I have JDM Metanium reels. By far favorite reels to date.
Thanks for the info!
I have the JDM SLX DC XT, been great so far
I have the 100 and really like it. So smooth
Hello! Excellent review!
What is the material of the MAIN GEAR Metanium 23 HG?
The met 100 also has a different handle .
It is smaller. I bought one the other day to put on my Ultima.
Line capacity would be the same because 110 yards is the same as 100 meters.
Hello!
I have watched a lot of your videos, but still can not figure out which reel is most suitable for my type of fishing. I plan to use shallow crankbaits 6-7 grams, mostly lucky craft clutch SR and SSR and be able to cast them at least 30 meters. I fish only in small and medium size rivers full of logs and branches mostly chub from 1kg up to 2.5 kg. Often casts need to be prety far and precise, because chub is very cautios fish. I will use braided line PE #0.8 and rod aproximetly from 3-12 grams. As far my understanding goes, i dont need BFS reel for my purpose. I am loking at something like Metanium 22 shallow edition, daiwa 20 alphas SW TW, daiwa steez CT SW TW, maybe some DC reel like SLX DC XT......drag clicker would be nice, but looks like only steez have it.
Can you please give me some sugestions what to choose and not necessarily from models mentioned above.
Thanks!
Before I ever buy a reel I always check your channel. I’m looking to buy another reel. What is the newest baddest and best reel out or coming out asap?
Do you think you may have had influence on the deeper spooled version 2023met following your review of the 2020met where it was disqualified for casting off all of the line? These are the most thorough reviews we really appreciate. Thanks and keep it coming 💯 👌
Lmao. Who knew. I have 9 metanium DC’s. Just got a brand new one from Bass Pro. I wonder now what all I have. Such a great reel. I have a few of the new Alderbarens and live those also.
What size spool is in the JDM Metanium 16 MGL reel, and what type of gears?
I typically hold your views of Shimano reels ,close to me in my decisions on buying them. Having said that as far as metaniums i then purchased 2 metanium 13 silver and gray. and 1 i think its 2018 bright silver. Trying to understand which model's you said can swap spools. Thanks
The 2020 and newer Metaniums that use the MGL 3 spools.
Did you check to see if the new 100 also has brass gears. I’ve heard that the old ones had aluminum making this one more durable
Hi. Just want to point out why the difference in line capacity is because thats yards in usa. And meters in japan. Which is not the same length
I have the Metanium d c you see the 18 scorpion DC And the original essence DC out of all of them. I'd have to say I probably use the scorpion the most.
You are comparing two different measurement units, for Metanium 150 is in yard, while Metanium 2023 is in meter
JDM line capacity are in Meter and US one is in Yard. So US 150 size (110 yard) is same as JDM 70 size (100M ) so both 2020 JDM & USDM are identical.
And 2023 100 size Metanium 100 is 12-120m line capacity so 20% more line.
That means 20 Metanuim would be best for 10-12lb line for lighter presentation and 23 Metanium is best for 14-16lb FC lines which is more versatile & and heavier presentations.
I have Metanium 20, 22 Shallow Édition, 23. The 22 and 23 are smoother than 20.
Incorrect, the shallow spool does not fit the 100 and vice versa. I have both and can confirm.
@@philipfalco7304 correct the shallow spool is narrower and the 2020 Metanium spool is a hair wider.
None of these are interchangeable. This is how shimano gets ya :).
I really hope shimano doesn't dumb down the dc to a phone app, their dc already is a beast why bother with an app or Bluetooth???? They don't need to chase anyone as everyone else is chasing behind shimano as it is
Because what else can they do with fishing tech? It's at its limits weight wise and smoothness, all they can do now is try to improve the braking system's, and everyone is doing it, Daiwa has done it twice in their new DC reel, and the SS Air TW SV, KastKing's got two new braking systems for them, and Ark Gravity reels etc. Also, they could end up doing some great things with these apps and the computer tech they put into the reel. Currently, I love the idea of being able to see how far I'm casting on every throw, no more guessing, we can also go through our breaks and know exactly how far each setting will cast. Who knows though, one day we could see all kinds of tech not just relaying info about our casting, but maintenance problems like when a bearing isn't operating correctly or something, or when a fish bites the reel glows red or flashes, maybe we will see a system where the line, lure, and reel all relay digital information back to the fisherman, and your lure broadcasts sonar, showing the depth, fish, water temp ect. Things like this would really be useful for bank anglers, and all anglers alike.
