FishinFlorida Its heavy but it is the smoothest best casting reel I've ever owned and I have a dozen shimano and daiwas if you want a lighter reel same performance I would go with the metanium DC. tight lines D.C.
Keep Fishing Forward thanks for your rapid reply. I live in japan and see em pretty cheap from time to time at fishing stores as it was introduced in 2017
Dab4Bass TV okay I was just curious cuz I'll throw smaller things the same settings as the big baits cuz I notice you can get better range on less braking power, I bet the mgl will still smash it though
Damn! I need a Metanium MGL! Yes, the DC sound is super cool, but if too loud, may be annoying. And the MGL looks much better. I have a Excense DC but the DC brake is not working anymore. Maybe I was too coarse on it. I don`t know. It was super easy and fun to cast. But, the numbers on the mgl convinced me .
Is this MGL the japan or american version? Ive heard the japan one has half of the line capacity which makes it a lot better for light weight lures and casts better. Like the american one is size 150 and the Japanese is 70.
What setting did you have the DC reel on? Fluro, Braid? Was the breaking on auto or did you have it turned to one of the numbers? DC reel is more complicated set up. so wondering if you had it set correctly.
Came upon this video when i saw that shimano has cut back on the DC reels quite a bit. I love my calcutta DC, but definitely curious about the infinity reels now that i have seen this...
so many things that could make the difference; Throwing force, the axle brake (the small knob) setting, are they both "just out of the package" or are they used? Are they being cast this distance before or is this the first time for both?
DC reel is the only reel where i can almost de spool my fishing line. Cast soo far I am scare of catching trees. I think the hardest part about DC is tuning it. It just require a different tuning to evenly set it right. Most DC beginner will tune it like a centrifugal or magnetic system which will not make the DC shine.
Killin the dope edit game! I wish Lew's made some digital controlled reels! I'd be all over them!!! But in this case i'd have to go with the DC reel cause of its boost sounds
I really liked this video. The only suggestion I would make is compare with a 1/2 and or 3/4 oz lure. As far as I know DC reels do not excel with lighter weights. Does the DC feel as smooth while reeling as the MGL? I'd also bet a Chronarch MGL casts a bit further than either Met. At least mine does. Subscribed.
I don't like DC reels. I like between 0 & 1 brake & between 1-2 on the thumb wheel on a good metanium mgl. My antares spools out with 65lb braid like a .223! Wish I could get them a bit cheaper..
You’re channel has the potential to be as good as Jon’s, you’re editing and filming are awesome! Also I’ve been looking for a video comparing both Met’s thanks for that!
i say if your fishing from shore the metanium mgl all the way, and leave the dc for people using a boat, they don't need to cast as far and if their out in the middle i don't have to hear the noise.
nice vid, everything you said is on point. I've got both. I think the DC is better wit 1/2oz and more. I use mine for traps & it'll really make that reel hummmm! mgl is a great worm/jig reel
It's comparing apple to orange. DC main purpose is to prevent backlashed without the need to thumb at all. Good for noobs and such risk of backlash and ruining fishing time.
In case anyone was wondering please don’t use this video as a reference! That is a used dc that could have been used for 2-3 years being put up against a metanium mgl that problem isn’t even a year old. When you say smoother that the most BS thing saying because they have the exact same gears and if you had the amount of time in the mgl as did the dc it would feel the same. Word of advice is compare reels that were one is brand new and the other one is used. Winner should be dc btw it does cast farther I don’t what you were thinking. The older the reel the less it preforms since if it’s meant for high performance.
What settings on the mgl in and out
should have done more cast with the dc to find out its optimal casting setting to be fair.
It's all about the sound !!! Great vid, like always, and awesome edit.
What brakes, line setting was the dc on? Was it on auto? It matters, bc those reels don't have the same controls.
gotta love the DC'S SWEET sound, my Antares DC makes me smile every cast. tight lines D.C.
How do you like the Antares? Isn't it pretty heavy?
FishinFlorida Its heavy but it is the smoothest best casting reel I've ever owned and I have a dozen shimano and daiwas if you want a lighter reel same performance I would go with the metanium DC. tight lines D.C.
I think in order to do a compare both reels must be on same rod and same setting with same lure weight and line ...this will be the most fair
The metanium dc is not the long cast dc reel. I believe the long cast is the dc5 found on the Antares dc and scorpion dc
Any chance you could do a comparison for Shimano Exsense DC XG.
Keep Fishing Forward understandable thanks for replying back. Any information you can give that you heard of it so far?

