I have the SLX 70 DC, SLX MGL 70, Curado 150 and I love them all! Thanks for the video!
Right on! 👊
As a guy who usually goes way overkill with reel size I was leaning the 150 for a squarebill setup because I felt 85 yards of 12lb on the 70 wouldn’t be enough 🙄. It really depends on the situation but I ended up going with the 70 and so glad I did. Lighter, smaller, just more comfortable all around. And even though it’s says 85 yards of 12lb I was able to get 96 yards of Sunline FC crank on it without overfilling it. Love it!
Right on! 👊💪
really like your reviews of fishing equipment
Appreciate you! 👊
I picked up a 150 and love it. My favorite of all in my arsenal.
Right on! 👊
I dont have any 70 size reels but I pitch a ton. I always liked the 100 series. I just thought they were more light weight designed so I never looked at them. I may have to go put my hands on a 70 at the tackle store and see how it feels. 👍🏼👊🏼
Right on brother! 👊💪
The Curado/SLX 70 reels are about the same frame size as the latest Daiwa Tatula 100s with a much smaller spool capacity.
My slx mgl is probably my favorite reel that I own, and was also the cheapest. I upgraded the bearings to Boca. Great for pitching texas rigs. This platform will also BOMB jerkbaits into the next dimension on light line. I keep 8-10 lb test on mine.
Right on! 👊
My 70 slx is for the BFS. those little baits are addicting! 🎣🎣
💯
Glad they’re going back to smaller reels and spools. My first reel was the original Lews Speed Spool made by Shimano. I used #8 mono and it held like a 110 yards and I could spool it worth a Zara Spook easily. But I could also work a 1/16 oz Texas Rig and throw 1/8 and 1/4 oz lures with ease. Years ago Shimano made the Core 50. Awesome reel. Then recently they’ve come back starting with the Aldebaran. But now they’ve been slowly putting them in other models
Right on...I'm diggin them as well! 👊💪
I just ordered the new metanium dc for my finesse style baits and I’m stoked
Right on! I ordered 1 this morning as well! 👊💪
Where did you order it from? I used a Japanese site to order a scorpion, and I'm always wondering if it's legit. I like my curado way better.

Gonna have to check out the 70! Great video and great job TJ! Thanks as always for sharing!
Thank you brother! 👊💪
I really enjoyed this video. I had never really put thought into reel size...but will from now on.
Right on brother! 👊
Great review Jim, I will need to rewatch these when I get to the point of affording a reel and rod for every occassion !
Appreciate you watching brother! 👊
I’m with you. The slx70 has the mgl3 spool and should be amazing. I need to get on it and get one ordered. Price point is amazing as well
💯
I have the slx mgl 70 first gen and I love it I used it for light baits but I’m going to try and flip around with it this yr
Right on! 👊💪
The SLX 70 & Curado 70 are both killer reels.
💯
Been liking the Daiwa and Shimano 70/80 sizes. Thinking they maybe a great all around for the Yak. Look forward to your review of the new SLX when it is out!
💯 brother! 👊
Great informative video brotha!👊👊
Thanks man! 👊💪
Love my slx mgl 70 reel its my squarebill and light to medium weight cranking reel. I wouldn't ever pitch my area with a shimano though lol to much thick stuff and not enough drag poundage imo. I make 20lb drags slip 😂. I have two 150 size and the curado 200 too. All great reels just don't use them for frogs, most topwater baits or pitching and flipping cover. I use a lews or a abu revo for that.
Right on brother! 👊💪
Spot on brotha 🔥! Great video
Thanks man! 👊
Thank you sir!
Appreciate you watching! 👊
Awesome video!
Appreciate you watching! 👊
With the 70, I would be concerned that if I was nearly spooling the reel on the cast, the inches per turn on line retrieval would be significantly smaller.
Yup, most likely...I have a video on that as well.
