I have the SLX DC and I absolutely love it,I have no problem casting any lure either heavy or weightless,and get plenty of distance no matter what im throwing.
I have 3 of the 4 slx,slx xt,slx dc they all serve a purpose my favorite is the dc because of the Digital chip making the noise and you can bomb it of course at the end of the day you can’t go wrong with a shimano period
I own 3 types of slx reels. I have xt, dc, and mgl 70. I've always wondered if these reels were worth the extra money over the standard slx. Your videos answered this and I see I did get better reels. Thanks
@@henryhillhouse5544 it depends on what you are wanting to use it for and how much you're willing to spend. The XT is a great all around reel if you're on a budget, the DC is my favorite but it costs more, you can't go wrong with DC, the MGL 70 is designed to throw lighter baits, I can cast 1/4 oz squarebills on it with ease when paired with a medium light rod.
@@aarondavis8224 I am willing to buy any of the reels and I would use it for weightless snd weighted soft plastics also some lighter top waters and jigs
@@henryhillhouse5544 yes the XT can cast just as well as the DC. Dc is a set it and forget it brake system. Changing weights of lures is easier since you don't have to make adjustments. I'm very thankful for dc on windy days. The XT can cast the same distance.
Now you also have #5. The 23 SLX DC 70/71 has reverted back to the IDC 4 brakes, it has a MGL 3 spool.anti rust treatment of bearings (saltwater OK). It has 6 ball and 1 bearings.
Thanks for the video! I just got into the Shimano reels, I brought the SLX DC this Spring and it has performed wonderfully. Im going to get the SLX XT and SLX MGL this fall, probably another SLX DC too.
Great video! I really enjoy the comparison videos you put out. You should do the same with other reels like Curados, curado K, curado DC, curado MGL, maybe some of the even older curados, like the curado 70. Metaniums, Diawas, ect. Maybe even show the casting distances of each of the ones you show and tell us which one you’d pick. I would have liked to see what the casting distance between the MGL is compared to the XT or base SLX to understand your pick a bit more and to see what you are getting for your money. Keep up the good work!
I have the base SLX for over a year and I have used it mostly in saltwater trying to break it so I can get a new one with my 2 year warranty and it still works perfectly fine hahaha solid reel!
Super comparison and thanks! I have the SLX DC 70 XG (actually mine is a lefty 71). It has of course the 70 size spool, and features the two tone paint, XT chrome knob caps and the SLX DC logo in a subdued black paint. So this is a looker and much nicer than the USA version. Bearing count on the box is 6+1. It is a JDM and bought mine because of your earlier info so thank you.
Agreed. Now Google news feed keeps showing me stories about biking. And won't stop. Even though I've said, " not interested in this topic"... It's because I frequently Google the slx reel lineup. This video helped me choose the xt over the mgl...
I find these reels to be almost unmatched at their price points. Here in Southern missouri, Lews has a big cult like fan base and I came close to buying lews reels in several occasions. Fortunately I was able to fish with some guys who are strictly Lews users. I was shocked at the quality difference between the base SLX model and a variety of $100-160ish Lews reels. It’s by no means a high end reel, but the gap between the two brands was like the gap between the SLX and a Curado DC or high end Shimano. The difference in rod performance was even more stark.
Love your vids man. Appreciate them. 😊🤙🏽 Quick questions. I need super long casting distance for light baits. Considering the MGL. (Or if you have any better suggestions for a similar price) The American MGL is often sold out and more expensive also so was thinking about grabbing the JDM version on Digitaka. Do you like one better than the other? Also I notice you usually have the high XG gear ratios and was curious why? 🤔😊 Thanks again man keep up the good work!
There’s no way I’m picking any of them over the DC but after that I agree on the XT model. I’m just one of the DC song lovers so only thing I’m taking over a DC is a better DC.
Update. I also order a stainless 95mm handle for the slx dc and now it really sets it off. Kinda feel like I should be working for shimano on designing how the reels look lol.
I own the xt and the dc as well and I love my slx dc but there is no denying that the slx xt just looks way more sleeker. Im gonna give it try putting my chrome xt knob end caps on my dc and see what it looks like. Its crazy to me that people like me and you who are regular dudes can get the styling scheme better for a shimano reel better than the slx dc designers at shimano. They nailed it with the slx xt but in my opinion whiffed it on the dc looks.
Great video man. Thanks. I absolutely love the XT, except for it's overall size. Awesome, smooth reel that performs great, but it's so darn small! Haven't handled a DC yet, but I'm going to get one strictly for the size. 👍🏼
I love the xt... its looks the best and its the best bang for ur buck... I am a little concerned about water getting into the side plate adjustment area? Also can the mgl spool go in any of the other reels?
Thank you this was soooo helpful which would be best for some galveston kayak red and trout fishing I will throw most often is some of my custom soft plastic lures
I have 3 of the new smaller Dawia Tatula’s 100’s and one of the older ones. Do you feel that the Daiwa Tatula 100 is a better reel then the Slx or on the same level as the Curado?
I have the JDM SLX MGL and the SLX DC. I use the MGL the most for Saltwater light lake and river. I have caught some large fish on ot with 10lb braid. Its a great real. What are the differences between the JDM Scorpion MGL and the SLX MGL?
Apologies if you’ve addressed it somewhere, but… does the XT spool fit and function in the MGL frame? Everything I’ve read says they’re the same frame, only the spools are different.
do you think the dc is worth buying on any reel shimano makes .or do you think if you can cast good with out it dont bother buying it?. i am on the fence!! with this dilemma. someone please help me out
So I bought a Shimano SLX XT and I can't seem to figure out what I have to do to get it to cast far. I don't know what I need to do to fix that issue if anyone can help just let me know. Please and Thank You
I have the Curado DC that I bought it last year I kind don't love it because I feel like it's a little to big for my hands and how I like to palm the reels when I am fishing. I was wondering how would the Curado DC and the SLX DC frame compare to each other? Are they pretty much the same size? Also, I am getting a JDM Scorpion DC that's arriving in November I was wondering the size frame difference on that as well. I love your videos! Anytime I am thinking about getting new reels that I haven't owned before I always come here to check you videos on them! Keep up! Do a video comparing those three reels if you would that would be sick!
Please could you help me as a newby! What is this with the spool size of the SLX? Is this depending on how much line you are able to put on your spool? I would like to have a SLX for pulling behind my boat from further distances and usually the line is too short for that. I would need a longer line on these reels. Could you please explain me if this is correct ? Or what model I should or could take. Needent to be the slx only. I just need more line for trolling behind my boat. I googled but maybe as I am not a totally native speaker don’t get the important certainty of the models differences. Would be very glad and very kind of you if you’d help out a German/Irish pal due to that issue :)
Can you do this with all curado reels also which reel do you recommend for saltwater fishing the curado k slx dc or slx Xt or should I get the curado dc even though its out of my price point
Hey I had a question my handle nut on the slx xt seems to be striped and I had accidentally ordered the regular slx handle nut are they the same or are they different?

