  • I have a regular Shimano SLX and a Shimano SLX DC. I also have Shimano Curado DC and a normal Shimano Curado to test against each other and see is a Digital Chip Reel worth buy or is a normal reel just as good. Answers are found here.

      Without a doubt, the SLX DC XT (made in 70 spool size) is the budget DC reel to have. MGL III spool, I-DC5 controller, Micro Module Gear2, Hagane Body, metal drag star, 7 Bearings and X-Ship so the pinion gear is supported by bearings. OK in Saltwater which is where I personally use the reel. Of course maintenance is required when used in SW as it is with any reel. In-Shore SW Bassing is definitely elevated with this JDM reel.

    Woah! This game looks great, graphics are good and the main character is a bit of a goofball. What system are you playing this on Mark?

    I know I bought DC curado 200 size spool and I took it back certainly wasn't at all near how my 2 JDM scorpion DC's 2017 version are. I just bought JDM scorpion DC 2021

    The 200 size Curado has a larger/heavier spool so it won't cast as far as the 150 because of the inertia of the spool.

      Interesting. I'll research what the difference is. If its a lot I'll redone the match up between dc and norm

    Can you a casting distance test between spinning reels and baitcasting reels? Just use 2 idetical cheap spinning and casting rods(eg shimano fx series) and use 10lb braid or same diameter line for spinning and 30lb braid for baitcaster

    DC: stand for Digital Control not Digital Chip. it's actually on the Shimano website too.

    So I’m wondering if you have a scorpion DC because it has five adjustment points rather than four i’m wondering if there’s that much of a difference between those two

    Even with the benefits of a dc reel, do you find the sound annoying when fishing for several hours?

I use my 150slx DC more than my $600 Antarres and Brand new Metaninium Dc..im not saying they r better bcuz they cost more by no means just that the technology is a lot better in the higher end models so it's way less of a headache and u get a lot more out of the reel

    Dc is for lazy anglers that don't want to learn to train their thumbs. You lose casting distance and accuracy bigtime. You need your thumb trained to fish at a higher level. I want constant control and feedback from my bait while its in the air.

      you can still use your thumb if you have a dc and you still get the same amount of control and actually farther distance with the dc reel
