What makes the core more saltwater ready than the Mg 50?

Nothing now that we have upgraded the 50MG. The CORE has more power, better freespool and sealed ARB bearings.

What is the line capacity going to be? Will it be similar to the Mg50?

Is the physical size the same as the 50MG...also do you feel that this is a better reel than a 100 series Calais?

Field Testing
Pass a few out and we'll try them, then give U guys ( Shimano), some feedback. Form a list of users and have someone in good standing, pick some of us out.........send them USPS.
This won't get anywhere! It's off the top of whats left of my head!!

Cantar Rods
Any info on these rods and when tackle shops will stock them? Also curious about the Teramar series rods----the NE series are available but the Southwest can't be found, at least that's been my experience. TC4 construction and eight pages in the 2006 rod catalog and forgotten!

The size of the CORE is similar to the Calais 100A and the Chronarch 100B. It was an initial design prototype for the Chronarch 100B that we saved for a later date. Its hard to desribe in words but it fits in the hand really, really nice.
The Southwest Teramar rods were discontinued last year. We only off the West Coast and SE Teramar rods. The new Cantar rods are the replacements for the SW Teramars.
The CORE reels should be available later this month. The Cumara rods will also be available later this month. Any shop that carries the Crucial rods and Chronarch reels should have both the Core and Cumara rods.
