Shimano CURADO DC Worth It In 2024? LONG TERM Review

[@TUFFBASS]

🟩 Shimano Curado DC: geni.us/CuradoDC150

[@anthonyarkadia9760]

I use mine the the StCroix Musky 7'6" , it has never disappointed me! Landed my best large mouth ever @11.6lbs. I bought it for a fishing trip to Florida, and everyday the winds where at 20knots. Not once did I ever have a backlash! That bass had not chance, I landed him in 15 secs..

[@TUFFBASS]

Thanks for the comment! I got a mojo muskynpaired with a 401 Tranx and love that combo! Glad you like the feel, it is definitely a beast! Remember to sub if you aren’t yet bro!

[@jemtechandmore2101]

The best bait caster i ever had, totally abuse my dc that you can not imagine.. dropped in the water hit on the rocks, dropped it countless times but still working like brand new, had a bird nest on this 4 times just because of me being wreckless… it’s expensive but it’s worth the investment.

[@TUFFBASS]

Oh heck yea dude! Mine went deep in the mud once actually in one of my first videos! And it still worked like new! Thanks for commenting and I hope you are subbed brotha

[@shanevl85]

That's the bit I actually wanted to know. Shimano gear is all I have ever used and it always does exactly what it is spose to. Was just unsure about the DC thing and saltwater abuse from a clumsy pro fisherman. Well decion now made

[@tonyvega6697]

I have the slx dc & the curado dc both amazing reels! Not once have i been disappointed. Ive fell in the rivers i fish and got them wet and dirty but they always get the job done nice and smoothly 👌 its worth the money

[@TUFFBASS]

Oh yea you know it!

[@christopher87264]

Is the curado worth the price jump over the slx if I’m just starting out?

[@TUFFBASS]

I would say so

[@ericchen6704]

I own several bait casting reels and this one did not disappoint. It is lightweight and a very responsive reel

[@TUFFBASS]

Oh yea very true, I have had mine for 4 years and bow I am officially retiring it!

[@robertbrandywine]

Why, is it broken? @@TUFFBASS

[@TUFFBASS]

Epic background for fishing reel vid !!!!!!

[@TUFFBASS]

Thanks! Im in snowy wisconsin!!!

[@Cowboy_M-T1]

Bro the 200 zig is what I have and it works great if you can find the curado rod for it do that do it is a great med heavy rod. Also goes good with the aesthetic of the reel.

[@TUFFBASS]

Ill definitely see if i can find a curado rod! Thanks for dropping a comment!

[@The_Striper_Hunt]

What if it accidentally falls in the water? Im looking to get into fresh water and i kinda want this curado as my first reel.

[@TUFFBASS]

It is 100% waterproof so no issues, get it as wet as you want

[@The_Striper_Hunt]

@TUFFBASS Thanks to you, I just ordered this reel, and I'm pairing it up with 7.3 St. croix tournament bass workhorse🔥🤙

[@TUFFBASS]

@@The_Striper_Huntsorry for the mega late reply, hope you have been loving your reel !!

[@MartellOutdoors]

I have the cheaper one SLX DC but I just bought the curado DC 200 and I love both of them

[@TUFFBASS]

I am hinting of grabbing an SLX DC for testing! I love my curado dc and think the SLX will make a great adddition to the family!

[@MartellOutdoors]

@TUFFBASS honestly for the money you can't beat the SLX and that's 100% I have had it for a year now zero issues and I dropped it in the water twice

[@TUFFBASS]

@@MartellOutdoors dang i will definitely pick one up!

[@MartellOutdoors]

@TUFFBASS yes I owned the Shamano Scropion too but I didn't like that one. And the drag sucked on that one. I don't know if I had just a crappy one but definitely SLX and Curado I would go for.

[@GFWoodchuck]

​@@MartellOutdoorsdrags are super easy to replace. And only cost a few bucks for top of the line material.

[@fade_kp4540]

Still worth it for me! It’s one of the best out there!

[@TUFFBASS]

Dang right dude!

[@DS-pv2bj]

I fish with the exact set up lol. I love my St Croix mojo bass rods as much as my Shimano reels

[@TUFFBASS]

Oh yea it is a great combo! I’ll be trying out Daiwa soon!

[@DS-pv2bj]

@@TUFFBASS I have the Tatula spinning reel on a st croix mojo ;) love that reel too ;) I can’t wait to try a bfs reel for trout

[@TUFFBASS]

@@DS-pv2bjoh heck yea! I’ll be getting the Aldabra bfs soon. Remember to subscribe if you aren’t yet!

[@krispyk.1786]

Im looking for a reel that can handle high casting speeds with a stupid long rod (9”6’) does the digital chip handle pretty well when you load your rod and send your crank flying into space?

[@TUFFBASS]

Oh yes it definitely handles that great. I have used it to bomb swimbaits into infinite! You will love it!

[@krispyk.1786]

@@TUFFBASS fantastic! I work at a local fishing retailer so after seeing we carry this gem I was intrigued what the real life performance was like

[@TUFFBASS]

Oh heck yea dude

[@yoursauce6306]

Can it be used on heavy actions rods like 7’4 heavy rods. Is it good for frogs and fishing in vegetation?

[@TUFFBASS]

Yea it sure is! remember to subwcribe if you aren’t yet!

Which is a good rod for it ? Been thinking on buying it , but don’t know what kind of rod will gave me a good match with it

[@TUFFBASS]

amzn.to/3x9c9MC right here bro, medium heavy fast!

[@jannikjacobsen4364]

What rod?

[@TUFFBASS]

The old model of St. Croix Mojo Bass MH fast action!

[@tvcarlosgamer2839]

Is the scorpion dc better?

[@TUFFBASS]

In my opinion no. But definitely a good alternative!

[@tvcarlosgamer2839]

@@TUFFBASSwhat are the differences?

[@TUFFBASS]

Ah, the age-old question! The differences are as unique as each snowflake in a blizzard.

[@ronmatson5502]

I paid 130 $ for a baitcaster 20 years ago at 8 years old. " so is the price worth it" Ok reviews over youve said enough hahahaha.

[@TUFFBASS]

Love the cheap dc! Thanks for commenting dude!

[@adrianvargas1530]

Does anyone know if DC technology is suited for Saltwater?

[@TUFFBASS]

I am not sure what model of BC would be suitable for saltwater, I think the fishing reel I reviewed most recently is saltwater ready, and it is DC

[@samiraedora3400]

the only different 150 and 200 size is it only spool?

[@sethison2727]

I’ve been wondering this myself

[@johntorres2362]

Apakah ini menggunakan battery??

[@TUFFBASS]

No battery :)

[@zxhce3351]

You don’t need to out your thumb on the line ?

[@TUFFBASS]

You still should have it on the spool when the lure hits the water to make sure you Don’t get any backlash.

[@davidwalter2107]

Song??

[@TUFFBASS]

Not sure

[@edgarchavez4714]

What about the daiwa costal tws

[@TUFFBASS]

I have never used it so I can't tell you, sorry

[@JFBfishing]

I heard it doesn’t reel that smooth

[@TUFFBASS]

It is great honestly, after a few years the reelibg is less smooth but not bad
