    Ya I’m enjoying this man as much as a man can without things just getting out of line. Good content, down to earth, great editing, he’s a regular guy with great gear but not out of the world so he’s relatable. I’ve been looking for a new go to. And I found it. Thanks man appreciate you.

    It’s funny how many people want that smallest reel possible in hand. I have really big hands so I don’t really notice any reel until we get into the 200-300 size.

    Dude, gotta say that I'm new to the channel and haven't been able to jump into those higher end reels yet, although I know there's higher, higher end reels, but I just loved listening to your take on each reel and the love you showed to each reel. Well done, Justin!

  • @scottsinclair9525
    @scottsinclair9525 Před 3 lety +6

    I have 7 Curado K's and someone talked me into a Daiwa Tatula 100XS. They said it was better than the Curado K.... Yeah, it's not.The Curado K is SO smooth. It's a man among boys in its price range.

    • @bro1ification
      @bro1ification Před 3 lety +1

      The tatula sv is an amazing reel it is buttery smooth always. I also love the curados dont get me wrong. But we can take away how the sv runs and casts tiny baits. That being said id rather throw long casts on a curado dc

  • @bassinbilliards6279
    @bassinbilliards6279 Před 3 lety +2

    Shimano SLX, SLX DC, SLX mgl 70, Shimano Nasci, Shimano stradic ci4+ and Shimano Stradic FL. These are the ones I have and they're all great for the price. Not one complaint.

    • @zanemccauley2209
      @zanemccauley2209 Před 3 lety

      Is there a crazy difference between the mgl and the DC

  • @robbuchanan8006
    @robbuchanan8006 Před 3 lety +1

    Those are gorgeous. I'm Rob Buchanan from Richmond Virginia, I swear by Shimano reels I run their spin cast quick fire as well as a curado. I'm right handed so I find the left hand return is more convenient, heres why, that split second of switching hands. If a fish hits on the drop you stand a chance to lose it. So in my opinion for right handers the left had retrieve is ideal because it eliminates that split second gap, creating a controlled rapid fire capability. I'd love to here your thoughts on the subject

  • @michaelflowers1318
    @michaelflowers1318 Před 3 lety +1

  • @suhailasmal8954
    @suhailasmal8954 Před 3 lety +3

    The curado 50e in my opinion is the best for throwing weightless flukes.
    My favorite reel I own

  • @beardosd
    @beardosd Před 2 lety +1

    The Curado K is also my favorite. I own almost all the SLX line but the Curado is just a beast of a reel and is perfect for just about anything.

  • @iamjeepy6
    @iamjeepy6 Před 3 lety

    Congrats on closing in on 20k, great list and good to hear that I am getting a Shimano Curado K 200 from the Big Guy in Red this year. Down side would be waiting for spring here in the north..

    Just picked up the scorpion 2021 DC for 190$. The USD is so strong against the JPY right now that it’s incredibly cheap for the Id5 breaking DC reel. Super happy I got one. Already have the Curado K and slx DC

  • @nickfountain8420
    @nickfountain8420 Před 3 lety +1

    I have two '18 Metanium's non DC and two Chronarch's. I have noticed that the Metaniums do cast better and feel smoother. Should be no surprise though since the Metanium's were about $140 more a piece. My sister asked me what she could buy the B'law last year for Xmas, I told her a Metanium, she got him one and he did break down and tell me at the end of this fishing season that it's the best reel he's ever owned. He does currently own two Chronarch's also.

    • @adwhite804
      @adwhite804 Před rokem +1

      Not sure the deal...but chronarchs are ....wierd. the slx dc is actually better. In the opinion of a scrub.

  • @tegteg798
    @tegteg798 Před 3 lety +2

    Great Video my man! Exactly what I was looking for. I came across your channel researching the Scorpion. I have the Curado K, Curado DC & SLX DC. I was surprised at your #1 over the DC's but I can agree... That's why I have 2 of them ; ) Anyway, I subscribed and glad I found this channel. Now I need to find a Left Hand Retrieve Scorpion...

Curado was my first, then SLX and I’m just as happy using it. Especially for the price. But the Curado is really nice. I ain’t mad at it.

    I just bought the slx dc. So far i really like it, I'm new to baitcasting so the dc system is helping me flatten the learning curve. I'll be the first to admit i suck with a non dc baitcaster. That dc tech is a life saver. I did really like the curado dc for all the reasons you mentioned, it feels smoother and just over all more well built than the slx. But i couldn't justify the extra 60 dollars for the curado

    What is that string holding the reel handle in place on #5 rating reel? Where can I get one?

    Ohhhhh. I thought the Scorpion was gimma (*gunna ) be top dog. But , you can't go wrong with any of those reels.
    I personally am a Diawa guy ( just because of my pops,grandpops ,uncle's...they used a lot of Diawas and Penns...the occasional Abu of they were splurging.
    Pretty sure pop's had a Shimano as well. Uncle's for sure.
    But for whatever reason. They stick to Diawa. Maybe it's a saltwater thing??? As they fish /fished a lot more saltwater. But grandpops would sit there at a pond/lake/Roger/inlet and just catch big Catfish and stripper on the Diawa like it had fish magnets or something...
    Great video as usual sir, eventhough I'm pretty late to the party
