Toronto Sportsmen’s Show Tackle Porn: Shimano Curado E

Saving the best reel for last from the Shimano booth at the Toronto Sportsmens Show. Stay tuned for reels from Quantum and Daiwa!

Shimano Curado E

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.

New 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.

Price: around $180-250 depending on model

    Awesome reel, although I’m not sold on the green colour – this will be the the next Shimano I buy!

    Core Mg was pretty damn sweet IMO. $350 though!

    Yeah they are really nice, but I need a bigger more powerful reel!

    Glitter is nice, but I prefer spice.

    don’t get me wrong, I love my Quantums and they are in a lower price range typically, but the Curodo’s have a great reputation!

    Honestly after holding each one of these reels in my hand the only one I would buy is the core, but i’m not willing to pay 300 bucks for it.
