    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!

    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 3 роки тому +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

  • @randallbracewell9226
    @randallbracewell9226 2 роки тому +1

    What gear ratio do you recommend for the large swim baits? What is your Tranx/Lux combo setup? Ratio and Rod length? Thanks

  • @robbuchanan8006
    @robbuchanan8006 3 роки тому +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

  • @andyluksetich6981

  • @nickfountain8420
    @nickfountain8420 3 роки тому +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 Рік тому +1

  • @viperonfire2006
    @viperonfire2006 2 роки тому +1

    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

    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...

    You can always use electrical tape to cover up that red tension knob🤣. Just got my 1sr K yesterday really looking forward to using it now. Agree on the Curado DC, then the SLX DC. 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.

    Love the video 👊 Curado K is my number 1, 2 is SLX MGL, 3 is Curado MGL (IMO the SLX MGL casts amazing for a cheaper price), and then either the SLX XT or DC.

    when you use soft plastic what is better braid or floro

      Braid if your fishing in grass and around structure or cover, fluorocarbon leader if its clear water

      I agree with Anthony. I fish super clear water and have had no problem using braid to leader. I also throw straight FC a lot.
