I just got to test out my new Tatula this past Saturday after the lakes defrosted and it felt great. Great casting reel. I only fished for about an hour with it though. It figures that Shimano would release a new Curado after my purchase, I have always been a Shimano guy, but did not like their current line up so I bought the Tatula after a lot of research. The new Curado I looks very good though. I cannot wait to play with one of those.
