Just got back home to Fla. from N.C. My new DWU and BK2 were waiting for me. BOTH had fixed brakes. Since James Calley's recently recieved BK2 had dynamic, what you get may depend on whether you happen to get an old stock item or one more recently manufactured.

@@TheConstantAngler I think it’s the only downside to this reel, apparently you can add 0.5 mm magnets on top of the existing ones and should help a bit. I’ll let u know once mine came and tested

@@beautifulfishing if it’s the original with the dynamic braking system then yes you can and it will make a hell of a difference but if it’s the normal fixed in a semi circle on the end plate I’m not sure.

Is it worth it to upgrade the spool bearings to micros, micro ceramics, or something like it? The bearings are $20-30 I already have the tools
@bassnbonsai
Жыл бұрын
In my opinion no the bearing upgrade may only add a slight casting performance and usually make it louder during casting.. ceramic or hybrid ceramic for sure but even micro bearings are usually a touch louder.. I feel the Dark Wolf Ultra bearings are nice and would only consider upgrading after like a season or two or when it's time to replace the stock bearings do to wear

Hey there. So I'm just curious as to whether you've tried, and or, know of anyone who's tried the new tsurinoya genius? I now have two dwu's, a pw100, one of those green zephyr knock offs, (which isn't half bad for 21 bucks) and a curado bfs. I want to upgrade all of those, so any good info is appreciated. I don't ever see myself spending more on my bfs setups than the curado, mostly because I have enough bass setups and am really just kinda interested in how much I can get out of the budget bfs stuff. That in itself is almost as fun to me as the bfs fishing has become. I think the dwu's are a steal at that price point and was interested in hearing about the upcoming genius, only to find out that the spool was a bit heavier, and it has regular magnetic braking? Seems almost a downgrade seeings you can get the dwu for like 56 bucks now. Any thoughts, or opinions on this? Just curious, you're definitely more up on this stuff than I am. I am also interested in anybody else's opinion on it. Thanks.

You said it.. I think it's a downgrade also so won't be buying or recommending it.. the DWU is what I recommend for UL BFS and the Acura is what I recommend for all around bfs and regular bass fishing.. then on the higher end of fishing but dipping into BFS I recommend the 1000 Zillion sv boost...

Yeah completely different reels.. if you want the smallest and most capable one get the ultra for sure.. the old dark Wolf is a way bigger reel and less capable for bfs
