    Wish I knew this was coming out before Christmas as I would have bought it over the Curado 200M. I wanted a true 200 sized reel that could hold a lot of line and had a decent drag rating for 5”-6” swimbaits and 2oz+ deep diving crankbaits and spoons, but couldn’t afford another older model Zillion HDTW 1520

      The zillion hdtw 1520 is a great reel, I’d grab another😂 But, like you stated I could probably get two other great reels for the same price!

    I wish shimano would put the old engetsu 100 color scheme on some other reels, too. That’s one of my favorite reels of all time…not only because it’s a beefed up curado 70 that’s perfect for frogging and higher octane, short range applications…but also because it’s just a beautiful reel. Paired up with a zodias (which I did while experimenting) it looks like a sci fi weapon. The engetsu/zodias pairing isn’t the highest end shimano combo but it’s just so perfect…

    Ordered this reel from Japan. It's replacing a Tatula 200hs. Ive owned the Scorpion and Curado MGL 150's and DC 150. The Curado 150 outcasts the DC without breaking a sweat.

    This looks very interesting. I’m spending some time with my 3 newest reels before I make a decision on any others. Zillion, SLX DC & an SLX DC XT… the Zillion is smooth as butter but the DC reels are consistently perfect on each and every cast.

    If this thing is targeting peacock bass, this should be a great swimbait reel. Much more drag and more bearings than the M.

    • @THEREELTEST

      @@THEREELTEST Yah but the scorpion is going to hold more 20lb line and have a higher drag rating so it’s a better swimbait reel or deep diving crank reel. They’re probably trying to go against the old but still in production Daiwa Zillion TWHD which has a 15lb drag rating also and is a true 200 sized reel as it holds a lot of 20lb line, and is built all aluminum and brass.

    I'm contemplating ordering one of these. I use a Curado 201M for my Pike fishing, only throw up to ~4oz, so works just fine. One thing I would like to change ob the Curado 200M, spool size.. Would like to have the same line capacity as my Daiwa TWS Coastal 200 as I like to fish with ~80lbs braided line. I see that the Scorpion has the same small spool as the Curado 201M unfortunately.. And that's the only downside I see on the Curado/Scorpion 200.
    The reason I use such high strength line is because I don't want the line to break if I have a real bad overrun, and we often get snagged on something over here, and then I need the line strength to retrieve my lure, so it isn't my fishing that demands that line, it is my lures thats the reason..
    This in turn then does that the line retrieve is changed noticably thru the retrieve.. Not a positive thing.
    Tomorrow I'm going to try some ~0,22-24mm/~50lbs line, hope it will work better in all the areas. If so, then a scorpion 200MD is in the foreseeable future.
    Don't want a 300 as it is heavier duty than I need.

    • @THEREELTEST
      @THEREELTEST  Рік тому

      Obviously they can make a multi disk drag stack that puts out 20+ drag but Shimano prioritize smoothness and consistency in their drags vs just big drag numbers that look good on paper. But the Alloy M is a huge bargain for what it gives you

I've used the 200 K and the 200 M for Swimbaits and I like them equally although slightly different. I was throwing 2 to almost 4 ounce baits and I couldn't recognize the difference between casting distance with the lighter spool, and think the K looks better.I like them because they're buttery smooth and hold up.
