Shimano Calcutta TE Baitcasting Reels

I would like to recommend to all the caster. Shimano Calcutta TE Baitcasting Reels is one of the best casting reel I ever use. When I catched a 8kg barramundi (siakap) at Muar River last month, I used my Shimano Calcultta CTE200GT and get satisfied fighting with the barra.

This Shimano Calcutta baitcasting reels come with different model; CTE50GT, CTE51GT (Left),CTE100GT, CTE101 (Left), CTE200GT, CTE200, CTE201 (Left), CTE300, CTE400, CTE401 (Left) and CTE700. That's what i know....

TE stands for "Total Efficiency", a concept that represents the ultimate response to the two main challenges of the sport of fishing: casting and retrieving. For the first time indeed, Shimano's Super Free System (SF) and High Efficiency Gearing ("HEG") are married in one reel. For more info kindly visit the link below and get your Calcutta.

Dropper Loop (Simpulan Dropper)

A better method of forming a loop, or loops, in the line above the sinker is to use the old Dropper Loop. This draws into a knot that stands out at right angles to the line.
If desired, the loops can be made long enough to have a hook set on them. And once again, this is not a good practice unless the fish are biting-mad, which they rarely are.

-Form a loop in the line.
-Take hold of one side of the loop, and make 6 or more turns around the line itself.
-This is the tricky part - keep open the point where the turns, or twists, are being made.
-Take hold of the other side of the loop, and pull it through the centre opening. use a finger in this loop so that it is not lost.
-Hold this loop between the teeth. Pull gently on both ends of the line, making the turns gather and pack down on either side of the loop.
-Draw up the knot by pulling the lines as tightly as possible. The turns will make the loop stand at right angles to the line.

I always use this loop for leader line to put more hooks at the leader line. Try it!!

Shimano Stella® STL-10000FA (10000SW) and STL-20000FA (20000SW) Spinning Reels

At the first time, I'm a bit confuse with the code. I think in US or western region they use "FA" code while in Asia region they use "SW" instead. Please advise me if I'm wrong. That's what I think la.... Anyway both come with same specification and built for tough and strong. But I think the colour a bit different for both region... The Stella® 10000FA (10000SW) can turn the heads of the toughest opponents. If it's fishing wrecks for grouper and amberjacks or pursuing the bigger class of silver kings, this reel can make every fishing day a memorable one. The Twin Disk Drag makes any gamefish battle a smooth one. The Stella® 20000FA (20000SW) is the big boy of the family offering anglers the best spinning reel on the market of its size. This reel can really lower the boom on the likes of mid-size tuna, big trevally, and sailfish and white marlin. With the bigger spool for added line capacity and direct drive mechanism offering loads of winding power, the STL 20000FA is the reel to look to.
