Not my cup of tea but it does look cool.

The new Conquest is what I'm most excited about.
Since the last version, updated to the current SVS infinity, MGL spool, and bearing behind the pin, the things I thought made the previous Conquest needing an update. So excited to see these.
Good to see they've also moved away from the large diameter (36 mm) spool to now a 33 mm diameter spool to help with the lower cast range.

Re: 2021 Shimano Reels
I wonder when these reels will be available
Re: 2021 Shimano Reels
What the hell, no Scorpion MGL 70/71. The SLX BFS looks like a re painted Scorpion BFS.
Re: 2021 Shimano Reels
After owning the Antares HG and AR and now conquest 100hg
I really love those reels however I still have three D7 and the Core 100MG
And a D5. My personal preference of them all is the Antares AR and Conquest 100HG. I don’t see how they could improve on perfection

Re: 2021 Shimano Reels
Typical time frame is March/April for the right handed reels and May/June for left.
The MGL spool is how. The new Conquest 100 & 200 will now be MGL enabled.
The first 300 size Scorpion. That should be interesting.

Re: 2021 Shimano Reels
$742 for the Antares DC... insane
Re: 2021 Shimano Reels
I'd expect to see that normalize to somewhere under $700. For some reason, Japanese manufacturer spec prices are rarely what you see in the retail outlets. Still very expensive.

Re: 2021 Shimano Reels
I had a feeling we'd see a new Scorpion DC after Jun recently had them at a very good price on Japan Tackle.
