Shimano Calcutta TX 200

[big_george]

G,day fisho,s
Has any one out there in ausfish land got or had any thing to do with the new TX calcutta.I.ve herd they,re pretty fn good.I/m happy with my chronarchs with Erskins smoooth drag washers.But looking for a reel to give me the edge on the faust 50 pound plus girls.Or looking for a drag washer with more surface area in the chrony,have tried leather,worked for a while.Have herd that the gears in the TX are more robust and the drag surface area is large. Don,t have access to be able to view one out here in the dust around dubbo.Looking forward to replies
regards big george

Big_George,

Don't you mean the TE??

I've never heard of it before you mentioned it. I saw it in the Mo catalogue. Calcutta CT200 2 ball bearing[$318] vs TE200 6 ball bearings[$590].
