| Winner of the 2008 ICAST New Product Showcase Awards for Best of Show and Best Freshwater Reel!
The newly enhanced Shimano Curado E line of Baitcasting Reels is smaller, lighter, smoother and stronger. Smaller than the originals they still hold the same amount of line and are jam packed with features. Shimano has increased the fish fighting strength through the High Efficiency Gearing. The 1 piece Aluminum Frame and Sideplate working with advanced componentry eliminate flex in the drivetrain. The newly designed Variable Brake System uses centrifugal force to aid in controlling the cast as opposed to traditionally used magnets. The resulting cast has more consistent spool speed, greater casting distance and less backlash. With additional features: Dartainium Drag, Super Stopper II, Disengaging Levelwind System and Quickfire Ii Clutch Bar, the Shimano Curado E is the Baitcasting Reel to own. |
