God I absolutely love this reel. I got the 7 ratio paired with a 7’1” Medium Fast action St Croix Bass X rod and wow what an amazing combo! Looks killer with the blue yozuri braid on it! Anything with a treble hook I throw on this combo. Excellent jerk bait combo. Even though it’s a fast action rod I enjoy throwing crank baits, lipless and lipped on it as well. Even little 1/4oz finesse jigs. I also have a Scorpion MGL that I absolutely LOVE. Paired with a 6’10” medium moderate fast action Doomsday 47 rod. Wow what an excellent top water setup.
@@THEREELTEST well, I will say it is worth the little bit of extra money but honestly they are just the same, I would probably recommend the JDM version just because of how nice it looks but both are great reels👍
I’ve been covered in tattoos since I was 17-18 I’m 29 and god has been good in my life with continued prayer. I don’t believe god had anything to do with covid or the riots. Not sure if that’s what you meant tho. Love the channel buddy, I wanna get a dc Curado or chronarch. Something with a salmon steelhead sized Spool.
I have tattoos too, but don't fault him for his interpretation. He does that because he cares. And just because we might have ink doesn't mean it's right and doesn't mean God won't be there for us.
Would love to see a cast comparison. Not even that I think one would out perform the other by any great margin, but just to hear the dc brakes working at the finest lol. You know what would be awesome, an American version of the scorpion dc!
I've been using mine for a bit now and it's smoother than my 151. And I can't confirm but the DC seems to be better at controlling the spool. I should swap spools and test it.
@@THEREELTEST For sure will post it! I was just looking forward to being the only one who ha a review video of it XD although I have had on the water time unlike you. And although the castability and distance is better with the 70 its not huge like you would expect, except when it comes to skipping.
If everything else being equal i think the 70 size theoretically should have a slight advantage, due to a narrower spool... Looking forward to casting comparison.
First thing Mr. Reel Test Guy I believe you do a great service to your fellow fishing enthusiast I enjoy your reviews. As a newbie I have a JDM 70 DC. To be fair I have 2 months of bait casting experience. So please take my opinion in that frame. This reel is junk I would rather cast a Piscifun Phantom or my $60 Lew's entry level baitcaster. I don't have a smooth enough casting motion to get consistent cast with my DC. I've cut more line off this reel then any of my 2 Phantom reels. (those are nice reels easy to use cast a mile smooth as butter soon some ceramic upgrades a $80 reel that is just killing it.)
@@THEREELTEST I went in my back yard went to work I put in a couple of hours really working with a sidearm casts. The backlash issues became much more controllable smaller and the real casts better with less effort. Everytime I try to get a little more this reel will make you pay with an over run. Thanks for the help you need to pin the Japanese translation at the top of the comments.
Hello my friend, very long time im looking for a baitcaster reel. I'm fishing on a very light lures. Also i need to have a spool where i don't need to wind like 300m of line, bcz i use very tight line, max 0.05mm. You are probably the only one to recommend me something for that. A lot of reels i saw, they have a spool of like 0.23mm-150m, that means i need a lot more line to make my spool full. It's better if you have some contact, outside of yt. Cheers
I thought the jdm met was 100 size spool. You can use google translate on your phone to get an idea of what the manual says. It's mostly nonsensical, but you get the general idea.
I love all my Shimano reels but that whole 70 size spool gimmick is a joke!! They use all the same parts of a previous year reel (except the spool which goes to a heavy ass 70 size!), change the paint, put some 10 cent bearings in the knobs and hype it up like it's something new.....geez..cmon guys. They just keep setting the hook on fools everyday. BAAAHHHHAAAAAAHHHAAAA!!!
We have made mistakes with our bodily mutilation, This is why Our Lord Jesus had died for us . To forgive what we did wrong and Thanking him for his love.
Expensive fishing reels are so over rated. Have the black max,silver,blue maxes. Never had a single problem with any of them and they get used a lot. I'm 64 and fished all my life and have had and been around my share of reels. All that extra money for very minor details is so over rated. Not a pissing match...just truth. Still enjoy watching you hype it up over expensive reels.
Man I did the abu Garcia shred for a min but after going to the dark side of SLX DC's I'll never look back. Hope you join us on the dark side one day. Honestly if you hit me up on here I would gladly share a SLX dc reel from my arsenal just to show you. send me the specs of your typical fishing I would happily spool it up for you already set up just for you to see. I'm sure with using abu your deff a thumb master, this will be the most forgiving reel you ever tried. It gave me more time on the water. Silver max is a fixing work horse tho I'm not ever gonna lie on that.❤
this is a pretty shitty review.... You need to take them apart and see what the internal is like. Is it different bearings or same one in both? What is different side?

what do you think of it?

