I would agree with 99% of what your saying only thing I find is the brake settings on the DC is geared for beginners. 1 for light stuff no wind 2 braid and fluro 3 mono mild wind 4 anything in high winds... pretty dummy proof.
I have 2 SLX DC's and I love them! I cant imagine a reel getting any more smooth. I am looking into getting the Curado K ive heard really good things about it and its pretty much the same price point. Oh and the sound is definitely worth the extra 90 dollars 💯
I like my DC because I dont have to mess with the brakes very much.. change lures and dont have to worry about setting anything for the weight change.. after months of use I think I birds nest mine like twice because I did poor casting and hit the water too soon.. its great especially in windy days too..
Exactly if you’re right handed you reel with your left and hold the rod with your right. Baitcaster or spinning. Never understood right hand reel unless you’re left handed.
The reason I use right hand casting reels, and spinners on the left is simple. Years back options were not available. Spinning reels had handle on left, and casters on right for majority. That's how I learned and it is still more comfortable to me. No right or wrong in fishing unless you aren't catching fish lol.
I’m currently Savin up for the slx dc with a st criox bass x rod. I’m only have 20$ so far😂 but I hope I get money during christmas. I’m running out of ways to make money lol
I love my DC, for me it was worth the $$ to hear that whine. But Shimano quality is always solid. My only issue with them is those side plates are so sensitive to the spool tension. If you open the side plate, make sure you wind the spool tension way down before you snap it back into place. If you don't you might have problems locking the plate (and that sucks when you hook a fish and the side plate pops open and your spool falls on the floor or into the water....
on dc reels just set your reel to minimizes side to side play and set the number on 2 for braid and don’t change it no matter what bait your using i have a slx dc and curado dc got both basically the same time i fish the slx dc more the slx dc and curado dc both palm for more extremily well and i have average size hands
Happy to see this video. I have a Mach2, Revo SX and an SLX. As of right now the SLX is my hands down favorite. I’ve been thinking of getting the DC mainly for windy days thinking it will help with over spooling. Strange that it seems like my SLX only over spools on my 6’10” rod. Thanks for the video tho, I’m leaning towards trying it out.
I just had a Shimano curado dc hooked up to a favorite phantom fly out of my truck on the highway and get trashed. Well the reel is. The rod made it with just a little bit of road rash on the trigger. I hadn't even got a chance to use it yet.
If you want my opinion on the favorite phantom rod. It'll held up to the incident. With the sock with tip protector. Although, without using it yet. I have a concern about the tip. It seems to be a generic metal tip. No guide insert. Like the rest. I'll have a update once I get to use it.
I wanted the DC so bad! I ended up only getting the SLX as I didn't have the extra money at the time. I will have a DC soon though. Been fishing it for a little bit, but honestly, I'm getting same distance from my Lews American Hero 🤔🙋♂️? Surely I'm doing something wrong
In my opinion after using all 3 models, the xt is definitely worth the extra $30, but the dc isn’t really worth it unless you either are beginning to skip, or you have the money and like the sound. I need to try the new slx mgl though, for $150 it looks awesome
I have the SLX XT I love it with my Convergence rod. I don't like the ones that you have to flip open to adjust i find it wears out faster. Shimano and Diawa have the best reels in the market
Lol where was this video two weeks ago when I was trying to make this decision. I ended up going with the SLX so I could get another rod as well, and I can say I'm not sad I made that call the SLX is great! On both my Lews and Shimano I only set the spool tension to where it doesn't shake side to side most of the time anyway. I just adjust the magnetic break for different weight lures and rarely backlash. So I couldn't bring myself to spend the extra money for the reel only.
Great review for the money slx dc is good I fish saltwater have dunked it twice rinsed on the water and still banging and I have some high end reels but that is my go too
I hope to own a shimano reel myself one day! Awesome video as always!keep up the great work! Also if your shimano slx reel needs some love I'm more than happy to give it the love that it needs 🤣
So my SLX is on my topwater rod, which is a Duckett Silverado, 7'3" Medium Heavy. My SLX DC is on my crankbait rod: Okuma Guide Select 7'6" Medium Heavy Slow Action.
O agree on the SLX being a reel hard to beat at that price point. I think if your going to do the DC dont go SLX DC because that jump is not worth it. Pay the extra $150 and jump to the carrado dc . It's a much nicer reel over all and you really see a jump in quality and performance. Just my opinion . Hope all is well and have been enjoying the content.
I like the click knobs as well. As my first baitcaster, I really like the dc. Like you said, right out of the box, it was really good, very forgiving. I wanted one that wouldn't piss me off and hate baitcasters forever.
Shimano Curado DC 150 on a st Croix tournament legend bass my go too... 350$ for the reel in Canada .... amazing product but fucking expensive. DC’s are super convenient I definitely prefer
I have all 3 and love all 3 if i have the money id get another dc but just the slx is like you said the best $99 reel on the market the xt the problem i keep having is the spool tension knob comes really loss and ya pretty much back lash
