Still haven't caught anything to really test the clutch out, it is a bit quick, but the weight of these reels is unbelievable, and casting seems to be a breeze, it just seems to fly off the spool! Very glad I bought them 🙌🏼

I'm still unsure about the Okuma Obsedian 120000 now that I've seen the Daiwa '23 Emblem 35 SCW QD
I really want to get rid of my Shimano XTE 14000 quickly

I've now replaced the carbon washers with felt ones supplied by Andy at Weston, has now reduced the drag from the 2-3 clicks to about 1/2-3/4 of a turn much happier.

XTE are my 5th pair of Shimano reels that I have had over the past 30 years and the XTE are the first that I am not satisfied with at all, the Shimano reels I had before the XTE were the XTD price quality okay I didn't expect too much from them, but the XTE is not worth the Ci4 label imo a lot of plastic and the line safety guard is also a joke.
With the XTE it is also the first time that I am not comfortable when I cast far , had 1 time where the line safety guard simply popped out together with the spool when hitting my rod very hard (+130 yard)...
Daiwa '23 Emblem 35 SCW QD is on it's way also

Think I will have a look as well, that was about the same turn on my shimano, if so, sounds perfect 👍🏻

Strange, have been using Shimano reels for the last 45 years, and think the XTE series is great, have been using them since their introduction, no problems whatever, excellent price-quality ratio,
