2024 Shimano SLX DC Review and First Impressions | The Most Popular Casting Reel of All Time?

- In this video I will be testing the Shimano SLX DC Baitcasting reel for the first time! This might be the best fishing reel for long casts. This could be the best fishing reel for bass fishing. This fishing reel can also be bought on Amazon. I will take the reel to a local pond to do some bass fishing. I think the best way to do a reel review is to put the reel to the test by catching some fish! I am excited to make this video because this reel is the most popular and iconic fishing reel on the market today. I will share my thoughts about the reel at the end of the video!

Do you prefer the SLX DC over the Tatula 100 you did a video on 6 months ago. I’d really appreciate your opinion. Cory
i blew all my money on my shimano metanium dc i love it its amazing! the dcs are so sick!!
I’ve been throwing a Metanium dc for the last 2 years and it’s awesome! $500 is a lot though!
With the DC you don’t adjust the spool tension like a normal bait caster. You tighten it enough to keep the spool from clicking back and forth.
Interesting. Whatever I have it set to now seems to working really well. I am going to think about that the next time I fish with it though!
What does the 151 xg mean? Which one is best for beginners? Trying to buy but confused to sizing and models . Thanks
150 - right handed reel
151 - left handed reel
HG - 7.2:1 gear ratio
XG - 8.2:1 gear ratio
Use the link in the video description if you decide to buy online! It will help me out!
Also I would say the HG is the most versatile gear ratio, so it’s probably the best for a beginner
getting mine tomorrow
Nice! It should treat you really well!
do you recommend a 6’6 rod or 7 ft rod for the slx dc, also 1 or 2 piece for the rod? i fish from the bank
Personally I’d go with a 7 ft one piece
What’s the difference between 150 and 151 and what’s the difference between hg and xg
150 - right handed reel
151 - left handed reel
HG - 7.2:1 gear ratio
XG - 8.2:1 gear ratio

Perfect video just got one
Thank you! Have you gotten the chance to go fishing with it yet?
@@thesouthwes not yet comes in August I’ll update ya!
@@thesouthwes came in today took the kayak out caught about 6 bass! Idk what’s more satisfying the ziiiiing noise or catching the fish
what's the difference in the ratios?
They are how many times your spool rotates per full turn of the handle. So the lower numbers are slower speed reels
I was just at that pond, got nothing 😭😂