I’ll. Take Met 2016 any day
Which Metanium casts longer, JDM Metanium or JDM Metanium 100? Would I have an advantage of the heavier 100 spool (spool + more line) vs regular one (70), let say my line is 10lb?
I think for 10lb braid the 70 and for 10lb fluro the 100/150. It’s a monster caster anyway. I was blown away by the curado 70 but when I first casted the metanium I lost my words. It was unbelievable!😂
I think its going to boil down to which reel has less grease in its bearings lol
The Daiwa app for the limit breaker is in Japanese only, at least for now. Not a problem for a fluent Japanese speaking person, I'm wondering how many will buy it and have no way to use the app.
I'm lost in the baitcast market these days, since learning about a JDM market. Too many reels between the two markets, no idea what i should buy, knowing there is no warranty on a JDM reel.
I buy from Japan. Don’t care about warranty,
but I also only buy Daiwa reels 😊
I don’t think that aluminum gear will last over time we experienced that with the dc already if you do get it try and find a brass gear set that will fit or just get the regular metanium just my personal opinion especially for a close to 500$ reel after tax
I would love to see the next Metanium have a drag clicker, but that is really about it. The newest Bantam and Metanium have impressed me, and I have about 70% Daiwa's, 30% Shimano's. I like the Zillion's ease of use, but don't like the plastic cover and feel the CoreSolid bodies are top notch for overall feel.
Drag clicker is really annoying on the water. That's 100% noise rather than joy.
@@chaoyang9080 Really? I have always enjoyed the feedback to know if you are gaining or losing on a fish. Hell all spinning reels have it.
One thing that US anglers need to be aware of is that the JDM reel line capacity with the nylon lines is that the standard diameters are much thinner than US nylon lines. So when using US line you will have less line capacity.
I realized that since I started buying Varivas lines. Much thinner diameter than U.S. lines.
@@philipfalco7304 It's because in Japan the fishing tackle association mandated specific diameters for most types of fishing line. So there is no underrated test line like in the US.
@@seatee4770 Thank's for the info. I wasn't aware of that.
Where is the freakin next chronarch! The 2017 chronarch is my personal favorite reel in my arsenal even ahead of my 2016 metanium
Id love to see a core solid ci4 chronarch but also I wouldnt be surprised if it gets discontinuted
love the 2020 metanium mgl but after 3 months i had it the gears got geary and the super extreme butter smoothness i had disappeared 😢
I've read a lot of reviews saying the same thing. With mine it's a little Geary and even when the drag is backed all the way off, there's still a few pounds of drag. It's still a hell of a reel though. My 22' shallow does not have the same bugs. I wonder if Shimano fixed the problems with the new 100.
The issue is the brass mm gears. The alu material is more sturdy, believe it or not.
I had the 21 Antares DC XG on release, smooth as hell initially but got geary after two months. Sold it and went for HG instead, same thing, geary feeling.
@@Neversettle0o damm yea and shimano says the brass is more stronger and smoother i guess not
@@Neversettle0o i have the 2016 metanium mgl and the dc and it’s still smooth after 6 years
that thing is rock solid the 2016 metanium mgl is my fav real of all time it’s a monster caster
I wont buy a reel unless it can hold at least 250 meters of the line i choose to use ,if you can cast all the line off your reel you obviously got the wrong reel . Thanks for clearing this up for peoples. 🙂👍
If you're fishing for Bass. or by that matter any freshwater species, what do you need 273 yards of line for???
I just hope the next generation of dc reels don’t have batteries. Lol.
Man that would be a step backwards
Shimano is Japanese, not Chinese. 😂
@@KatManDew931lol
I go fishing to not worry about my phone and get away from the daily tech crap... I hope they aren't stressing about making a reel with app connection. Just make a good reel, WITH BRASS GEARS, and give us the performance we deserve for the price tag... they do that and they will have a winner.
P.S. Metanium Shallow Edition is so good, love using it. It's a better version of an aldebaran 30/50 basically
Skips baits like a dream too
dont believe the propoganda about Shimano aluminum gears
