Shimano Curado DC 201/200 Baitcast

The Curado DC 200/201 is a technologically advanced, low-profile baitcasting reel that features Shimano's exclusive Digital Control drag system (i-DC4) for automatic control of the spool's rotation speed during the cast.
The Curado DC is a great addition to one of Shimano's most popular baitcasting reels and has the advantage of Digital Control, which uses a microcomputer to control the speed of the spool's rotation during the cast. And when you're fishing you'll appreciate how solid the Curado DC feels and how comfortable it fits in the palm of your hand. The Curado DC is available in a standard size 150 and also in this slightly larger size 200, with different gear ratios.

If you've never experienced Shimano's Digital Control technology, you really should. The reel is easily adjusted with an external dial and can be set to a completely free position or one of three different settings - 1 for braid or mono, 2 for fluoro and 3 for more difficult casting situations, such as in strong winds. Once set, the microcomputer makes nanosecond adjustments to the spool speed during the cast to prevent kickback, maximize casting performance and let you concentrate on your fishing with greater joy. But the Curado DC has so much more to offer than just digital control.

The Hagane Body is light, solid and fits naturally in your hand. The combination of Micro Module Gear and X-Ship gives you the smoothness and power you feel when using the reel and the Cross Carbon Drag ensures you are always in control of hard fighting fish. Finally, the S3D spool allows the digital control to perform at its best by reducing spool wobble when spinning. If you want to take your fishing pleasure and ability to the next level, the Curado DC is for you.
