Anyone using the Shimano Chronarch MGL? Worth the $$$?

Jim

Got it, use it, love it. I've upgraded bearings to BOCA ABEC7 ceramics though. It definitely feels like $300+ reel. I use for weightless plastics and dropshotting.

+1 awesome reel. I have used mine for even texas rigs and so on on 1/2 once weights. but not anything heavy. In my opinion its basically the old model Chronarch 51MG. But in low profile.

Thanks for the input, what rods are you using with the Chronarch?

It actually has more line capacity than the MG50, almost like a 100 size reel.
