Slick looking reel brother! I've been eyeing that pitch and flip elite too. Hope we get the chance to hang and talk tackle next year 👊
Appreciate you stopping by brother! I'd really enjoy that...let's make it happen! Hope all is well man! 👊💪
I just got the pitch and flip elite, it’s amazing! It casts pretty far and is smooth as butter. Best reel I’ve ever purchased.
Always putting out quality and down to Earth videos. Thanks TJ81!
Appreciate the comment Michael and thanks for watching! 👊💪
I have been a Shimano guy all my life but recently picked up a tat 100 and it is by far my new favorite reel for comfort and casting distance. Great video dude!
Thank you Warren!
*Used this rod recently on a river hike in NH. It performed beautifully **enjoyable.fishing** recommend as I had hoped it would, on a whole heap of river smallies using tiny torpedoes and tubes.*
Jim, no doubt about it, you're one of the best guys on Earth to do reviews for fishing products!! Sweet reel buddy, no doubt about it! My 13 TXZ casts 2 miles 😄👊💪
Appreciate that brother! I truly enjoy making these types of videos. That TXZ must have a super deep spool! 🤣 I'll have to pick one of those up! Appreciate you watching brother! 👊💪
@@TackleJunky81 🤣👊💪
Used my new tatula 150 today fishing Lake Michigan from the shore, landing a 13.5 lb lake trout 😁😁😁. My first time using a tatula, they are great reel and I’m sure I will be purchasing more in the future. Great video as always 👍👍👍👍👍
Wow, that's a TUB man!! I'm glad you're diggin the 150! Appreciate you watching! 👊💪
Great review! I'm so happy you branched off to other brands then just sticking to okuma!
Appreciate the comment brother and thanks for watching! 👊💪
Great review TJ. I like u dont give out all the specs etc I already know. After watching your review I think now I am going to buy this reel for my crankbait rod which I thought i was going to buy Shimano SLX DC. But sounds like this casts farther, so Ill get this one. Thanks for the video!
Thank you Mike! Great choice...you'll dig it brother!
@@TackleJunky81 I just found the Tatula Elite left hand 7.1 at Midway for $184 blemished price. $55 savings so I popped on it. Cant wait to get it after hearing your review/opinion.
I have 5 of these reels along with the 100s'. They are smooth as butter my friend. Best purchase I've made in fishing by far. Like you said you get what you pay for.
I'm glad you're diggin them brother! 👊💪
I picked up this reel and the curado dc based on your content. Thank you for the great channel and reviews on this reel!
My pleasure buddy and I appreciate you watching! 👊
Debating between the elite and dc , since you got them both which one you like better ?
This is definitely the next reel I’m going to buy. Great review
You'll love it man. Pick it up over at Tackle Inc and use code TJ81 to save 10%. If you don't see it on the site just give them a call.
@@TackleJunky81 Thanks for the heads up on the discount code.
Nice to c the high end stuff! it really makes a difference. I believe in buying one time! Comes from my architectural background. "Measure twice, cut once!
For sure brother! 👊
Great vid! Imo the longest casting reel Daiwa has ever put out would be the old school Zillion HLC. The HLC spool was available separately and will absolutely bomb 1/2 oz baits. Downside, it's prone to backlash with anything lighter and requires a lot of thumb control.
Thank you James! I'm familiar with that reel, but never hand one in hand before.
Awesome man that reel is crazy.
Yes sir!! 👊💪
Cool video. I don't need one but now I want one....lol but I think my next tatula is gonna be a 150 200 or 300. Just so it holds more line. That shirt your wearing is the military green right? Can't wait to get mine. My first real fishing shirt. #getTJ81toBranson !!!!!
Thank you Jeff! Yes sir, military green. 👊💪
Thank you for review! I had a $100 reel but it went to broke after a few months after caught some bigger... Is this reel durable to fight with fish around 6-16lbs? Or better if I climb up to steez ? I am looking to buy something durable, just started to using baitcasting reels but I am addicted now and fishing every days. :D
Hey man good video on this reel. I’ve been eyeing the new model tatula sv..... Then I saw the pitching/flipping version of the elite. Has the same line capacity as the SV “100yrds of 14lb line” The only difference I can see between the elite and elite p/f is the spool size and the handle. I actually prefer the longer handle and smaller/shallower spool for throwing lighter baits. Would I be stupid for getting the elite p/f for all around use? Is there any other differences between the 2 elite models besides the handle and spool? Again I was going to get the sv with the same line capacity as the elite p/f anyway. Just like that longer handle and the aluminum side plate. Any thoughts or opinions would be great brotha! 🤘🏻
Just bought a few elites with all the sales going on and they are incredible. Super smooth, super long casts! I have another 6 gear ratio coming for my spinnerbait rod!
