  • Well guys I made a huge change. Replaced all my rods and reels! Went from my awesome TWC rods and catmaxx reels to new slimecat poles and slimecat 6000 reels. Big change but definitely don’t regret it! In this video I do a first impression and a couple comparisons of the two. Thanks for watching!

    Got my buddy a xmh 8ft 6 spinning rod with a 7000 penn long cast. Was comparing it to my big cat fever casting rods the eyes are thinner and the rod is super stiff like no bend hardly in the tip. My mh and heavy bcf def seem softer tip and the material it feels like it can bend and bend without breaking but the slime cat is so stiff it feels like it.may snap which it prob won't. It's alot lighter than mine though and if it is durable it's a awesome rod. The eyes may be thinner since it's a spinning reel model vs my casting models with smaller thicker eyes

    • @trackercatfishing5851
      @trackercatfishing5851  3 года назад +1

      Yeah the eyes are made way thinner on the casting rods. That’s any brand though. Just helps with the performance since the reels are way different between casting/spinning. I have the 7’ 6” XMH and in my opinion it doesn’t feel stiff at all. I used TWC for a long time and like you see in the video they’re way more stiff than the slimecat rods. You should go watch the slimecat videos, he absolutely tortures his rods showing how strong they are and how far they can bend without breaking.

      After using TWC for years and these SlimeCats since the beginning of this year. Id say the backbone is about the same in both. The real big difference I see is the speed of the tip. The SlimeCat has a way faster (lighter) tip than the TWC. Both have their advantages and disadvantages.
