Fishing the Shimano Metanium MGL: Is It Worth It? (Review)

I talk to you about my opinion of the Shimano Metanium MGL. This reel retails for $419.99, the most expensive reel that I own. Is it worth the hefty price tag? I give you my opinion!

Shimano is GOAT!

[@FishinwithTate]

AGREED

[@dirty_863]

Agreed as well! Daiwa has been really slacking lately. I'm using all Chronarch MGLs and G models right now. This one is on my to get list though.

[@Joseph-StormWalker]

Shut up！Daiwa is GOAT！

[@estudioburguener]

Gracias amigo... acabo de comprar uno gracias a tu video.... saludos Pablo de Argentina

[@FishinwithTate]

De nada amigo

[@hunterbull7804]

Pairing one with my Kistler Helium. Can’t wait till it comes in!

[@FishinwithTate]

Sweet! Haven’t tried kistler rods before! One of the few

[@brandonsimpson3809]

Best metaphor ever. Don’t know if you convinced me to pay that much for a reel or not... but by golly it sounds like a reel-y good one

[@FishinwithTate]

Some people like jelly, you do you!

[@leepao6302]

My favorite setup is the Shimano 19 Anteras with the Shimano/G Loomis Conquest

[@FishinwithTate]

Der Lee I bet that is awesome!

[@bassbumm8768]

I Love Shimano 16 Metainums I got 7

[@Midwest..]

Will Metanuim MGL aftermarket Brass Gears also fit Metanuim DC, stock gears is made out of aluminum? 😎👍

[@FishinwithTate]

That is a great question, I did some research for you but couldn’t find much info. I would call shimano and see if they could give you an answer (sorry I know that’s not too helpful lol). Looks like the curado K’s have compatible gear to MGL tho

[@seangoff9578]

Thanks for the video man. Just subscribed.

[@FishinwithTate]

Sean Goff thanks for watching my friend! Appreciate it!

[@codybrookehanson2346]

You said Toys R' US... Now I'm sad. That's like Cabela's going out of business for adults.

[@b.l4365]

Is this reel still worth buying now? For half the price now of what it used to be?

[@splixed_8481]

yea definitely it will outcast slx curados chronarchs and even similair distance to Antares
