Shimano Curado E Low Profile Baitcasting Reel CU300E


Shimano Curado E Low Profile Baitcasting Reel CU300E


Winner of the 2008 ICAST New Product Showcase Awards for Best of Show and Best Freshwater Reel!

The high performance Curado reel is ultra smooth, makes effortless casts, and is available in a 7.0:1 high speed, 5.0:1 power versions.

For light bass lures and jigs, and also on the saltwater flats for redfish and sea trout, the CU50E/CU51E feature seven bearings - a shielded A-RB anti-rust bearing, five shielded stainless steel ball bearings, and a A-RG roller clutch bearing. An aluminum frame, A7075 aluminum Magnumlite spool and graphite sideplates, these new Curado reels are all about super lightweight - they weigh only 6.9-ounces, and smoothness with strategically placed bearings.

The CU50E/CU51E have 6.4:1 gear ratios and will retrieve in 25-inches of line per crank. Rated for use with monofilament, fluorocarbon and PowerPro braided lines, they will hold from 105 yards of 10-pound mono, and up to 80 yards of 40-pound PowerPro.

The 200 size is smaller than the previous Curado 100D but holds the same amount of line as the previous 200DHSV. Compact and lightweight with the heart and power of a large reel.
