fisherrw Posted March 7, 2016 Posted March 7, 2016 too bad there probably the best price out there. Quote
Dan_the_fisher Posted March 7, 2016 Posted March 7, 2016 You'll pay about 20 more on eBay, but at least you don't have to wait for it to be I stock Quote
robster80 Posted March 7, 2016 Author Posted March 7, 2016 is the new 16 metanium suposed to be a better reel?. Quote
Dan_the_fisher Posted March 7, 2016 Posted March 7, 2016 It sure does look sweet, looks like it's gonna go for $329 at jls. Quote

Dan_the_fisher Posted March 7, 2016 Posted March 7, 2016 Buy one and let us know how good they are ?? Quote
EllisJuan Posted March 7, 2016 Posted March 7, 2016 I absolutely love my '13 Metanium. I am putting serious consideration into sell my Chronarch CI4+ to pick up a '16 Metanium. Quote
Silas Posted March 12, 2016 Posted March 12, 2016 Like Ellis Juan, I sold the CHRONARCH C14 and bought 2 13 Metaniums. But got those 2 when prices a little lower. Can't see the need for a 16. The 13 Metaniums are a "do everything well" reel! I did pick up the 15 Aldebaran and it shines with light stuff. Quote

I actually ordered one last night and sold my beautiful Chronarch CI4+ today. I still would like to replace my Curado on my spinbait with another Met, but that little Curado always impresses me. 1 Quote
Silas Posted March 12, 2016 Posted March 12, 2016 Ellis, you are going to love the Conquest! I got the 15 Conquest 100HG and am really impressed with it. Like you I'm impressed with my little Curado 50E. I think I have it on a Dobyns 742DX and cast a 1/8 oz Bitsy Jig with a Zoom Jr Chunk. Perfect match and such "set it and forget it" reel. Quote
