    I just got this in the mail and used it this past weekend inshore fishing. Spool it up with 10 lb Braid and you'll see even better performance. I had the brakes set as low as it would go and it never rat nested. Easily the best baitcaster I have ever thrown. For $200 you cant beat it.

    I imported a Scorpion MGL spool from Japan and replaced the spool in my 200K. Made it a much better casting reel. The only reason I'd prefer the MGL 150 over a Scorpion MGL would be because of the weight difference. It's only an ounce more then my hypermag.

    • @yajmeneu
      @yajmeneu Год назад

      Start with how ReelTest did it, max everything out and dail down. 1/2 oz Crankbait can still cast with max brakes and barely wiggle spool tension(important).
      Everyone casts different, ex. - my brother in-law's settings I have to dail down just to cast as far on his same reel/rod bc he's taller/stronger. Him casting on my settings, he'll back lash constantly. Just remember wind conditions affect baitcasters of any price a lot. General rule, High Winds = High Brakes
      Brand matters too, Daiwa SV TW 103-70 is a match to these Curado MGL 150-70. Daiwa are much more user friendly though (zero dailing system, no internal brakes to adjust, ect.) Daiwa SV TW are automatic cars, Shimano Curado MGL are manual cars.

    This video is by far not a good reel comparison as throwing a half ounce plug on the "proper rod" makes a big difference in the trajectory speed in which the line comes off the spool. That Expride being thrown with the 150 is a far better rod compared to the one used for the 200K. The Expride is going to engage the spool in a totally different manner than the lesser of rod which is a shimano conversion...not a fair comparison by no means, and in no way am I bashing this review bc I believe @THEREELTEST typically does a more in depth and far more informative breakdown of reels compared to most.

      Ambos lanzan bien ese tipo de señuelo, la diferencia es que el 70/71 está hecho para pesca liviana. El 150/151 por la capacidad, está hecho para peces más grandes (dourado, trairoes, tucunare, cachorra, etc). Con el 70/71 también, pero la capacidad de línea no sería suficiente.
