robster80 Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 anyone pre-order or get their hands on one yet. ive spoken with one guy who said he loves it and casts better than the 13. i had already ordered a 13 Met i found for 277 and should be here in a day or so. tempted to wait for some more feedback on the MGL's before i use it Quote
Fishin' Fool Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 The good news is you know you can sell your 13 Metanium for over $300 now if you choose to. 1 Quote

robster80 Posted March 24, 2016 Author Posted March 24, 2016 Just now, HookdUP said: I just ordered one ... By sunday I will have spent some time fishing it . dude let us know about it this weekend. im all set to hit that order button if its indeed a better reel than the 13 Quote
HookdUP Posted March 24, 2016 Posted March 24, 2016 If I were you I'd get one while I could tbh. There's a slim chance it's not better .. I'd get another but I need a ocea jigger for a dry tortugas trip in July and I'm sending some reels to IAN so I'm not allowed to buy anymore Reels per my wife . (Recenty married sigh) . Quote

There are a couple guys on TT that already have them. They have all good things to say about them so far. I am going to wait for the reviews after the "new hotness" effect wears off. Plus I am a lefty so, I could not get one anyways. If it is better than the '13 I will get one without a doubt. The '13 met is the best low profile caster I have ever used. Quote
HookdUP Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 Mine will be here tomorrow ..by Tomorrow evening I will know for sure . Quote
LuckyHandsINC. Posted March 29, 2016 Posted March 29, 2016 Just ordered an XG today. Can't wait for it to get here. Will give my thoughts when it does. Quote
offsidewing Posted March 29, 2016 Posted March 29, 2016 I have a Met MGL XG flying over the Pacific as we speak. I'm interested to see how it measures up against the 2013 Metanium. Quote
Grantman83 Posted March 29, 2016 Posted March 29, 2016 Dare I ask what the differences are? The 13 metanium is a sweet reel Quote

robster80 Posted March 29, 2016 Author Posted March 29, 2016 i hope the differences are minor and not worth the upgrade so i wont have to sell off my 13 met that hasnt got here yet to order an mgl and wait another week or so. im ready to fish this thing! Quote
IAY Posted March 29, 2016 Posted March 29, 2016 Shallower spool, new breaking system, silent tune, and new paint job. Quote
