Sido Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Fellow Raiders, As we all come across with our fishing passion - in a bit of a dilemma which reel to buy out of Sustain FG 4000 or Biomaster FB 4000. To be used for soft plastic targetting of fish in general out of my boat - flathead, snapper, small kings etc. Both have simialr features and similar price with advantage of Biomaster coming with spare spool. On shimano website Biomaster ranks ahead of Sustain. Any suggestions or feedback from experience would be greatly appreciated. Sido Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sydangler Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 I've never used a bio master but I've just bought a 2500 sustain and its straight away one of my favourite reels. I fish 10lb through it and its just so smooth. I tend to steer clear of new reels till they have proved they can stand the test of time. I out there's anything wrong with them just personal opinion.

PowerFisher Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Sustain FG has a higher gear ratio than the Biomaster FB. Both have Xship so the biomaster might be better for bottom bashing / slower types of fishing etc. Very similar how they have the stradic CI4 and Rarenium CI4 same reels different ratio's and the Rarenium comes with the extra spool.
