Tatula 200 for Swimbaits?

Featured Replies

Finally grabbed myself a Fury 795SB during the holiday sales so now I need a reel to put on it.

 

At this point, I don't have plans to pick up any of the really big baits so I'll stick with my current options of 6" Bullshads, Hudd 68s, Gantarel, S-Waver 168s and others in that range or smaller.

 

Any thoughts on whether a Tatula 200 would be up to the job?  Aluminum frame, brass gears, 100m handle and line capacity all appear to check the needed boxes but wanted to get some other input.

I just put a full season on mine tossing various baits from 3/4 to around 2oz, it’s been rock solid and an outstanding value imo. The only hitch you may run into is if you use a heavier braid with a leader it might be a tight fit for the knot coming through the line guide. Might tinker with some upgrades for next season just for shins & giggles.

This is the exact setup I use and it works great. I'm not a huge fan of the round reels so I went this route and am glad that I did.

 

For line I use 20lb Big Game.

I had every intention of waiting for feedback but after I saw the prices on that auction site, I went ahead and placed the order.

I have the 200, I use it for Heavy, deep cranking.  I use a Lexa 300 for large swimbaits.

Have the 200 on my Irod 783 sb...17 lb test, and it works fine for the 68's, ect.