Im still using 2 quantum pulse as we speak one is quantum pulse full combo reel and rod and my other is on green uglystk gx2 that i leave on car so if i randomly want go fishing i can , i got them dailed in pretty good but i think i be picking up SLX for my next reel and getting new rod so brand to setup for 2021 trying figure rods should i try googan new rods green or gold or something else
I love my SLX DC and Scorpion DC. But I have a Daiwa CC80 that was my first baitcaster and it casts farther at times. Who knows, but you gotta love that DC sound.
I thought about the SLX DC but I read some reviews most of them favorable but they also did say that when that DC chip goes out you have to try to find another one and that might be difficult so I went with the Daiwa tatula SV TW 103 and it's basically a thumbless casting reel and no chip to deal with I do like the real the real comparison videos keep them coming if you look at the Daiwa tatula's against another brand
I have the slx I love it. Another great reel in the same price range is the daiwa fuego. Neither have given me any problems and I am very abusive to my gear. I fish 12 months a year in oregon for salmon and steelhead.
Mic sounds a lot better! Another great video! Love the honesty! I hunt through most of the winter but I'm thinking about trying a DC next spring. Maybe before then you will have reviewed a few others.
I use heavy braid on my baitcasters so I dont get birds nests.which means I use cranks on spinning rods with 12+ lb mono. If I get a SLX DC maybe i can finally cheat code and throw light cranks and other baits on a baitcasting rod without my line just loosening into a tangled mess.
lol not a typical mag brake. the control board powers up an electro magnet when needed to brake. also the settings on the dial. are not normal brake settings. 1 for long cast and perfect set up no wind 2 for braid and mono 3 for floro 4 for really windy conditions only 4 settings not 5 or 6 like you say. that's why dial isn't as easy to adjust. its a set it and for get it situation.
I just picked up my first SLX the A I am impressed with it backlashed a few times. i put the wrong line on it Debo suggested dropping the line weight and as I suspected he is right worked like a charm!
Man great vid and totally agree I started with the $40 black max and I still use 2 of them but I now have a $80 lews and its so much better its unreal man but had to start somewhere thanks man and keep it up!
I use DC and I can cast confidently even at brake-1, I only use it for casting heavy metal jigs / light shore jigging (18gr), but it is supposed to cast further. no mechanic brake applied. something wrong and I don't know what it is. line? rod? :( I cannot cast further than 60-70m tops.
What kind of line and rod do you have? Mine has 20lb braid on it and can cast 1/16 oz lures up to 1 oz lures a distance no problem with 3 of the 6 brake tabs on.
@@aaanglers Thanks for your reply, I use Tuf line 15lb. Rod is 2.13m / 7ft and loads the lures pretty well. 1/16oz ???? really how far!!!! and what rod and braid combination. I need to learn something about this reel and its capacity !!!!
It's definitely a great reel for the price the only problem I've had with it and this could totally be user error but on the screw on the real handle it got loose after about 3 months so usage maybe a little less and I took it out several times to screw it back in and after a while the screw lock stuff kind of scraped off and one day I was out in my yard practicing my cast and it just fell apart on me a lot of the internal pieces came out not too many not incredibly important ones but I got them ordered they should be arriving soon and I should be back in business but I am out about 20 bucks due to the screw
I love that sound too I will be pulling the trigger on the curado dc, and I don’t like the dial on the bottom either but shimano makes reel good reels I had other brands and my personal opinion that’s just what I like.
i have 4 slc dc reels i freakin love them man , i did pick up the standard slx yesterday just to see how big of a difference a dc is.. If its not that much of a difference no need to spend the extra 100. i will say though i have used almost every single brand of reel for the most part and nothing yet compares to an slx dc in that price point . yes there are more expensive dc reels but i just dont care to spend anything over around $200.
That’s funny you talk about having the left handed version being left handed, but I’m right handed and all my casters are left handed versions, I’m probably the only person that does that, but I don’t like to swap hands after my cast. That and I grew up only using spin casts, so it so weird for me to reel with my right hand.
After ive had my scorpion dc for 2 years and my slx dc for a year, the slx dc is absolute trash compared to the scorpion. The slx backlashes way more, breaking me off way more, frustrating me way more, and thus catching me leas fish. Ive caught three fish on the reel according to my stats and i have 280 on the scorpion dc. Sooooo scorpions ftw
The XT is where it's at. Probably the best overall slx and the 70 spool is compatible from the mgl if you want a more bfs setup XT also has a better break system than the normal slx
Have to agree. I already have a Curado DC and wanted to spend less on an extra reel. I went with the SLX XT for the more adjustable braking over the SLX. Not one bad thing to say about it. I'd happily buy another.
SLX DC? Or Nah?
I would agree with 99% of what your saying only thing I find is the brake settings on the DC is geared for beginners. 1 for light stuff no wind 2 braid and fluro 3 mono mild wind 4 anything in high winds... pretty dummy proof.