What were your brakes set at on the dc? Awesome video
Dab4Bass TV okay I was just curious cuz I'll throw smaller things the same settings as the big baits cuz I notice you can get better range on less braking power, I bet the mgl will still smash it though
What does mgl stand for
I would go with the DC for sound as well

Shimano war love it!!!💯💪👊LET'S GO!!!
Do this test with a Heddon super spook.
You are such a great editor! Great job man!
Thanks for sharing trying to grow my community! Found you on hooked up fishing! GOOD VID

Where did you get those reels at
Dab4Bass TV thank you

Nice video! Love the beginning!
Shimano DC giá bao nhiêu thế ah bạn
so many things that could make the difference;
Throwing force, the axle brake (the small knob) setting, are they both "just out of the package" or are they used? Are they being cast this distance before or is this the first time for both?
Indeed nice video, but something to take with you for future videos :). Keep up the good work!
Anybody else notice that there’s no audio?

What do you think of the Lews pro magnesium ..?
Dab4Bass TV well it’s shimano again with the curado dc
Nice video, thanks. What cameras and mic are you using? Sounds super clear.
Killin the dope edit game! I wish Lew's made some digital controlled reels! I'd be all over them!!! But in this case i'd have to go with the DC reel cause of its boost sounds
BassAndCoffee lews doesn’t have the rights to it haha and shins is more expensive but better quality
Beginning is so dope!
Why do u only have 2 thousand subs you should have as much as the googan squad
MGL bro! For the long cast if you are using swimming baits
I really liked this video. The only suggestion I would make is compare with a 1/2 and or 3/4 oz lure. As far as I know DC reels do not excel with lighter weights. Does the DC feel as smooth while reeling as the MGL?

great editing man.... oh and 13Fishing or nothing else.. lol.. Great video!
Nice loving the higher end reels by shimano. If only i had the money
Love my DC reel, wouldn't trade it for the world!
I don't like DC reels. I like between 0 & 1 brake & between 1-2 on the thumb wheel on a good metanium mgl. My antares spools out with 65lb braid like a .223! Wish I could get them a bit cheaper..
Good review this my friend"" how would the high end diawas cast to these"" like the Steez
thanks buddy for reply" whots the best reel for guys starting like me! in that they are easy to setup and less backlash problems!!
I thinks its funny we all would go with the dc because it make a cool sound.
Blooper are always funny lol. Best vid 👍🏼
You’re channel has the potential to be as good as Jon’s, you’re editing and filming are awesome! Also I’ve been looking for a video comparing both Met’s thanks for that!
Patrick Palepoi not in a million years
Thanks!
Great comparison!
I could flip and pitch with either one of those reels
I seen a video where the average was 160 feet and the longest was 192 feet on the dc. Although I think he used a 1/2 ounce lure.
i say if your fishing from shore the metanium mgl all the way, and leave the dc for people using a boat, they don't need to cast as far and if their out in the middle i don't have to hear the noise.
Great casting challenge I like them both very much and you got a great deal on the DC that's awesome! good job brother👍😎👊
Dannnnggggg love the sound of that reel
nice vid, everything you said is on point. I've got both. I think the DC is better wit 1/2oz and more. I use mine for traps & it'll really make that reel hummmm! mgl is a great worm/jig reel
I own the mgl I love it I honestly don’t know why I bought it over the dc, in your opinion if you could only choose one which one would you pick
Definitely the MGL for me
the music ?
Thank you very much
Best sounding reel!
Love the edits. Money is an issue. If it wasnt, those would be put to good use
When casting,i need distance, not screaming reel..it's just not make sense..
Agree..
I’m still buying the dc
why
Mình không hiểu cậu nói lắm nhưng hay 👍👍👍👍👍👍
video fishing tutorial is very cool, although I can not speak english but I subscribe your channel, regards know angler from kalimantan indonesia
Awesome video dude.
Badass vid !
Sweet video dude I gave you a great big thumbs up.
Your dc reel was set up on big swimbaits mode
I love you videos tho man
Answer is simple. Buy them both.
I’m never fished there is the fishing good there
his voice like boxing wrestling judge
I've got to get a counter. Great job man.
Yup and I need to know when off sure what my cast distance is so im sure cast pass the school and then come through
I gotta wait until that Antares DC M.D. comes in before messing with counters, lol.
Dope intro!
Stay tunggggg
Thumbs up buddy👍🏼
I prefer to fish backwards but stay tuned lol
the old bow and arrow or sling shot cast method lol weird but effective

Lets get it👍🎣🎣
That Murder Inc. S get it
Great battle! I was surprised. I thought they would do much more equally

Yeeet!
Cool

The Dc was poorly tuned
