Shimano Spool Weight List

Reels are the hottest topic for TackleTour. Everyone wants to know what the latest and greatest is and how they compare to the old guard. What's the best for light stuff, or what's your suggestion for heavy cover. Do we really need different retrieve ratios? It's all in here.

Shimano Spool Weight List

Post by Mdmel » Sun Apr 04, 2021 1:33 pm

Ok , sorry if this is posted before.

I made a list of the spool weights of certain popular baitcast models and will try to update for future reference.

Please correct me if I’m wrong but most of the data is collected from YouTube reviews ( bearings included )

14 Conquest 12CNQ1024 (with SVS unit) - 12.3 g
14 Conquest 100/101 - 13.5 g
15 Metanium Dc : 17.4 g
16 Aldebaran Bfs Xg : 7.7 g
16 Antares DC : 18.2 g
17 Curado K 200/201 : 16 g
17 Scorpion DC : 17.8 g
17 Exsence DC : 18.8 g
17 Calcutta Conquest Bfs : 7.9 g
18 Bantam MGL - 14.8 g
18 Aldebaran 30/31 MGL - 12.4 g
18 Curado DC : 20.7 g
18 Antares DC MD : 19 g
19 Antares : 13.16 g
19 Calcutta Conquest 200 : 19 g
19 Slx DC : 20.7 g
19 Scorpion MGL 150 : 14.3 g
20 Calcutta Conquest 100/101DC: 17 g
20 Metanium mgl: 14 g
21 Antares DC : 16.7 g
21 Scorpion DC : 17.9 g
21 Conquest 100 MGL3 : 13.45g
21 Conquest 200 : 16.55g
22 Exsence DC : 17.5g ( looks like casts farther then 21 antares dc but more prone to backlash)




?? OG Exsence DC - 17.2 g
?? OG Metanium MGL - 14.1 g

Thanks. I keep wishing for a large table with Shimano/Daiwa/abu reels and spool size/weight/capacity/compatability.

These are my personal measurements.
All with bearing if there is one behind the pin.

Aldebaran 30/31 MGL - 12.4 g
Curado K 200/201 - 16.0 g
14 Conquest 12CNQ1024 (with SVS unit) - 12.3 g
14 Conquest 100/101 - 13.5 g
Bantam MGL - 14.8 g
OG Exsence DC - 17.2 g
OG Metanium MGL - 14.1 g

i'm surprised about the weight of the spool of the new Conquest.
