NEW SLX XT A!!! The LAZIEST Shimano Reel Ever???

[@toadmarz]

Thanks for explaining silent tune, good stuff!

[@davidrauschenbach6871]

Thanks for the look at the new XT, not enough changes imo. Have a great weekend!

[@HessuAndersen]

About the spool weight; its looks like the new spool has four holes in center. In old spool is maybe six?

[@crosscountrybankangler]

I think the new finish on the XT is a bit nicer looking. Any plans on reviewing one of the new pflueger president baitcasters?

[@THEREELTEST]

I plan on testing one of the new ones, just dont know when

[@rolandburket1262]

I own the older model and its a great reel for the price. Just spend a little more and get the curado mgl its much smoother

[@americanstriper8666]

I have the SLX XT, too. I just got the Curado MGL 150 recently, but haven't fished with it yet.

[@nyariwak]

is the new slx (mgl) 2024 71 hg worth it? planning on getting it

[@kjb41]

looks wise the new one is nicer, performace wise they are nearly identical. If you find them for the same price you can't go wrong. I'm going to pick up a few of the newer ones.

Review Shimano solara bfs rod

[@THEREELTEST]

never heard of it

[@vernervanschalkwyk2280]

Would you buy this reel instead of the Piscifun carbon xcs? I bought that reel after your test on it and LOVE that reel.

[@ButcherisFalse]

because Piscifun is NOT a SHIMANO clown..lol

[@THEREELTEST]

yes, but if I had only $45 Id take the Carbon XCS over anything else

[@vernervanschalkwyk2280]

@@ButcherisFalse I own 3 Shimano's clown but you clearly have not seen or used the Piscifun...lol

[@reellifewithcinco7858]

I found 3 xt’s on Mercari for less than $180, and started tournament fishing with them part time, I love these reels!

[@jae-gw6tl]

Those mercari deals are legit?? I always thought it was just too good to be true and left it alone...

[@reellifewithcinco7858]

@@jae-gw6tl yeah, I’ve also got 2 Curado dc’s one needed a main gear but he warned me, and got that one dirt cheap, ordered the gear from shimano and it’s been working perfectly

[@thesonorandesertangler]

They should have put an MGL 3 spool in it.

[@THEREELTEST]

They did, and called it the SLX 70

[@thesonorandesertangler]

@@THEREELTEST It would be nice to have a 150 size MGL spool option that's not $200+. I just think they missed the mark with this upgrade.

[@Jakester_33]

Its like what they say, if it ain't broke don't fix it.. especially if you give it in the same price..

[@THEREELTEST]

they could have added the 6 arm brake hub for basically no cost to them

[@naufal3625]

can you try too review seasir mansory next

[@THEREELTEST]

The Mansory doesnt look very interesting

[@Alex6636]

Looks like pretty same as the previous one

[@vernervanschalkwyk2280]

I like the new one more.

[@alex4given808]

Great video! I like shimano and daiwa, but Them 2 Chinese brands bought me out. Am sold! May Jesus Christ bless everyone.

[@curvingphoenix]

Any idea when we’re getting a new scorpion mgl? It’s been a long time since

[@officialWWM]

The blue spool is pointless once you put line on it 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@patmanruls]

I agree, I like the blue better

[@kevinlavery6194]

This is the reel that I recommend to everyone. Agree that it's a lazy upgrade, but it's still the same price. I'm going to keep recommending it! Best bang for the buck. Oh, i like the looks of the old one better, but that wouldn't effect my buying decision.

[@MrRednexus]

I disagree, if you're getting a reel just save your money for Curado DC, or if you want to splurge get an Antares DC. I made the mistake of buying a cheaper reel and spent hundreds trying to get the best.

[@kevinlavery6194]

@@MrRednexus I said everyone, but I don't really mean everyone. I have several Curados, and I agree they're better. I fish with a lot of guys throwing ugly stick combos from Walmart. They're not going to spend $200 on a reel, but I may get them convinced that $130 is worth the splurge. Especially if they wait for a sale, this reel is closer to $100. You're not wrong though. If you have the money go Curado.

[@nickwilson7730]

I hate graffiti on a reel I really do

[@josephdavison1979]

I have 3 of them and all of them feel off and don't cast like it did new i have 5 concept a2 and 4 daiwa tatula all older than the shmonio slx l have and my 13 and daiwa are still out casting the slx all day long sorry shmonio boys

[@THEREELTEST]

then you woke up

[@Chris-fh8uh]

Cheap low end stuff

You just want to be different I see.
