Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the SLX MGL available in JDM only? That technically still leaves a hole in the USDM.

This is too good of a deal to pass up. Pre-order placed.

7:1 Long Cast model

Reporting back after my second outing with my Elite.

This time I respooled with braid and got the brakes dialed in. The Elite is definitely the further caster than the K.

I own two K's and a Scorpion MGL. I also just got an Elite last week. I've only got about an hour on the Elite so far, but I will say this. I'm getting the same distance with the Elite throwing at 75% power as I do with my Shimano's throwing at 100% power. I'm still getting used to the the braking s...

I bought one on the cheap, cheap to check it out (the tour s3 version). Had every intention of using it because it seemed like a cool reel for the money. Ended up not using it and wanting something else, so I sold it before I ever used it. From just handling it, it seemed like a decent reel.

Those who own one of the new Tatula Elites - how are these things for casting? How do they compare to the current Shimano MGL options? Lately, I find myself leaving my Daiwa's at home and only taking my Shimano's with me, but I don't want to completely give up on Daiwa yet. I'm currently looking at ...

I've been putting some miles on mine since it was released. It's great for bombing Keitechs and spinnerbaits. I'm really happy with mine and I'm debating picking one up in a 6:1 to go with my HG.

Who has some on the water experience with these? I'm looking at trying one of these out or maybe another Scorpion MGL.

From my best guess of reading Japanese, my box says there's 7 bearings. Thanks. If it has 7+1, they probably added one to the levelwind, normally the Scorpions are a slightly upgraded Curado. Also possible that the count is identical to the Curado K, and it was a simple misprint to list as 7+1 rath...

From my best guess of reading Japanese, my box says there's 7 bearings. From the way the handle knobs turn, they feel like there's only bushings in there. As for the levelwind, I'm not sure on that on yet. I keep a pretty good stash of those bearings in the shop and I usually add them to all my reel...

I got mine in yesterday. Man is this thing sweet. Feels just like my Metanium and Chronarch MGL's when I turn the handle. The red is a nice dark red with a shiny dark titanium accents with some red metal flakes in it. The tension control knob even has a scorpion etched into it. I can't wait to get i...

Heads up they are out now, eBay has them as well as Japan lure shop. I have mine on the way should be here by Saturday! I can’t wait. :D Thanks for the heads up. I bought a 151HG from eBay last night before bed. I woke up this morning to tracking information and a message from the retailer thanking...
