Description

Marketed as the "jet-black neo-versatile," the 24METANIUM DC (24 Metanium DC) is an all-round baitcasting reel built around a low-inertia MGL Spool III sized 34/19mm for a balance of light start-up and cast distance.

Its DC brake runs the new I-DC5 firmware, sensing spool rotation and adjusting braking force instantly for longer casts with less backlash. A Core Solid Body gives the low-profile frame high rigidity without adding weight, and the Micro Module Gear is backed by X-SHIP for a smooth, precise retrieve. The external brake dial offers 3 line modes x 5 brake levels — 15 settings in total — adjustable without opening the side plate.

Sizes: 70, 71, 70HG, 71HG, 70XG, 71XG.

Information

The drivetrain

A low-inertia MGL Spool III sized 34/19mm balances a light start-up with solid casting distance, while a Core Solid Body keeps the low-profile frame rigid without adding weight, and the Micro Module Gear backed by X-SHIP gives a smooth, precise retrieve.

What it's built for

An all-round baitcaster suited to a wide range of techniques and lure weights in one reel, from cranking to pitching, wherever a versatile rather than technique-specific baitcaster is wanted.

How it fishes

The new I-DC5 brake firmware senses spool rotation and adjusts braking force instantly for longer casts with less backlash, and 15 total brake settings (3 line modes × 5 levels) can be dialled in externally without opening the side plate.

Spools and spares

Pair with a medium-power fast-action baitcasting rod and 10–20 lb fluorocarbon or braid with a fluorocarbon leader, choosing standard, HG or XG gearing to suit preferred retrieve speed.
