Can This $700 Reel Make You a Better Fisherman? (Japanese Digital Reel)

The legendary $700 digital/computerized casting reel from Japan is finally making a full cameo on the channel. While this isn't a traditional unboxing I still wanted to set aside some time on a slow day of fishing and review this tool giving ya'll my overall, unbiased opinion. I can't saying spending $700 on a fishing reel is ever justified but if I had to do it I would most likely choose this one again, specifically when fishing for big bass, chasing larger saltwater species, and heavy lure situations. Let me know what your thoughts are about this reel. Could you ever see yourself owning a reel with this much hype?

Final update: this little reel is the little engine that could kzfaq.infoUgkxSlytCJqozTF7EbdP4LWP-HUXf9WRDJ0e . It performed flawlessly and was easy to adjust drag in the moment while I was battling a 35lb bat ray behemoth. Mind you, this reel is spooled with only 25 lb braid and 25 mono topshot. It's paired with the kastking telescopic heavy power rod and the two work well together. This has now earned my respect and confidence when traveling and fishing. If you have ever hooked into large rays and sharks, you know they pull extremely hard and can run forever! This thing clamped down on the fish and was easy to adjust during the fight. It has a nice decently fast retrieve as well. Twice the fish went on mad runs and I was able to gain back line quickly to avoid spooling.

DC reels for the most part take the thumb education out of the equation. You can achieve the reels max distance with little to no drama.....but some reels can cast further but you gotta go way down in the brakes and know when to thumb (but you're teetering on the edge of blowing up....DC's manage that "edge" and will throw a curl of line up over the frame and still not over run....(You can cast further with some dc reels if you cast with the line exiting the top of the frame not thhe levelwind lol ) They're also very fun....just don't stick them next to a big magnet......

@raktv173 5 жыл бұрын

@Swimbait_fishing 5 жыл бұрын

If you want max distance with a reel you are gonna have to come off the breaks, DC or not. I have several dc reels and of course they cast farther with a educated thumb, with the possibility of blowing up

I have an older chronarch 201e6 I fish with 1 brake on and spool tension set to where the spool doesn’t move side to side and I can get amazing casting distance with something as light as a senko. I think the only reason I can successfully cast with that low of settings is becoming good with my surface iron reels 🤣

Before I say anything, I been subscribed to Jon b channel since he was jojobarz33 with only few thousand subs, which is a lot still compared to how many subs he has now which is just insane and amazing. I got into digital chip reels when I started watching Jon videos, back when I started high school in 2013. I always wanted one because of the sound and technology that goes into these reels. I finally got my first DC reel which was a this 2018 left hand Shimano Antares MD DC (Monster Drive Digital Chip) as gift to myself when I got back from basic training. Yeah I love left hand baitcasters. I had my reel for about a year now, it a beast is amazing. I love it so much but would never probably get another one since they are expensive af. Something about this reel is different and fabulous. Biggest bass I caught on this reel was a 8 and a quarter largemouth. XB is extreme bait (large baits), F is fluorocarbon, NM is nylon-monofilament line, and P is braided line. If you have the money get it. I understand it expensive. I started out with Shakespeare rods okay I know. But yeah it awesome if you want a DC reel. I would recommend. Now that I have this deployment coming up soon, for a year in two months, I going to miss fishing. Keep up the great work Jon. KFNS

First bro that reel is sick in every way I'm just getting into the dc reels here Australia I'm in Victoria to. The high country I fish Murray cod and we throw big top water lures I've the curado dc 150. I love because at night you don't have to watch out as much when the lure hits the water before I can stop it with my thumb as much! before a big blow out!! It's made it so much better to fish at night but it's not easy to get a dc reel. Australia and if you do there not cheep curado dc $450 here that's why I got one so far but some thing like yours that would cost me $1,300 then they up to $1,800. As or ways great job on making this vid to show us and you are like me a bit we like nice fishing gear will make catch more!!!! no but it helps a lot with the confidence side of things.

@sebastianstan5295 5 жыл бұрын

GoneFishingStories most people do it like that. Typically spinning reels are lefty and baitcasters are right handed, regardless of if the person fishing the reels is left or right handed

@DavidFluegge 5 жыл бұрын

Not sure if I can explain, I do the same thing. My right is dominant in fishing, I feel better casting over my right shoulder. My right hand controls the rod from the top and the line as it's going - but then I switch because my dominant fishing hand wants to reel. I say dominant because I am left handed but throw right handed, bat left, golf right. Not sure that helps, but I always figured that is how everyone that fishes with a right handed reel does it.

@DavidFluegge 5 жыл бұрын

Since I also fly fish, do you fish with a right handed reel? I use my right as my power hand but then when I land one and get it on the reel (not just stripping), I use my right to reel it in - do you not?

As someone who almost exclusively fly fishes,( will break out a gear rod on a slow day Pike fishing) it doesn't seem Soo unreasonable ( expensive yes, I personally don't own any reel more than 300 or any rod including fly rods over 500) however it has a purpose with the chip unlike allot of the 1000+ dollar fly reels that have an identical drag system to the 200 dollar reel where the bigger price tag comes down to minor fit and finish details. Just my 2c

😜 NOPE! I fish with some nice equipment but to be honest you can actually catch the same amount of fish with cheap fishing equipment... anyone else agree?

@fireturtle7530 5 жыл бұрын

Depends on the situation. You'll catch just as many dinks, but using a cheap rod isn't going to amount to equal hook ups on quality fish. Skill plays a lot in that too more than anything though.
