    Showing off gears is basically Mall Ninja stuff, in the end, bringing more fish to the boat is more satisfactory, but having good gears is definitely beneficial, I have Stella, TP, Ultima, Glorious, Expride, TS destroyers.

    Sensitivity is snake oil trick, if something can't be scientifically defined, measured and quantified, you should be very skeptical, but there are a lot of people in fishing industry that don't have basic college physics 101 knowledge, so it makes sense a lot of people believe it, it's like HIFI industry, people believe using pure silver cable is better than pure copper cable, because it sounds more natural LOL>

    I almost feel like a rep for this company at this point but…I like my steez ct, met dc, zillion, bantam, and I love my bates hundo. That reel palms better than others and can do everything other throw large swim baits and it’s just because of the spool size. It feels old school and new school at the same time. I’d trade the met dc all day long for one. You should try one. Nice video as always.

  • @jimmypage279
    @jimmypage2799 күн бұрын

    My opinion for the met dc vs steez sv debate. Met DC: more refined, feels sturdier, smoother, and casts further in any condition. Steez sv less refined, in addition to feeling hollow I can feel the gears more and the reel just isn't as tight as the met dc. The performance isn't better, but is easier to dial w/o having to adjust spool tension knob. Steez sv also doesn't have over spool when you have the reel in free spool, the met dc occasionally does. Steez also casts with less effort but still feels choked. IMO Met DC wins this round quite easily especially once price is factored in.

    Good vid dude! But man, I've gotta disagree with you on the Steez 24 on some aspects. I find it so good, in fact, that I sold my Met DC to buy another one. I'm up to four purchased now and HAVE been buying them direct from Japan for basically $300 less than what the US market is selling them for, which is nuts; no clue why they're charging this. Anyway, it throws further than my Zillion21...SLP Works Zillion AND Steez reels which was the first thing i noticed out of the box. Against the Met DC they were both throwing far and basically the same distance which is cool, but I'm more into accurate shorter casts these days equating to more times into the water...increased odds...etc... I'm skipping with it just fine but you might have a point with the SV Boost spools not skipping as well since they're a little more open after startup. I completely disagree with you on how it handles wind. Even on big lakes here in Texas on WINDY days it was considerably superior for me over the Met DC with regard to handicapping either reel too much with the braking. The Steez 24 boost spool is a new spool design from Daiwa with regard to size and width, just wanted to mention. The braking dial on the Steez 24 though...horrid...just horrid! You are right though, nobody should pay $750 for a reel...so there's that for context. And I do mirror your sentiment in a prior video where you basically preach a Zillion 21 or Bantam 22 is as far as you should look from either camp; spot on with this. Now onto the new Tatula...I actually like the way it looks minus the graphics and "Tatula" flair they kill the reel with. My first thought with regard to the design was it looks like it'll be comfortable in hand, especially resting your thumb onto the spool.

    You make a great argument for the new Steez SV! I really do like it overall, I wasn't TRYING to sound like a hater. I'm a big fan of the Steez line of reels overall.. I have a bunch of the previous ones. I've just been a little more smitten with the MetDC.

    @@PunchFishing The new MetDC is a great reel...they basically took the Met20 and provided us substantially better, and CONSISTENT, wind performance...well more consistency period. it's just a matter of preference for me with overall reel design of the Met20, don't like the narrow and recessed MGL spool and high thumb bar, that I sold it off for the new Steez24 that I had to jump on with some great pricing out of japan. now the bantam 22 though....

    I get why they upped the price of the Steez SV. They want to take all your little left hard earned money in our current miserable economy. On that, I am guessing the older non boost SV spool maybe is why the old steez skips better ? Boy it seems that the Tatula SV may now kill the momentum of the Zillion SV for the price unless it's not so solid after using.. Thanks for the updates on the soft plastics and Met DC..! interesting..

    Well you can really skip with any reel. It's more of a skill that you hone over time with lots of practice. Some reels are definitely much more forgiving if you're not an experienced skipper.

I've used high end rods for a long time and then I tried finding 100 dollar rods with good sensitivity and brain I've had it it's time to go back to useing the high end stuff. Brian you are not going to get what you're looking for if you're not willing to spend the money on the high end stuff. Brian 4 more days and I'm getting my first ever schimino expride B rods. The technology that schimino is useing now is absolutely outstanding I've done so much homework on the way this company is building rod's and it's second to none. Thanks so much for spending the time to school me especially on the schimino equipment. Brian that poison adrena rod's is insane. Brian I saw a guy at icast holding that poison adrena rod with three fingers on the end of the rod waving it around just to show you how ridiculously light it is. Thanks for the video on the 7'3 expride B extra heavy Brian that's what they should name that rod the HAMMER. It's always a pleasure speaking to you and watching your videos I'll be watching your videos until I'm dead . Because I truly believe in this high end stuff. In my opinion I think you're just making it harder if you're not useing the high end stuff.

No issues and love it on a tatula rod. The last one, tatula 4000, just got it in the mail, with a bent bail wire. Debating on getting a stradic when i take it back to get it replaced. They are great reels, light, smooth but all that doesn't matter if they dont work or last.
