That's a sick logo. Love it!

I have been tempted by the bigger versions and their line capacity, but the palmability of the 100 has kept me there...just wait til you cast it...you'll want 5 more. That's the best way to sum up the reel... "wait til you cast it... you'll want 5 more". When I was trying to decide which one to go ...

I love the LTB series and my all around rod is the Carolina Rig rod (7'3", Medium-Heavy, Fast). This rod has a lot of backbone but a very nice tip!

I still haven't sent my LTB Tube rod in to be replaced but I'll be getting TBS71MF in the exchange. I love the LTB series and have to trade in three rods: the Top Water rod, the Walleye Series Jig Rod, and Tube. I'll be getting the Plastics rod (to be paired with Pflueger President spinning reel), t...

I actualy got the Core 100MgFV in the Fall and only took it out once (I think) and threw spinners for trout. I really want another 6:1 ratio reel!

My two favourite reviews are those of the Calcutta TE200DC and the Calais 200DC. I bought both reels because of those reviews (and many others). The reviews are incredible. Back to the topic. I have the Calais 200A and its DC counterpart as well as the Calcutta TE200GT and its DC counterpart. The DC...

Interested in reading a review of the MGX!

Thank you so much for the responses guys. I LOVE the Calais 100A, but fo that app, I would get the Core....maybe consider the 50 if it has enough line capacity. I've looked at the 50 so if I can get it at the same price I'll go with it! Not too sure as to with which rod I'd pair it but probably a 7'...

I'm looking into purchasing a new reel and have kinda narrowed down to two reels: the Core 100Mg and the Calais 100A.

I can get the Core 100Mg for just over $300 with taxes.

I'd most likely use it for fishing senkos. Which of the two is the better option?

the Calais DC is too fast for blades. Just not comfortable to me at 32 IPT unless you are talking very small willows. My 3 fave SB reels are currently the Scorp DC, Calais 200, and TD-Z 100M...although the 103H works just fine. I have a Calais DC and I love it for spinnerbaits for smallmouth! Where...

What about a Core 101Mg? I'm sure you could find one in your price range! The local tackle shop up here has them brand new for under $300 and that's how I got my 100MgFV. We're up in Canada! :lol: Also, I heard from a BPS staff member just before Christmas that the Core 100Mg/FV have been discontinu...

I don't know how you guys get all these super expensive reels and lots of them Instead of buying books, I use my school loan money for fishing equipment :lol: Just kidding! That sucks though how a lot of manufacturers are just coming out with junk! I actually like the Curado E series it's grown on ...

The Calcutta TE DC is definitely a pretty reel! I love mine! Congrats on the purchase! I hope to get the 250DC sometime in the future!

Such a beautiful family!

Impressive!

To with the Calais 200DC! Will launch those without any problems! Plus, the 7:1 ratio will help tame those big fish!