@@rebelliousexist570 japanese domestic market. most fishing companies such as Shimano are based in Japan and therefore they get a few more skews of reels and rods than we do here in the states. these often have newer technologies or just slightly different. They are called JDM reels
You should try out the sixgill deluge, cyclone, typhoon, crius, or hamarr. Would love to see your opinion on them. I have a slx xt coming in tomorrow 😁 now gotta find a reel to replace my kast king spartacus.
@@juanlozano2630 no worries. Did you receive your Shimano SLX xt reel and if so what is your impression of it. I have the SLX and I really like it. The SLX is a Great reel for $100 I was thinking about purchasing XT reel.
Maybe its because i fish small creeks but i love my dc for daily work. If your gonna fish h&h's with just 1 combo while you walk 10 miles up a creek the fact that the dc doesnt birdsnest really helps out alot.
depends on bait weight you throwing because it will outcast all the others by quite abit when you throwing baits that was 3/8 or more which is basically anything to actual bass fish
@@garyk76 summer times in the creeks of setx a 3/8 chartreuse h&h is the only bait you need to slay bass. But you better have 3 or 4 of them because they hang up on anything they look at.
I've got the curado 70 xg which is the same reel, just right hand retrieve. I own the slx xt, slx dc, curado k and curado 70. The curado 70 is the best looking and smoothest retrieve out of all of them. And is by far the best palming and feeling reel in the hand that I've ever felt. I fish stuff as light as 1/8th ounce ned rigs and as heavy as 1/2 ounce jigs. It can pull both extremes off easily. And don't let the size fool you. It can straight horse a fish in if it needs to. If you are interested in buying a curado 70/71 I would definetly recommend it. Its a super smooth and nice reel thats excellent for pitching and flipping along with bfs fishing. Plus they have gone down alot in price over the years.
@@memeengineer6481 man thats awesome. Is it not the best feeling reel in the hand? That reel can literally cast almost any weight lure. And its so so smooth when fishing it. Have you got a chance to fish with it yet?
@@caseydangar1193 yes, the feeing is really really good, way better then my spinning reels. and you are right i can cast 4g lures easily with no problems
The important thing to consider is parts. If something where to go wrong, now your buying parts from japan or sending to japan for service. Rather than a local warranty replacement or reel repair service.
The XT is not sold in Japan. Only the MGL70 and the DC70. The XT is basically a base SXL with a better paint job and much better braking for adjustability and fine tuning
SLX XT ,Brake system is not carbon but plastic KKKKK , the plastic auger also like those from Aldebaram and the new metanium2020 KKKKKK. That's why I don't have Shimano. They want to save money and put plastic and then the fisherman wants to have a Shimano, if he knew the plastic that comes in it, it's not worth the price, pieces that will last a short time.

Is it good for throwing paddle tails? 1/4th to 1/2 ounce?
Dc is easy, try xt it outperforms the dc in distance

Great review….thanks for sharing this info.
Please do this curado’s, other shimano reels both spinning and casting, and other brands just like this video. And do this stuff I said with rods.
Does the SLX XT use the same gear and pinion as the SLX DC? I’m wanting to put a different gear in my slx dc
