left hand side reel.
Hi, do you have this rod
Hi, do you have this rod
It's solid and well built. And a milestone reel! .After using this, I genuinely believe that DC controlled reels represent the next step for the entire reel industry. It provides an incredible new experience. In general, the brake control is exceptional, allowing for not only up to 1000 precise brake adjustments but also numerous other useful controls for different casting techniques via APP. These include flick casting, precise position casting, and casting as hard as you can without experiencing backlash, among others. I have tried on some of them, the presise positon casting function is impressive.
Mine is the Gunmetal reel (Non-DC edition), and the shipping was incredibly fast, taking only 12 days. My first impression is that it's a well-crafted reel with a nice design. It's slightly smaller and appears to be more durable compared to the Tendershoot reel. Right out of the box, the reel effortlessly casts 1g, and it also performs very well when casting over 15 grams. The smoothness of its performance right out of the box is impressive.
I'm very happy with my Panther. I'm glad I purchased it. I am shooting both looped tube and flat bands from it and I have a lot of fun doing it.
This is a really top class rod.
Beautifully crafted with quality materials.
Do not expect a very soft rod as some other Chinese products, Dankung explain this in the specs.
All in all: a beautiful rod with character.
