    Thanks as always for your reviews, blessings! The 21' is very nice size wise compared to my tank 16'. It's actually palmable/comfortable/lightweight, pics don't do size justice on this reel, I was skeptical. Man the handle is a bummer but thanks for some of your latest vids!!! Be safe 🙏

    I held off on getting one because I already have the 17 exsence dc and the 18 Antares monster drive. I fish primarily salt water. I finally pulled the trigger on one and fished with it two weeks ago. I was extremely impressed with the casting range. I started off throwing top water, and then finished off the day throwing lures weighing as little as 1/8 of an ounce. It was casting long and far no problem. Granted I didn’t have the right rod for such light lures but still the reel casted them no problem. I liked it so much that I pre ordered the new exsence dc

    ive pre-ordered same hour it was available, I am 3rth in line for Left XG, I personally never think twice on Antares DC, I have them all and I fish with them always even if they are bulkier. You imagine you making 200 cast with no problem regardless of condition, Cast after cast, no backlash no nothing, so this reel is a winner. if I had money I would get 16 of them for all my combos.

      I found its unecessary to have a tension knob on the 2016 antares, it merely there to maximize side to side spool play, same reason daiwa made the zero adjuster, no need to adjust spool tension for each lure anymore, the breaking system alone was sufficient enough. Its not for finesse or super heavy baits so the extra spool tension is negligible. Also the new 2021 antares is amazing casts the same as the 2016 but palms like a curado 70, i can bomb 1/4 ned rigs and weightless flukes