I have a couple now as well. I'm glad you're diggin them brother! 👊💪
lures from 3/16oz to occasionally 1/2oz will it be better with the tatula sv or the elite can handle it better?
@@roborovski008 Lighter lures you'd be better off with the SV, but with the right rod and lb test the elite will still toss lighter lures. Both will bomb 3/8 and up.
Finally got my giveaway mtb box today! Thanks again.
No problem my dude! 👊💪
I'm getting ready to get this reel and I have a quick question, what gear ratio do you normally use for cranking?? Nice video.
Thanks.
Hmmm somebody didn't watch the whole video...
I like the torque power on the lower gear ratio reels! You can really wench them in!
💯
If u suggest an alternative to curado K , which daiwa reel would you recommend ? In your opinion till date which is the best daiwa reel ( that can be used for saltwater too ) ?
The Elite is a animal for sure. I love the one I have. I would have 4 more but i went with Lews Hypermags instead. If i do purchase anymore reels they will all be Elites or Hypermags. 2 best reels on the market imo. They are priced pretty middle of the road (hypermags are almost always on sale around 240) and perform just as good as the Metanium for 40% of the price. Also the Elite is the smoothest reel i've ever used, beating out the Aldebaran and Metanium i previously owned but have since sold. I have my Elite on a Expride 72MH and it lauches 3/8oz dark sleepers with ease.
I need to pick up a Hypermag. Appreciate you watching brother! 👊💪
@@TackleJunky81 You won't be disappointed. I used to hate on lews non stop but now they make up about 1/3 of my reels. The rest are Daiwa and a couple shimanos.
Good point about the gear ratios.
Appreciate you watching! 👊
I like diwia spinning reels the only bait caster that I use is the Calcutta love round reels I use 200gtb never use breaks or cast control
80 or 90 reels!? Holy cow you are the tackle junky! I’m on the fence between the curado dc and tatula elite , for all around bass fishing in the short Iowa season and an occasional Canada trip for walleye. Any thoughts? Thanks good vid
The Elite is built for long casting, but the DC will bomb out a lure as well. For me it really depends on what I'm doing. With moving baits I prefer the Elite as it's more comfortable in hand, but if I'm looking for more control I reach for the DC.
I primarily bank fishing and throwing lures from 3/16oz to occasionally 1/2oz. Would I be better off with the Tatula SV or the Elite can do better?
With the right rod and lighter lb test for lighter lures the elite would be fine, but you'll have more control with the SV.
Good video 👊
Thank you Luis!
would you recommend for dedicated 5xd and 6xd crankbaits? Lesser capacity 12# FC (I plan to use)_than the Diawa Tatula 200 . I'm new to these deep diving cranks but have started with the Shimano Curado K in the (high-powered but slow) 5.0:1 and feel how much less stress it puts on your body casting these cranks for hours on end. Just wondering how much additional stress the 6.3:1 on the Elite I'll feel? Late to the party but appreciate your videos and this one about the Elite, especially in your comparisons and insights with the several other Diawa casting reels you mentioned and showed (I'm leaning towards Daiwa after many years of "Shimano only" short-sightedness)!
For deep cranks, like you said, a slower reel will do the work for you. I personally would stick with a 5 speed, but I don't believe a 6 speed would be too hard on you either. Appreciate the comment and thanks for watching! 👊
Have you tried casting lighter lures with the Elite? If so, how did it perform?
I haven't, for lighter lures I'll use a SV.
Nice reel.
👊💪
Good fishing reel
The Tatula 200 is right there with it in distance 🐟👊
👊💪
Daiwa makes top notch reels
For sure!
Great video...
Thanks man! 👊
Maybe you can answer a question for me. I bought a Concept Z and realize it's probably set on the shelf for a few years. Disappointed in the distance. Do those nonbearing bearings need lubed?
That's a good question man and I honestly don't know. I've been using my Z for a couple years now and I haven't done any maintenance on it and it's still casting like the day I got it.
@@TackleJunky81 does the elite cast a considerable distance further than the concept Z?
How does this Tatula Elite stack up vs your old favorite Okuma Helios SX?
