YouTube fisherman Briggsy found a unique way to test his new 2020 Saltiga reel.
According to a video Briggsy posted on
YouTube, the sportsman tied a fishing line to his 100-pound girlfriend’s
backpack and had her run at full speed to see if his new rod was powerful
enough to stop her.
Once Briggsy locked
his reel, his girlfriend was stopped in her tracks, and when he started to reel
her in she fell backward.
“It was just dragging me back and I felt helpless,” his girlfriend said. Briggsy, who says his lady friend is the same weight as an “easy catch,” then claims the reel is his new “go to.”
