“I pay money for a pretty noise” that’s the same thing I did brother.

Worth it. 😂

Everyone thinks that the DC reels are made not to backlash and that’s not how they are made, after you get them tuned in they won’t backlash but you have to tune them up to you! I absolutely love mine and it’s a Shimano one of best reel manufacturers in the world

Bought mine last week and this is a fact! My curado backlashes but much different then a normal baitcaster. The backlash I minimal and typically it’s my fault. It is very forgiving. When I cast to hard some times or let go too early I get much less backlash then I should have. Also today I made a cast and my lure got caught in grass behind me. A normal baircastwr would have been done. It took me around one minute to get it out. Not to mention it’s just very smooth. Overall I love my curado.

Dude, don’t let little stuff bother you my friend. You are outside fishing! God granted you another day. Have fun and God bless. Very nice new reel

If you haven't already checkout "reel test" video on KZread he reviews all kinds of reels but he have over 4 that will show you properly how to dial in all DC reels. Once you dial it in correctly you shouldn't have any issue with not backlashing I know I don't with my DC's.. but I will tell you this tho is you happen to lube them up before you use it, if you think line shoots out from straight outta box use, wait till you lube it before you use it man line shoots outta that thing as if you put speed spool bearings in it.. I wouldn't suggest using any speed spool bearings on any DC reel it will take away the butter smoothness on retrieving and you will hear the grinding of the gears over the DC sound. I saw reel test upgrade a DC reel with speed spool bearings. Again don't do it..

Yep just got mine as well. XG. Love it. But i will say. The SLX MGL70 is smooth as butter and casts a country mile too.

Just got it yesterday the dc it's amazing I love it. Academy didn't have it when I ordered the normal slx and got me the dc for the same price somehow. Happy father's day to me

I am! And hardly any back lashing now lol

i would've downsized hook and bait after losing that many.

The sadness in his voice when he said no fishing 🥹

Enjoyed the video. The only thing that I noticed on the fish you lost was that it looked like your hook sets could have been harder but I wasn't holding the rod. RE: the rat's nest, my Diawa's aren't suppose to either but I still feather the reel just to be sure.

Not sure if you meant to say that but the reel you got looks like its the xg which is an 8.2 gear ratio. the 6.3 would be the standard slx dc 70

Switch to an EWG hook.

Omg dude how that is possible ? Hopefully will be great soon

The backlash was not the reels fault

I liked the video but you complain how you lose fish, but you reel them in to fast.

Well i guess i should just stick to my spinning reel. Bought slx dc yesterday. I haven't been able to cast it once. Backlash city right out of the gate every time.

Its better to use monofilament...