I need one! Can’t wait to get it!!
I think it's a good think when the tension knob is a little hard to turn. It's less accidentally to turn on it's on in a rod locker or while using it
I’m digging the color of the jdm over the black one I have.

you can use google translate app on your phone and use camera to translate it. you can even take a photo translated
I usually ball out on the higher end stuff but man...this little reel looks 🔥
What a fantastic comparison!!! Congratulations for this excelent video. It was awsome. 👏👏👏👏👏
You should do a cast comparison between the two. USA vs JAPAN. Like Guille vs Ryu 😝
Yeah do it
Just saw ur scripture excerpt and commentary...
Agreed and BE BLESSED!!! Much respect.
Depends if you like a shiny cap and a small knob or a dull cap and a larger knob. Clearly.

Today I was gonna drop my first ever youtube video and it's my SLX DC70 review video. And here you go posting your fire video of your preview of it...
dont let this stop you from posting your review, people need different reviews and opinions other than mine
@@THEREELTEST For sure will post it! I was just looking forward to being the only one who ha a review video of it XD although I have had on the water time unlike you. And although the castability and distance is better with the 70 its not huge like you would expect, except when it comes to skipping.
I can’t wait to get one. I definitely NEED it! Awesome vid as always man!
I'd like to see a curado 70 mgl vs the 70 Slx dc since the both marketed at 70 size and basically the same price
the curado is much smaller and its spool is much lighter, I dont think they are made for the same techniques
If everything else being equal i think the 70 size theoretically should have a slight advantage,
due to a narrower spool... Looking forward to casting comparison.
That slx dc 70xg, and I have slx dc 71hg, elegant reel☺☺☺
Bro, can share the japan shop you normally order your reels? Would love to order one from them. thanks
I tried to find a part in the video where you say we can buy this? And there is no link in the bio. Very unusual.
Dude shimano makes everything now.
Id believe it if someone said thier coming out with a bass rise dc
Lol

backlash issues?
Your not doing something right then because I can cast twice as far with a DC then those reels
the Piscifun Phantom is a beast but Shimano doesnt put out uncastable junk. Ill see how mine performs and share with everybody

Have you done a video on the JDM MGL......Is there any difference between the American version......
Hi. At the end did you receive some confirmation from Japanese folks about the breaks? are those 4 numbers same as the USA version? Thanks
Can’t wait to see this!
I have it and it's way better then any us dc
Tq for reviewing.. nice video 👍👍👍🇲🇾🇲🇾
Joe simpson did this almost a year ago, he even gave you a shout out. Looks like a pretty sweet reel.
Ill have to check it out
@@THEREELTEST he did do the slx DC 70 but he was talking about your scorpion dc now that I'm actually listening to it.

I thought the SLX DC was 150?
@@MrUCL The us slx dc is 150, the jdm is 70. Like he says in the video it's not a big difference, the 70 size spool helps with pitching lighter lures.
Can you make top 3 reels by your measures for every budget?
whats the difference between this and the 150?
What ratio good for ultra light lure.?please some one sugges

How much line will hold a 8lb test braid or fluoro
cool..malaysia is my country 🤩
Oh yeah another unboxing
Where can I get it ? Website pls.
Is this better than the curado dc 150
No. I have both. Spend the extra money and get the curado dc.
@@30minforasn I have the curado dc might get the metanium next
You should review the new Kistler baitcasters
Final countdown
Does the spool are same material?
Where did u buy it
DC 70 looks better JDM will get loser and smoother the more you use it 😎🤙
We have made mistakes with our bodily mutilation, This is why Our Lord Jesus had died for us . To forgive what we did wrong and Thanking him for his love.
i can't imagine how many reels are delivering to his house?
lol
made in japan or malay?
Can you use this in saltwater
shimano japan says yes
Very unique 👌 use 7days in your home 🏡 using 😀 👍 using 😀 👍 👌 😄 using 8th floor 😀 😄 have to make 😀 unique 9th and 9th 9th of a single
Love the Bible verses!
Nice how much
prices are all over but its about the same price as the US SLX DC
I've been wanting to ask you, why do you put the bible-verses in your video's?
You know there is a thing called google translate right? Put your phone up to it and voila.
I can barely work social media lol
What.??This reel are Made in Malaysia.?Are you sure bro?