The Helios will probably toss a wider range as the Elite is made for long casting with a bit heavier lure.
So, I have to slightly disagree with this, and I apologize for that TJ. A couple of years back I bought a jdm tatula HLC, and I have to say that I've never had anyone outcast me since the day I spooled it up. I have it on my crank bait rod with 12lb invisx, and this reel sails whatever I cast with it. It beats out all the other reels in my arsenal with ease. Now, to be fair, I can't say that the elite won't cast far because I haven't bought one yet, but I will gladly test it out to see if I'm wrong. But until then, nothing I have can cast nearly as far as the HLC, and I have a good assortment of reels lol. You got me into Daiwa when I first started watching your channel, so I blame you for my obsession lol. The only reel I would love to get is the Steez, which I'll never be able to afford. Great vid bro, always keep that awesome content coming our way!
No need to apologize brother. Have you tried putting anything lighter than a 1/2oz on that reel? It's not a bad obsession to have right?! 😉 Appreciate you brother! 👊💪
@@TackleJunky81 Yessir, I was using it as a weightless craw for a while because it casts light lures very easily. Can even cast a roostertail on it. But I picked up a different reel for that so I could use this for what I actually bought it for lol. I didn't have a medium moderate when I first bought the reel, but as soon as I got one I slapped it on there and never looked back.
Maybe daiwa but so far I have seen nothing that out casts the metanium mgl or anteres dc.
shimano and daiwa makes the best reels period and are they only companies that actually build reels instead of using oems
to each their own just shimanos hold up better over time
I just use a little bobber
I believe the diawa elite is a 100 size reel.
Yes it is. Appreciate you watching brother!
To me, daiwa has made the biggest leap from a performance standpoint in the last 3-5 years. And considering their price points with reels that perform better than most in the price point only a matter of time before they take over i.m.o.
👊💪
Man I'm guilty of this myself but- we anglers put far too much importance on the reel when it's the rod we should really concern ourselves with. The truth is that a 50 dollar black max on a good high end rod is all you really need. As long as a reel doesn't backlash, is easy enough to dial in, and has a smooth drag- it's fine, and a 50 dollar black max checks all those boxes. Rods are a different story- a truly high end rod is going to cost quiet a bit- but it's worth every penny. That said- most anglers I know have a handful of rods and then 3 times as many reels. They'll save for months to buy a reel and then just grab whatever rod they can afford once they get it- that's backwards. We literally should go buy the best rod we can get- then just grab whatever reel will suffice- which should rarely run more than 100 bucks imo. For a 100 maybe 150 I can get all the reel I would ever need, even if I was a pro.
For sure! You fight the fish with the rod not the reel, but companies always put more marketing in to the reels which is probably what drives the price up.
That is a nice reel !!!!
the only issue i really have is the t wing system on daiwa’s where i run braid to a long leader and knots will get caught in it but if i was going to run straight sunline fc sniper or seagur invizx i wouldn’t have the issue i have using my 25-30 ft leader
I hear that man. I don't run leaders, so I haven't came across that issue. Appreciate you watching brother!
i really like a braid to leader for a spinnerbait and chatterbaits gain sensitivity and casting distance shimanos have big eyes and with a albright knot it goes right through fg i’m sure it would also but it takes to long to tie for me
What about the Z TJ
It's definitely a contender.
@@TackleJunky81 You mean the concept Z performs close to this Elite?
3 years later, how do you feel about it?
I'm trying to chuck 1/2 buzz bait as far as possible from the bank.
Z2 is a great casting reel, but yeah, still use and love the Elite! 👊
@TackleJunky81 cool, thanks fit the reply bro. You think it handles buzzbaits and spinnerbaits well, or struggle with less aerodynamic lures?
@@slabslapper8507 it'll work just fine.
Gift it to me sir please?
You mean to tell me.. That the material a side plate is made out of.. Combined with the total weight.. Doesn't make me a cooler kid that's better than everyone else with reels that have inferior weight and material!? BS!!
- Every spoiled fan boy with high end / top of the line gear that isn't a real bass fishermen
Lol
Dude you spend way too much time on these reviews talking about things that just really aren’t important. Does it really take 30 minutes to talk about why the tat elite is different or better than another real? You’re not as interesting as you think you are! Ridiculous get to the point !!!! The tea wing system has nothing to do with the back lashes. If you’re back lashing it’s because you screwed something up
T-wing system Has nothing to do with you back lashing. This dudes a wack job
Thanks for watching! 👊