Good video Jim 🤛 any new okuma products
Thanks man! I do have an Okuma order coming in! 👊💪
The SLX MGL 70 first version came out at the same time as the Curado MGL 70 and has been a much better value I have been using both since they were first released, and on the water, I have to look at the reel to tell which one I'm using at the time since there is no real world performance difference between them. The new version has the MGL III spool and is gong to blow the Curado out of the water. The JDM SLX DC has been a 70 size with the MGL spool for a couple of years now and the SLX DC XT even has the I-DC5 braking system (think Metanium DC in the US market) in addition to the MGL III spool.
Right on brother! Appreciate the info! 👊💪
And for reference, I use one of my SLX MGL 70s with 6# for throwing spybaits and really light crankbaits. I use another with 20# braid to a long 10# leader for jerkbaits. The Curado 70s I have one rigged exactly like the second SLX on a second of the same rod for a second jerkbait (different sizes or depths), light underspin, or light to medium topwater. The other I have with 30# braid to a leader for shaky head and light Texas rigs. The MGL spools are great for long casts, but I lean on my Daiwa reels for pitching as the magnetic brakes just have better control at lower spool speeds.
I don’t know of any reel that casts 70 or 80 yards
👊💪
Loved the video brother, any rod power/length recommendations for that size 70? I recently got one and am torn on what rod to pair with it.
Thanks man! Depends what you want to do with it. I mainly use that Curado to pitch with, so I have it on a heavy power rod. I have another 70 on a top water rod.
I put mine on a 7'2 ML expride, weedless keitech setup.
Sweet looking reel 👍👍👍
👊💪
Would the 70 be a good jerk bait reel.
💯
It's an excellent Jerk bait reel. Slap it on a 6'10" Expride Med. and your all set.
Will you do an unboxing of the new Shimano SLX A 70? Comes out tomorrow….
Yes sir! 👊💪
Love these gear reviews. I’ve been looking at the SLX 70 for BFS style baits . Not something I do often but want to have at the ready
Right on brother! 👊
Absolutely great video... Alot of good points and tips , I actually just ordered the new slx a 70 , mgl spool at a $99.99 price... Hard to beat that as a workhorse flipper
Where?
Right on brother! 👊💪

Shimano needs to make up it's mind how much line a 70 reel holds they claim 100 meters of 12 lb test which is 109 yards..not 85 ..
If Im just throwing low weight/weightless texas rigs, some spinnerbaits, and the occasional jig, would the 70 size be okay? I would put 12lb fc on it and I rarely cast over 40 yards i'd estimate.
I stupidly bought an SLX DC 71 on Amazon without first researching what the 70 meant 😅
💯 brother! You'll dig it! 👊
@@TackleJunky81 Thanks! Awesome video, incredibly informative.
Sweet video
Thanks man! 👊💪
Nothing can beat a Calcutta 50 series.
👊💪
@@TackleJunky81 I have four of them. They were purchased around 98-2000. They are like little machines. So simple to clean. Cast like champ. Best money I ever spent. Buy the Calcutta. I got my son one for graduation. Now it is called the conquest.
What size do you think would be best for jerkbaits?
Either would work, but the 70 would be perfect.
I just don't understand these small spools. I get it for techniques like BFS and whatnot. But I'm a tournament guy. I want all the line I can get because I'm retying all day long. So the "barely" reduced performance of having the larger spool is a much larger benefit of not having to respool during the day. I say that because go weigh 50-70 yards of 12-15 lb test line. It's less than a gram of weight. It's nothing. So if you tournament fish you're much better off with the larger spools and learning to control them than you are with the miniscule finesse of the smaller spools. That's my $0.02 from someone that's fished tournaments going on 20 years now.
I think it’s about what feels good in the hand. If you need the extra line for tournaments, then this doesn’t make sense. For those days of just relaxed fishing this works great.
Appreciate the feedback brother! 👊💪
Nawww. 30 lb braid backing then attach flouro to it on the 70 size.
Get longer casting distance, and more line on the reel.
I'm not a leader guy, but yeah that works for sure! 👊💪
Which reel case is that bro?
Okuma.
150 is the best size
