sarcazmo Posted October 27, 2016 Posted October 27, 2016 Does anyone have any first hand experience with this reel? Did a search and there's not much out there. Seems like a regular casitas with a lighter spool. Pretty interested in this, price seems right in line with a Curado 70. Would love to hear real world impressions Quote
j bab Posted October 27, 2016 Posted October 27, 2016 Seems like for me personally I'd get a 70 if the price is the same as an upgraded casitas... 1 Quote

Esp with the supposed lighter spool it supposedly offers. Might be good for a variety of different applications. Might just have to bite the bullet and order one. Quote
ghost Posted October 28, 2016 Posted October 28, 2016 The difference in price from those 2 reels is like $80. I have the Casitas and it's really a nice reel for the price. look on the auction site, you can get that reel for less than retail. Quote

Feel free to choose which one you want, I was just sharing what my choice would be Quote
ghost Posted October 28, 2016 Posted October 28, 2016 Oops, sorry my mistake. I didn't know there was another Casitas reel. Quote

Trying to lock down more details about the spool used in the casitas MGL. Wondering if it's a significant difference ala daiwa and their SV spool. If so, would definitely be a winner. Looks like a neat little reel, there are a few on that auction site I've been eyeing. Quote
