Shimano Talica 2 Speed Lever Drag Reels Review

The Talica is an excellent choice for offshore trolling. The Shimano Tallus or Terez trolling rods are the rods you will want to pair one up with.

I think it would be a good choice for that. It is very light and smooth, which is a good choice when stand up fishing. It also has a high line capacity for medium-heavy line weights, which is always a benefit when deep bottom fishing. Overall, this is a g

Hello Jon. The price difference is for both reasons. It is a significantly larger reel with a much stronger drag system. It is of aluminum construction as well. Please feel free to contact us if you have any more questions!

Bert, The Talica series would be an excellent reel for Halibut fishing.

Hello Ken. Take a look at the Terez slick butt rods seen here: http://www.tackledirect.com/shimano-terez-slick-butt-stand-up-ring-guide-rods.html These will be perfect for your setup. Feel free to contact us if you have any more questions!

There are a lot of options for that application. I would recommend taking a look at Avet reels with the Magic Cast feature. Another very solid option would be the Shimano Talica II.

The mono specs are 15/380 20/270 25/215 and the braid specs are 40/540 50/535 65/335.

Yes, the body of the reel is virtually identical and i would recommend using the 10 for more line capacity.

The Talica 16 would be a useful reel for tile fishing in NJ. Thank you for considering TcakleDirect for your fishing needs and have a great day.

Shimano Talica's are only available in a right hand retrieve.

John, Hello yes the talica would be a good reel for jigging.

The Talica 20 would be the best fit for the size tuna your targeting and use a size Large Shimano reel cover.

The 6'6'' or 7' H models would be good options for the Talica 20 your looking to fish with in San Diego.

Yes Sir

I would recommend going with a size 12 or 16 Talica for your fishing application, both reels should supply enough line capacity and have the drag capable of making quick work of these fish

<span>The Shimano Talica TAC8II has a Braid Line Capacity of: 40lb/395yds and 50lb/390yds. The Shimano Talica TAC10II has a Braid Line capacity of: 40lb/540yds and 50lb/535yds. This rating is based on standard Powerpro Braided line. But it all depends on

<span>Hi Ed, Depending on your fishing application, I would recommend a Shimano TVXFC58H Trevala PX Jigging Casting Rod. </span><a>https://www.tackledirect.com/shimano-tvxfc58h-trevala-px-jigging-casting-rod.html</a><span> This would match your Shimano Ta

Depending on the species of tuna you would be fishing for I would say the Shimano Trevala Butterfly Jigging Casting Rods would pair up nice with the Talica.
