Re: Smoothest gear grease.

I use Maxima. It stays put , heat won't make it run. Most motorcycle shops or speed shops carry it.

70 MGL 105 yds of 10lb line and 4 break pins
150 MGL 120 yds of 10lb line and 6 break pins

Weight is very close. What other differences are there?
I'd like to know where the $30 difference is too...

So are these rocking aluminum gears? If so I would rather have the 70MGL... makes it very confusing...
They didn't saying anything about aluminum gears.

I couldn't stand the ergonomics of the thumbar on the k. This thumbar looks more like a metanium , thank god.

Re: Tatula limited release date?

Feeling more rigid was meh ,imo. I change all of my spool bearings and use tsi 321,probably why I didn't see any difference in casting distance. Either way ,I can agree to disagree. Take care Gary ,I hope to see y'all at the shop in the fall. Gonna try to get up there and wet a line... ;)

Re: Tatula limited release date?

I understand it's not going anywhere. But , they could at least change it up mechanically. I guess that's what I was trying to say. Like the elite , I couldn't tell no difference in performance from the ct or the 100 , other than my wallet was about $100 lighter over a ct or 100 purchase.

Re: Tatula limited release date?

I'm a daiwa fan 100% , that's all I fish. But ,daiwa and the tatula is like the c-vid and the main stream media...they just can't let it go. At least throw a free floating spool in it.

No plastic bodies on reels greater than $60 please. Make it a higher end compact aluminum frame 70 reel to slot between the curado 70 and Met
ditto. Chornarch mgl was the worst $300 I ever spent.

Re: Blown up Curado K.

Hopefully they do away with that crappy thumb bar on the next curado. It's the only reason I sold the ones I had. Glad to see they kept standard thumb bar on new curado 70 , might give one of those a whirl.
