Awful voiceover

(surf casting) anyone know how the bail holds up? does it fail alot or no?
would it be better to modify it to be bailless or not? i'm sure the baitrunner would only work by the trigger and not the crank no more...
anyone know if bailless is a better option? 8000d

I have a 6'6" Trevala. I was thinking a 6000D, good choice?. My 4500B is too big for the rod (which is comparible to the 8000).

whats the shimano baitrunner 6000 like ?
-
should i get the 4000D or 6000D for surf casting? need to hold maybe 300yards of 20lb braided.....is the reel too heavy??

Can it be used for jigging?
Carlos, good review, only you did not mention the baitrunner feature of the reel, which is the main reason for buying it.
They have also revised the direction of the baitrunner switch, its now "on" ie in free spool mode when pulled back. I find this is better as its out of the way when its "off".

@rutilus99 Thanks for mentioning it for me!
These reels are HOT this season. Fishermen have been scooping them up. Great fighting reel and extremely versatile.
