What customers say about "Key Specs"
Daiwa BG 3000 (0001-4132) Spinning Reels
- This reel has the same bearings as the ultra premium reels , and feels ultra smooth.
- his is an outstanding reel, it has a rubber gasket around the spool to make it easy to spool braid without any hassle or need for a monofilament backing.
- This is an awesome, high quality reel. 3000 size is perfect for bass, inshore fishing, and even salmon
- Fantastic reel, oversized spool and super smooth! Really love the machined aluminum.
- Loaded it with 30 lb test Suffix 832 Advanced braid and just used it for 4 weeks in Florida. Very impressed with this reel.
Shimano NASCI (NAS4000XGFB) Compact Spinning Reel
- The reel is very smooth with a feel of tightness found in reels that cost twice as much.
- I have it spooled with 17 lb test nano fil on a Med / Hvy spinning rod rated for 1/4 - 1 oz lures. Casts amazingly well and I had zero line issue.
- So far these reels seem to be a great bang for the buck. Smooth and a nice drag.
- Super smooth drag that handles big reds and snook flawlessly. Paired it with a Gander Mountain Tournmanet mediam-heavy rod.
- Smooth action, excellent drag.

What customers say about "Drag"
Daiwa BG 3000 (0001-4132) Spinning Reels
- The same, identical to the number Japanese bearings that the Saltiga and Shimano Stella reels use. Same top tier Daiwa lubricant is also used.
- It's built like a tank and it is easy to adjust the drag.
- Smooth. Great drag. Casts well. Braid ready. Looks great. Hard to beat at this price point.
- Very smooth,very adjustable drag. Mostly used for light saltwater kayaking with 15lb braid.
- The drag is buttery smooth and it can hammer down when needed to.
Shimano NASCI (NAS4000XGFB) Compact Spinning Reel
- What I liked most is the smooth action, super strong and smooth drag! This reel is light and compact but able to handle larger fish in saltwater.
- As always, Shimano reels are great! Very smooth and balanced.
- Light, responsive. I really like the way the drag is easy to set.
- There is a serious problem with the geometry of this this reel.

What customers say about "Features"
Daiwa BG 3000 (0001-4132) Spinning Reels
- They have many high end features found on reels five times their price, such as NMB bearings, anodized coating, and a silky smooth drag system.
- They are sealed very well too and hold up in the salt.
- The BG 3000 is a small reel, the action is very good and smooth and with practice you can make it reel without even using the handle.
- I like it. Smooth, durable and has a good seal all around. Paired with 15lb suffix camo braid.
- Sizing is larger with line capacity when compared to Shimano Stradic or Symetre. Slower gear ratios. Better feel than Penn Battle 2.
Shimano NASCI (NAS4000XGFB) Compact Spinning Reel
- The reel was used every day in saltwater for a week and it cleaned up very well ,so I guess the protective coating advertised works.
- Tip of reel crank handle is texturized, thick, flat, T-shaped with rounded top. This allows for a very strong grip when placed in the palm between ring finger & middle finger.
- Great value for money, strong enough drag to fish inshore and offshore. Smooth operation, and great a fast line retrieve.
- All I use is Shimano spinning reels and this one is just as good as my stradic for less. I would recommend to anyone, very smooth drag and action.
- Anti-reverse feature is permanent with no switch to manually reverse retrieve.
