Many options to choose from when fishing 3/8oz to 1oz... I am a big fan of the Exsence DC and i would pick that reel to handle 3/8oz-1oz any day. The reel is just more stout compared to the Metanium's. However, the 15 Met DC or MGL will give you the line capacity you need to bomb 1oz lures. The 24 Met DC would work, but i believe the line capacity in the 15 DC and Met B will work better when talking about Metaniums.
Thanks for the on the water casting with both reels and peak at the internals. Glad you had nice weather to get out. Really like my poison Adrena’s have casting and spinning models along with a 7’2” 2pc MH Poison Adrena but have a Zillion on it🔥! Thanks for the video!
With all due respect because the video is Great...that older MetaniumDC is going to have some play..hense the extra sounds and feel. Given your testing shows the 2024 model casts at least as far if not more...that's a huge PLUS given the 2024's 70 size palmability. They feel amazing IN HAND - peace! 😎🤟 - 613BASS'N
DC reels rock I love my 2017 scorpion dc. they are great for newbs to bait casters, I do feel the metanium & Antares are for more advanced bait caster users.
Love my new metanium dc only issue I have with is how easy it dings up and scratches mine look like a 3 year old reel after two weeks of fishing
Oh boy! I keep my fishing gear in tip top shape. Reel cover always goes on if I’m not using the reel.
Would you choose the DC or MGL for more power fishing lures around 3/8 - 1oz.

Bantam is a workhorse
Replacing the pinion and main gear in the 9 year old metanium would eliminate the mechanical feel.
Thanks for the suggestion. Will need to try it!
how would u say the 2015 stacks up to the newer daiwa 21 zillion
Dude my poison adrena snapped in 2 yesterday. Right above the first guide. If 1 of my exprides breaks I'm switching to Loomis.
Oh man! Curious - how did it break?
Loomis is owned by Shimano bud 😭
@avocato2829 I know, warranty is better.

Thanks for watching! Agreed on the extra sounds and feel. Its the way its designed, not a flaw in the reel. Tight lines!
