Di_ver_gent Posted August 15, 2020 Posted August 15, 2020 Which reel would suit the rod for its attended uses/all purpose bass fishing? Thnks Quote
DanielG Posted August 16, 2020 Posted August 16, 2020 I've got a Curado DC on a Dobyns champion 735c glass and love it. Just my opinion of course. Pretty exciting to catch a good sized bass on one. Don't know about all purpose. I fish a lot of hard baits. Quote
lunkerboss923 Posted August 16, 2020 Posted August 16, 2020 If you want to save a few bucks the Tatula 100 or 150 are both nice reels. I've got a 100 on my Fury 734c. I use the 734 as my jig and spinnerbait rod. Quote
Super User Jig Man Posted August 16, 2020 Super User Posted August 16, 2020 I got a DC for father’s day. I like it well enough that I bought a second one this week. Quote

Curado DC if casting for distance. This... Tatula SV if doing anything involve lighter finesse, shorter/medium distances and obviously it excels for skipping. I have both reels (and that rod) and the only knock on the Tatula is that it doesn't hold a lot of line. So for instance you are using heavier line (i.e 17 lb fluoro) to chuck chatterbaits long distances, you can run out of line after a few break-offs. The SV spool is great but does not have a lot of line capacity. 1 Quote
lunkerboss923 Posted September 1, 2020 Posted September 1, 2020 I broke down and got a Curado DC at lunch. I'm now broke, but it was worth it! Quote

kayaking_kev Posted September 2, 2020 Posted September 2, 2020 I have a SLX DC on my Champion XP 734c, I think the DC reels balance better with it because it is over a 5 oz rod, the Tatula SV might be a little light for it. Quote
ImThatGuy Posted September 2, 2020 Posted September 2, 2020 I just purchased a tatila elite. Will be dedicated for crank baits. 1 Quote
NathanDLTH Posted September 2, 2020 Posted September 2, 2020 Tatula SV, I have fished both and I am convinced the SV is the better platform. The only Shimano reel I have left is my Bantam MGL, it's a complete workhorse and my favorite frog reel. Smooth as butter. Quote
