I only used Calcutta 200GTB's for the longest time till I tried the cores, and now im sold. I still use my GTB's for fishing big trout at rigs, and winter time reds, but the cores r my go to reels. Nothing wrong with the Chroni or curodo, but didn't seem near as smooth or solid than the Cores. JMO.

You must ain't never used a Calais.
