Ive seen so many reviews of Shimano DC reels on the YouTube and read so many article about them, When I put all of them together, I found that Metanium Dc Have the greatest rating between all of them.
Ive used SLX, Metanum and Antares DC reels and I have different idea. First put the SLX aside which is the cheapest and yet very good reel but 90% of us would be agree that metonym and Antares will be finalist here, I am agree that metanum DC is very super cool reel in so many angel but it is not nearly good as Antares and I think all this reviews we have all over because Antares price is so high and so many of this people even didn't try the reel yet.
If you never use the Antares you need to know there is only two point that metonym would be negative for some anglers, but not for me, First price is almost twice as metanium,and the actual reel weight 6.7oz Vs 7.8oz Antares, And thats it.
Ive use them both for long time and I love them both, but if I had chance to get all of my reels and afford to change, I would change all to antennas Dc. I am casting T rig(weightless) against wind and it casting farther than metanium, or I am casting heavy lures much farther with it, it is not only casting distance, it is about the drag as well specially for SoCal anglers like myself that we dealing with heavy grass and heavy fishes.
anyways I don't want to make it long, I just want to say most of reviews out there done by anglers that never tried Antares, and once they do I am sure most of them will say thats the best shaman reel yet.
Thank You for reading and I would be happy to hear your feedback, especially if you are using both of them.
