Super User JustJames Posted December 24, 2016 Super User Posted December 24, 2016 Anyone got both reels can you take picture side by side, please? It is okay if compare to 50e as well. I went to local today, but they dont have CT in stock just regular tatula. Another question how the reel palm compare to Shimano? Thanks Quote
Super User iabass8 Posted December 24, 2016 Super User Posted December 24, 2016 in terms of size 50<70<CT I've got a 50 and a CT. The 50 is noticeably smaller than a CT but the 50 is pretty small. I polished a few internal spots on my CT and added 4 bearings/different knobs to the handle and a bearing to the level wind. It's ridiculously smooth. 2 Quote
Super User JustJames Posted December 24, 2016 Author Super User Posted December 24, 2016 Thanks. Yup the ct is a tad longer and wider than 50. Any chance to get a shot on palm side. thanks Quote
Super User fishnkamp Posted December 27, 2016 Super User Posted December 27, 2016 Why does it matter are you thinking of getting a new reel. I can say from experience the Tatula CT is a great reel. I own 1 Exceler, 4 Tatula Type Rs and 3 tatula CTs. They are so good I got rid of my Lews and Shimano Chronarchs. 1 Quote
Super User JustJames Posted December 27, 2016 Author Super User Posted December 27, 2016 Yeah, kind of wanna step in the dark side lol. I am thinking of another curado 70xg or tatula ct. Ill be using this reel for dock skipping. I think that mag brake on tatula might be good for this application. Quote
Super User fishnkamp Posted December 27, 2016 Super User Posted December 27, 2016 Once you get a CT you will want more of them. 1 Quote
Super User JustJames Posted December 27, 2016 Author Super User Posted December 27, 2016 I dont know about that. I like the smaller size of shimano 50e and 70. I used to have 100d and ct 50. It shows I prefer smaller size reel. The only reel I have beside shimano is helios which is about 100 size reel as well. Quote
Super User Big Bait Fishing Posted December 27, 2016 Super User Posted December 27, 2016 if i were you i'd get a curado 70 ( strange for me to even type this as i detest shimano ) , the tatula's feel very boxy and don't palm well in my opinion ( out of curiousity , i held all of the models at a bass show last month ) i really don't like the square front to them , they are like a rectangle , no taper the front . - the 70 feels a lot better in hand . 1 Quote
Super User fishnkamp Posted December 28, 2016 Super User Posted December 28, 2016 Big Bait Fishing when you say you held every model at a bass show last month did you put a Tatula CT on a rod and actually try to palm it? I kinda doubt it. Either that or you have TINY hands. Quote
