Super User Catt Posted January 27, 2021 Super User Posted January 27, 2021 I am looking at a Curado 70 MGL K real hard ? Quote
Super User ATA Posted January 27, 2021 Super User Posted January 27, 2021 For me if I have to choose one of my reels. it will be Anteras DC, you can cast light weight or heavy weight lures with it, light weight I mean as light as weightless Senko and you can cast it a mile. but since that reel little insanely expensive I would go with Metanium DC or Metanium 20 MGL.

Super User FishTank Posted January 27, 2021 Super User Posted January 27, 2021 Antares 70A. One of the finest reels I have ever used. It is a work of art but its pretty much flawless in every way. If I could afford it, I would have a couple more. My only gripe is fishing it in cold weather> It's like holding an ice cube. Quote
Super User Bankbeater Posted January 28, 2021 Super User Posted January 28, 2021 Probably a SLX 150 or a Curado K. I was looking at them around Thanksgiving, and decided to go with Daiwa. Been thinking about them ever since. Quote
Chris Carey Posted January 28, 2021 Posted January 28, 2021 I have the 2020 met, it’s a fantastic reel. Very smooth and incredibly light. The reel I have my eye on right now is the met dc. Reason being I like throwing chatterbaits on dc and I’m looking to upgrade from my curado. Quote
Bandersnatch Posted January 28, 2021 Posted January 28, 2021 Aldebaran mgl with a 95mm handle ? Quote

SproDD79 Posted January 28, 2021 Posted January 28, 2021 The 20 Metanium would be my pick, I do like the Bantam as well. Quote
NJBasstard Posted January 28, 2021 Posted January 28, 2021 The frame on the 50 platform is still a favorite of mine.. Curado 50E, Chronarch 50E, Scorpion XT1000, Core 50 and Aldebaran 50. Of the current Shimano lineup I'd say the Bantam is a must have. Can't comment on the 2020 Met since I haven't used one yet. Quote

A-Jay You haven't lived until you've run to the canyon for 2 hours, put the spread out just before day break and get that thing spooled 15 minutes later in 20 seconds by a big eye. Wicked indeed...
