How about as far as ease of casting for a beginner.hoohoorjoo wrote: ↑Thu Aug 01, 2019 6:29 pmBetter imo. Aluminum gear-side plate, lighter spool with more line capacity than the SV. It is also smaller and more comfortable to palm.chrisg_sdcf wrote: ↑Thu Aug 01, 2019 5:36 pmWould these new reels be considered "better" than the tatula sv or just different?

Re: New Tatula Elite Reel
Trying to get an idea of how these compare size wise to current daiwa reels. I have 2 steez as, are these roughly the same size?

Re: New Tatula Elite Reel
The Tatula SV TW is about as easy as you will find for a beginner with a bait cast reel. I haven't found the new Tatula Elite to be terribly difficult to control however.
They are small, compact, the size of the Tatula 100... here are a few comparison shots with the new Coastal.

Re: New Tatula Elite Reel
Thanks. My son really wants to start using a baitcast setup instead if his spinning (just because that's what I use). I'll probably pick up a tatula sv for him at some point.bronzefly wrote: ↑Fri Aug 02, 2019 6:29 amThe Tatula SV TW is about as easy as you will find for a beginner with a bait cast reel.

Re: New Tatula Elite Reel
These reels have the exact same form factor as the Steez SV TW and Steez A models. They feel identical in hand, except the steez is 1.5 oz lighter. That dial doesn't bother me, though.
Try not to let your mind wander. It is much too small to be outside unsupervised.

Re: New Tatula Elite Reel
You're welcome. I highly recommend the Tatula SV TW for beginners. It is one of the most user friendly reels on the market and is a lot of fun to use for skipping baits.chrisg_sdcf wrote: ↑Fri Aug 02, 2019 7:14 amThanks.

Re: New Tatula Elite Reel
How does the finish feel in hand on the new elites? Hopefully the paint job is a bit smoother/nicer to the touch
Re: New Tatula Elite Reel
that blue is growing on me....
looks like it might even match up to the winn blue swirl quite nice

Re: New Tatula Elite Reel
How long before this trickles up into a Zillion with a Zaion sideplate and drag star, free floating spool, nitride line guide, and a 9.1 ratio?
This is the way.

Can anyone confirm the gear material?

Re: New Tatula Elite Reel
Bronzefly,
Can you confirm that the spools from the Elites and new Coastal SV interchange with each other and the new Tatula 100 on the same platform? Does Tackle Trap plan to sell the spools as upgrade parts?
Thanks in advance.

Re: New Tatula Elite Reel
I've been passing it up for a while now but for $150 new it seems like a good choice. I mean I've been buying spools for almost that much lol.bronzefly wrote: ↑Fri Aug 02, 2019 8:27 amYou're welcome.

Re: New Tatula Elite Reel
Now that I've seen a few angles of that Coastal I'm sold on it...
Wonder if it'll see Aussie shores?

Re: New Tatula Elite Reel
Yes on all counts... ETA on the spools has yet to be determined, but they will be up on the site as soon as we get them.IlliniDawg01 wrote: ↑Sun Aug 04, 2019 8:56 amBronzefly,

I'm sure we could arrange to have one land on your shores Shoot me a PM if you're interested and we'll see what we can do.
