Count me in for an 841 and 901, if they get their act together...

I have the Bantam MGL on a couple of my Conquest rods and really like how it feels and fishes. I think it's the finest casting reel Shimano has built since the Chronarch D.

My reels are Daiwa, Shimano, or Megabass. I have no information about the Concept C or a size comparison. The Bantam MGL is a much smaller reel than most folks expect in my experience, and a very impressive one at that!

What is everyone using their 904’s for? I have an 843 and am very impressed with the way it fishes. So light weight and nimble. I’m debating 904-844’s