i got my slx dc today. first bait caster ever. only backlashed it 3 times and fished for about 2 hours. great reel
Yeah because the dc is for noobs
I picked up a shimano scorpion DC, I couldn't be happier.
Facts me too things a beast
Sick!
Yeah I have two scorpion DC reels in love with them
Yup I have the scorpion too. Absolutely love it.
I think all the reals are fire. All of them look dope and look like they will do pretty good out on the water.
I never got why people used right handed baitcasters but they used left handed spinning reels

I just bought that setup. I sold my xbox for it and brought lots of change to a coinmaster.

So how’d it go?

Ordered the SLX DC yesterday! DC stands for Digital Control, not Digital Chip. Awesome reel regardless 😉👍

I picked up the dc the other day can't wait to use it
I wanted the DC so bad! I ended up only getting the SLX as I didn't have the extra money at the time.
I will have a DC soon though.
Been fishing it for a little bit, but honestly, I'm getting same distance from my Lews American Hero 🤔🙋♂️?
Surely I'm doing something wrong
DC will cast further, but the SLX can cast far. Just mess with the settings a bit.
Only downside other than price is the fact that you have to switch back to a thumb control reel and re-train yourself, not that big of an issue.
In my opinion after using all 3 models, the xt is definitely worth the extra $30, but the dc isn’t really worth it unless you either are beginning to skip, or you have the money and like the sound. I need to try the new slx mgl though, for $150 it looks awesome

DC

I have been trying to decide between the SLX DC and the Curado. Thx for the video. Going Curado I think.
Good choice!
I never thought I'd start to hate that sound. No dc for me.
Got 3 SLX DC and 2 Curado DC. There is a difference. The Curado DC is smoother. Both are great.
You can literally find anything on Amazon these days. Thanks for keeping it real on these reels!
Im right handed but prefer a left handed reel

lol not a typical mag brake. the control board powers up an electro magnet when needed to brake.
also the settings on the dial. are not normal brake settings.
1 for long cast and perfect set up no wind
2 for braid and mono
3 for floro
4 for really windy conditions
only 4 settings not 5 or 6 like you say.
that's why dial isn't as easy to adjust.
its a set it and for get it situation.

I will say 15lb braid is pretty light for this reel. I was having issues a lot…..switched to 20lb mono. Could also do higher test braid

What are all the rods you have in the backround?
Does the drag click?
Yes
The reason you can not cast heavy baits is because it is a crank bait reel
Me: with a plastic baitcaster reel and the spool tensioner doesn't work. Do you only put braid on your reels?
Pretty much.
