Shimano Curado DC casting reel range: digital control braking system, the i-DC4 technology! The ultimate tool for focusing solely on fishing.
Cast management by i-DC4 technology: this is a spool braking system that automatically adjusts spool speed for precise, backlash-free casts.
The Curado DC integrates other advanced technologies, such as the HAGANE aluminium frame for optimal rigidity, MicroModule gears for smooth retrieval, and the SVS Infinity system ensuring precise cast control. The S3D spool reduces vibrations, while the Cross Carbon drag guarantees consistent power.
Suited to various techniques, these casting reels are a reference in the world of lure fishing in pursuit of pike, perch, zander, catfish, etc.
Choose a reel suited to your rod, that is to say a reel that will balance the rod, but also allow you to cast the lures intended for the rod's power rating.
For a casting reel, the crucial point is the spool's rotation capacity. The smoother the rotation and the lower the resistance to rotation, the further you will be able to cast and with lighter lure weights. It is therefore important to look carefully at the number and quality of bearings in the reel.
Another important point is the retrieve ratio. A standard ratio is 75-80cm of line retrieved per crank. You will therefore need to choose the ratio of your reel according to the fishing techniques you wish to use.
