The black gold daiwa BG
What can I say about this reel It is awesome I have purchased 8 of them to of each size. And this real at this price I believe that daiwa Has redefined the nature of a spinning reel. This real will definitely send many back to the drawing board I have been fishing them for about a year now And I have not had one failure know wind knots. It has performed flawlessly 47 over slot red fish and counting 16 tunas Hundreds of bluefish Long and she get on the 4000 3000 and 5000 They are in heavy rotation surfacing and bass fishing. 5000 and up I have caught grouper snapper false albacore Barracuda and one small sailfish this real is an amazing piece of work. To the daiwa will family thank you for such an amazing product. Looking to buy more just to haveRead full review

Smoothest spinning reel I have ever tried
I bought the BG2500 and it is simply an amazing reel. I would say "for the money" but that doesn't do it justice. I'll just say it's an amazing reel period. Absolutely buttery smooth effortless turning. Very rigid frame and the drag click is just the way I like it.. LOUD like a bell. You will not miss it if you are day dreaming while fishing or if you leave your rod in a holder and walk away and a lunker starts pulling out your drag! If there is anything bout it I may critique is the compactness of it...It took me a minute to find just the right grip to avoid my middle knuckle from getting wacked by the rotor when reeling in, but this is just a getting-used-to type of thing. I think it has some to do with how it's angled toward the rod a bit. At any rate this is a seriously nice spinning reel!Read full review

Diawa Fan
I am a novice angler who used to fish a lot as a kid. I have been very pleased with the Diawa BG series I now own the 4000 and the 4500 they are very close in size sorta wish I went 5000 on this purchase but reviewing the specs I am overall pleased and would buy it again.I use them both for saltwater shore fishing from a jetty as well as Surf fishing and they both work VERY well.I really like the drag. It is smooth and easy to set.Read full review

Awesome reel !!
The best of the best reel ! Rock solid quality and the reel casts a country mile ! It holds up the initial run of the mighty king mackerel, and brings that bad boy in ! And it looks good !!

Great reel
It's a powerful reel that is smooth and can keep up with the fastest catfish swimming right at the boat. It also helps with longer casts. Must be the way the reel I'd set up. Anyway it's casts further than most other reels I've had. Read full review

Great reel at a great price
Solid reel. They run large. A 4500 is similar to a 6000 Penn. Great drag, large handle, light, good line capacity and very smooth.

Diawa BG4500
So far so good. Have the 4000 also. Quality reels. Never thought a 100$ reel as poor quality as some say. Standing next to the guys with 600-700$ VS’s and I’m catching fish and they ain’t. Love em

Awesome reel!
Great looking reel, light weight, and very smooth action. I put braided line on mine bit I haven't had a chance to use it on big fish yet.

Diawa 4500
Excellant reel. I am happy I read the reviews and went with the 4500 model. It is very smooth ( like butter ) and will defiantly haul in anything I'm able to fish for. Thank You.

Smooth Operator BG 4500
Very fluid piece of equipment. Feels great in the hand. The handle assembly is top notch. Manual Bail. Old school cool. They spent the money on the components instead of unnessessry bells and whisles. This reel covers a lot of fishing territory in a reliable consistent fashion. Pair it with a decent 7’ rod with a bit of backbone and add a touch of patience and you’re good to go for about 85% of the fish you can reach from the beach. Solid reel, and a bargain at its asking price.Read full review
