SHIMANO says its latest Curado baitcaster series is better than ever with the popular reel’s design and performance characteristics taken to a new level.
X-Ship is a big inclusion. Supporting the pinion gear at both ends with two of the five SA-RB bearings the reel comes with, a bigger drive gear and increased gearing efficiency results in ultra light rotation of the swept aluminium handle — even when hooked up.
Another new feature is the Stable Spool Design or S3D, whereby balanced and uniformly thin wall construction throughout significantly reduces spool vibration to deliver an incredibly smooth feeling when casting or retrieving. Like its predecessors, this is a sweet casting reel.
An Escape Hatch sideplate grants easy access to the SVS Infinity Braking System for making adjustments when lure sizes and fishing conditions change. The Cross Carbon drag can be pushed to 5.5 kgs. Available in high or performance gearing in right or left-hand wind.
