So what is the difference between the Tatula CT 150, the Tatula 150 SV, the Salamandura SV TW 150, and the Tatula TW 150 (36mm spool)?😵‍💫😵‍💫

From what I understand, CT is the "common" Tatula, am I correct?

Hey buddy, I totally agree with your point of view, but right now I can't get two different reels, so I need to buy one that works for everything and then maybe buy another one later. I probably bought the bigger one first so it works for both types of fishing, even though it's oversized for the Tararira. In that case, which one would you go for and why? I think it's a bit late for those who don't know the dorado; it's like a snakehead, aggressive, territorial, fast, strong, or like a tucunare, except it has teeth. Just like those predators, it is voracious

Do you think the Tatula TW 150 will be more effective for the weight range I use? On another note, besides thanking you and everyone who helped by teaching me and giving me their advice and opinions, I want to thank you for the line count calculator; it's excellent! THANK YOU ALL! You proved to be an excellent community!

Salamandura If it's aluminum, the side cover on the gear side is made of aluminum; the one on the magnetic side is made of resin (that one doesn't suffer any kind of traction or torsion). Which I understand is the same in the Tatula TW 150

Hey friend, how are you? This was the original reel I considered, the very first one! In fact, it's where my debate started about whether to choose the Salamandura SV TW 150 with the SV Boost spool or the Tatula 150 With LC concept spool and Mag Z brake. Returning to the discussion, which one would you choose and why? What advantages do you see in one over the other?

Sorry! I didn't explain myself correctly. The species is the Dorado, which is found in Argentina and Brazil; its scientific name is Salminus brasiliensis

Hi friend, it's me, the author, haha. It's true I don't have a Daiwa supplier. Something I want to make very clear is that the Paraná River is NOT saltwater; it's completely freshwater.

I understand! You're referring to the shorter shaft, excellent. I was paying attention to the spool itself and not its shaft. Thank you very much. I'm going to try hard to save up for the Zillion HD, but it's not an easy task.

Interesting! I'll use that price as a reference. My question came to mind when I read "34mm floating spool"—does that refer to a special type of spool? Or is it just a translation error?

We're talking about this reel model (link)? Or is it someone else? https://a.aliexpress.com/_mMX7fap

To add more options to the game, the Salamandura SV TW has a 34mm spool with SV Boost brakesThe Tatula TW 150 has a 36/24mm LC spool concept, The Shimano 150 M has a 32/23mm MGL III spool, and Shimano cured DC 151 or 201 with a 34/2 spool. Remember that I will be using lures from 10 to 40 grams to fish for Predator e species up to 5 kilograms or 10 pounds, although one day I might catch something larger than 7 or 10 kilograms God willing, hahaha. The line I use is PE 2 (0.2 mm) or 0.23 mm in some cases, but always PE.

Hello my old friend! I switched from the SV Boost vs MagZ dispute to the Daiwa vs Shimano dispute! Excuse my ignorance, but speaking another language only amplifies my limited understanding. Is the HYPERDRIVE made of brass? Do you mean all reels with HYPERDRIVE technology have brass gears?

I understand, that would be ideal. In fact, I was told that combining that reel with an SV BOOST spool would be perfect... But unfortunately, my budget doesn't allow it right now. In that case, I would lose the SV Boost spool and its advantages. Do you think the LC spool with MagZ is up to par?

I use a conventional magnetic braking system (the worst of all without a doubt) I chose the SV for its versatility; I have a very wide range of lures. Besides I read that its performance against the wind or even when changing lure weights is very good and you don't have to constantly adjust to avoid backlashes; it sounds perfect, the only thing that "stops" me It's the possibility that it won't cast far in a wide river, or I also read that they often don't come well greased; on the other hand, they say they start making noise quickly with use, and finally, The fish tend to be a bit more powerful, and I'm afraid of damaging the reel. I also had doubts about whether the SV Boost reel could cast the 40-gram lure, but I was told that it could, and that they've even cast up to 52 grams.
