Curado 300/301 – The Powerful Low-Profile Baitcasting Reel
The Curado reel family has been around for years and rightly so. Every version has offered an enviable balance of cost and performance, and the largest-sized Curado 300/301 is no different. Designed for larger lures, especially high resistance crank baits where more cranking power is required, the Curado 300/301 is a tough powerhouse you can always trust.
Built for Big Lures and Big Fish
There are many variations of the Curado family, but if you are looking for a larger baitcasting reel to cope with big lures and big fish, the Curado 300/301 size is where it’s at. If you are a big fish specialist, don’t ignore the 300 – it’s a beast! Packed with some of Shimano’s top gear technology, and designed with a low-profile that sits snugly to the rod, you’ll instantly feel in control with a Curado 300/301. They cast great, feel solid and smooth, and fight like a demon when the pressure is on.
Strong and Reliable HAGANE Body
All Curado 300/301 models have a tough aluminium HAGANE Body finished in a matt black colour. But don’t be fooled by the understated appearance – which looks great on any rod – inside is a drive train built to match the toughest challenge.
Powerful Performance with Advanced Technologies
X-SHIP technology delivers powerful winding performance and enhances silky smooth rotation. The inclusion of a powerful Cross Carbon Drag tells you all you need to know about the power these winching machines possess. When it comes to casting, the vibration-reducing S3D is controlled by Shimano’s well-established VBS technology, which is simple to adjust and easy to use.
