Not happy withI bought a the Tatula LT to replace an older Shimano Stradic that I gave my son (reel is 20 years old and still runs like a Swiss watch). I used the Tatula for 20 minutes and took it back. Felt incredibly cheap. I have a Stradic Ci-4 and it IMO is 10X the reel the Tatula is. I'm going back to Shimano!

4 Tatula LT fished hard two seasonsI switched over all my spinning reels to these. They have been fished hard for two seasons from stream smallies to large bass and pike. No flex and super smooth operation. The drag is fantastic and starts up easy and is smooth. I landed a 5lb smallmouth and two pike over 9lbs on them. Zero problems. Lightweight bruisers.

love this reelI have been using Revo spinning reels for the last several years. My biggest issue with the Revo is is the amount of pressure it takes to engaging the bail. I bought a Tatulalt after getting the feel of one at the store. It is very smooth .. It is a noticeable upgrade from the Revo. I have bought another one. I have had no issues with the reel at all...I love it. .. great reel

Solid reel, unless you want to spend over $600I picked up the 2500 series for my ags neko rod last year. Used the reel hard in tournaments for a year. I want to start by saying this, if you try to spool braid directly onto the spool without a mono backer it will slip and this is not the reels fault it is yours.
I have caught a 7lb largemouth on this reel and a plethora of fish between 2-5lbs both smallie and largemouth. I have never had an issue with the drag knob if you keep this reel as it is designed, a finesse reel you will have no issues.
The only reels I have used that I feel are better is,
1.Diawa exist G LT
2. Shimano Stella (I prefer a paddle handle, so the 2500 would be best)
3. Shimano exsence
So I will highly recommend this reel for all finesse techniques it is not meant to throw moving baits that's what a baitcasters is for.

Cheap MaterialI just purchased the Tatula LT 4000-CXH yesterday and used it for the first time today. Broke the drag knob. It's made out of cheap plastic, hence the light weight. Would definitely not recommend this reel.

DisappointedI have been a faithful Daiwa user most of my life. I started with the first pro caster. I used the solas and still have one that works great. I tried the fuego and and at times had issues with the anti revers. So I switched to Plugers top line spinning reels for a few years. I had some issues with anti revers on my last top line Pluger that I was about to replace all my spinning reels with so I tried the Tutulla. The first one still works ok. It is supper smooth to reel but the drag is not at all smooth but I was impressed with the weight. My second Tutulla is now in the bottom of the boat. It will never see action again and I will never buy another Daiwa in my life. I don’t plan to contact anybody at Daiwa. I got a bit close to the boat and this awful sound accompanied by excruciating pain on my right index finger and the reel spinning backwards has done it for good. Daiwa needs to go back 40 years to when they made great innovative reels and pick it up from there. I’m done with Daiwa for good. It like a Ford man switching to Chevy. I need something I can depend on for years. If Shimono can get it done i will need 6 to 8 new spinning reels.

Like, but not loveAfter using CI4 for many years this is a very good reel. The look and feel of the reel is very nice and it pairs well with just about and rod. Spooled up with 10lb nanobraid and hit the water. Fished steelhead in the morning without and issues and bull bluegill in the afternoon, Anaheim without any issues. So far a very solid reel. The only thing I noticed that was different from my CI4(besides the weight, this is much lighter) is the sharp edge on the spool. The line on the CI4 just flies off the spool. This reel it’s like you can hear the line drag almost. It however did cast just as far. Going on a marathon fishing trip and that should be the determining factor. Overall, it’s a very nice reel you can fish with, and make lots of cast without getting wore out.

Great reel!This is an awesome spinning reel. It's one of the lightest reels I've ever held in my hand, and it's also very rigid and quite durable. The drag is amazing too. First off it's very smooth, and the drag knob is huge and comfortable to use and adjust, and it only takes a few clicks to really tighten or loosen the drag. The retrieve is also quite smooth. Every once in a while I will feel a kink or the gears meshing especially with heavier baits, but for the most part I don't feel too much and reeling in baits is very pleasurable. Reeling in a fish though with this thing is just pure fun. Even though cranking the handle isn't the smoothest I've felt, it's definitely very powerful for a spinning reel. It takes virtually no strength or effort to crank the handle while the rod is under a heavy load, and therefore getting a big bass close enough to you to land is easy and a lot of fun. Love this reel!
