Broke after 2 trips
May 29, 2022
Used the reel two times and it failed on the second trip...when I crank the handle it doesn't retrieve any line, and you can hear the gears on the inside clanking.

Very good all around saltwater reel. While being very lighter. Almost seems cheap but is a beast.
Pros
  • Very reliable reel. Gets used on all my seabass and fluke trips and light weight for its size.
Cons
  • Two many screws. I watch that haven’t loosen yet. The gearing and breaking system not as precise as my Calcutta conquest are transx. For the money a winner.

Good reel for the price. Been using it for ocean fluke and sea bass. Line capacity is also good. Got a little chip in the finish after light use.

Great new Product

I haven't fished this reel yet, but it's a very interesting, low profile, well built and put together reel that looks strong and would be useful in many applications with 25# of drag. I put 300 yds. of 20# power pro on it, so the capacity is good for anything I fish for.
Pros
  • Plenty of drag and line capacity
Cons
  • Non that I have found

Decent Reel, gets the job done.

I have read a couple other reviews about the clicker being loud. The reel I received, the clicker sound is non existent. Prevents backlash, but mine barley makes a noticeable audible difference.
Pros
  • Lightweight, seems strong.
Cons
  • Clicker, what clicker?

I agree with Marvin, this reel is a monster ! I loaded this reel with 20 lb braid,to fish for black seabass and fluke.while jigging I hooked into a 40 lb striper! This reel is awesome for its size. it's very smooth and has a loud clicker and very strong drag system.

Did the job!!

Even though I can’t fill it with that Japanese braid that’s really thin. It’s still did the job. Luckily I didn’t get spooled on this 28 lbs yellow tail!!

Pros
  • Sturdy, smooth, tons of drag, power handle
Cons
  • So far none

Specs are way off!
May 13, 2020
The reel feels solid and I do believe it has 30+ #'s of drag... Buuuuuuuut the line capacity is WAY OFF. I dont know what braid they used to get over 300 yds of 45#'s but I could barely get 190 yds of 40# braid. Very disappointing!!!
Pros
  • It feels good.
Cons
  • The lied about the line capacity.

This reel is a monster. The Titan Claw opened my eyes to Tica reels. I didn't even know they made them to be honest. The reel is versatile. I'll be using it for all types off saltwater applications, from deep water flounder jigging to chugging topwater plugs for Dolphin offshore. Ill update this review with pictures in the near future.

Love the reel
March 17, 2020
Love the reel so much that I had to buy a 2nd one. Both reel spooled with Power Pro 50lbs braided line, and both are paired up with Phenix Abyss PSX809 rods. Mainly using both setup for live bait fishing out here in the Bay Area, California for California/ Pacific Halibuts, Striped Bass, and Rock/ Ling Cod inshore and offshore saltwater fishing. The clicker on this reel is loud and a major plus. Fish on my angler bubbies #TeamFishGang
Pros
  • Well built, perfect size for large hands, sturdy, smooth casting and retrieve, loud clicker, holds enough braided line for in or offshore fishing, 33 lbs of drag (overkill 😂)

Slow Pitch Gem
December 2, 2019
I use the Tica TightenClaw for slow pitch in the Dry Tortuga’s and Pully Ridge. It’s light at 13 oz and has strong gears to pull in those big Groupers and Snappers. I like this type of reel for slow pitch because it easy. The thumb bar bottom to release and engage the spook and the level wind means I don’t have to use my other hand....I can keep it on the reel handle the whole time !!!!

Hi Mitchell, I would recommend no more than 50lb Braided line to use with the Tica TC301H Titanclaw TC Baitcasting Reel. Please let us know if theres anything else we can assist you with. Tight Lines.
