Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

The slx is honestly quite easily best reel award for the money in my book. I own two and ha e put both through the test and i have zero complaints. My only reminder to the consumer is to watch out as the breaking system is manuel, and you have to open...  Read More

But i would even argue that point because at some point you are going to have to learn how to manage your spool speed with your thumb regardless. The friction brakes are very high quality, and i almost never backlash on this reel.



Cons

I'm very dissatisfied, now it's on me to send it back and pay the shipping for warranty. Haven't cut it yet.

Quality


I have a couple corados and dc reels and the slx is not the same as them but for the price the quality is definitely there.


You may also look to see if you can get a deal on a combo with the rod and reel.


I have a curado i, with the external tuning and that is so much easier to adjust than having to open the frame to adjust.

Price


Love the reel and a very reasonable price.


A really good reel for a good price.


What it does do is destroy everything in its price range!

Packaging/appearance


The reel has very comfortable grips just like on the curados.

Competitiveness


I have several baitcasting reels and this is one of best ones i have bought!


After owning baitcasting reels for over 15 years, i was honestly shocked with how well this thing performs.

    I live in florida so heavy cover and lily pads are a daily grind

    Don’t waste money on other reels


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The dc system tends to stop the bait to much so when you are jigging it is difficult to maintain slack to let the bait drop instead of pull back


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I had on small backlash out of about 100 casts and it was my fault


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Wanted a better reel than a black max or silver max and was willing to spend the money


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    If you can spend a little more i would recommend to get the slx dc or the slx xt

    I have a curado i with the external tuning and that is so much easier to adjust than having to open the frame to adjust
