Shimano Metanium VS Daiwa Alphas SV TW - [Shallow Spool]

Today, we take a close look at the new Shimano Metanium Shallow Edition versus Daiwa Alphas SV TW 800S.
Both new recently released models with very similar features. You can use both of these reels for finesse and heavier fishing due to the new shallow spools in each model. Now, which one is the best for your money? I answer that question today.

Exactly the video I need! You are the best!

[@FishiganMilligan]

I just ordered from them and got the SLX BFS...can't wait for it to get here!

[@co-polyLINE]

Love those color schemes...for me in the looks i like reels that have visors on it...but men!!! That t wing system looks pretty bad ass

[@alexdashevsky2180]

I like your video. I think tws system needs improvement because a lot of play. TWS is loose on my Alphas 800s . Purchase from Digitaka. Digitaka great site but Daiwa needs quality improvement. This is my opinion.

[@rainbosprinkles6548]

The Alphas, the zillion sv tws can do finesse extremely well along with all normal Weighted lures. I have this metanium and the 20 version. Theyre great but it takes both of them to cover what the zillion can do. My choice, Zillion. Is that an option?

[@user-nx8vp5sy5d]

Metanium rrp in aus is $719, the alphas is $399. Weird comparison

[@charlesgurnea2004]

I have the sv tw 1000 I love it cast a mile also have the mentaniam but have problems backlash on all my Shimano two brakes on and new jdm version is giving me hell don't know why

[@charlesgurnea2004]

I have both not the shollow but the deep spool love them both I just wish the mentaniam would make deeper spool with top water I got to careful or I'll lose all my line but I've got to say the bantam has the both beat the 22 love bought 3

[@danaerickson1777]

I have to say, I’m partial to shimano for sure…….. that said, if it comes down to a budget issue I would definitely consider the diawa as I’m sure they will both get the job done well. Great review brother 👍

[@marcuskerns2740]

Digai wanna ordered Shimano reels from Digitaka but they never have Tantium reels in stock

[@bobbydelong8577]

I have both of these reels and prefer the Daiwa all day long. The Metanium shallow is a good short distance reel nonetheless. Great video. Thanks!

[@joshdavis7288]

If you were going to cast 3/16oz to 3/8oz would you be better off with Curado BFS or Metanium Shallow Spool. Kind of a BFS + reel for 2.8 and 3.3 Keitechs. Curious to hear your thoughts.

[@RXAngler]

Shallow edition

[@joshdavis7288]

Thank you. Love your content.

[@ezzieywarlock8621]

The weights on metanium shallow spool less than daiwa because of its main gear which is durallium

[@timeintheoutdoors]

Nice job on the video... do either of these reels have a clicker drag? Thanks in advance to anyone who answers. Cheers, and tight lines!

[@RXAngler]

Daiwa

[@timeintheoutdoors]

@@RXAngler thank you! I had already ordered the Shimano hopping it would have one. Thanks again for the great video!

[@mattnguyen1672]

Just got the curado bfs and old 18 using your promo code

[@RXAngler]

Hell yea! Nice pick up 🙌

[@mattnguyen1672]

@@RXAngler just did a video on the curado

[@logicalrationalfishing7481]

You had any issues with the aluminum micro module gears? Lot of people were scared of the Shallow Edition for that reason.

[@RXAngler]

No

[@raymondjohnson6496]

I like 20 alphas air tw better
