Super informative video man! What gear ratio are u using? Im about the throw together my first swimbait combo with the irod genesis 3. I see some people saying to go 6:1 and others 8:1.
Finally this weekend I broke my first curado k after 6 years of use. The last 2-3 years I only use it in the winter fishing a power plant on the Mississippi. Tried to ignore it freezing and keep using it and finally gave out. I’m a musky guy and run all 4-500 tranx, but those curado k’s are the best value per dollar in the game, just like the bigger tranx. I’ve even used a 200 curado k with light braid to a leader and thrown little trout baits on it and still worked pretty well
How about the (Abu Garcia revo5 X "Winch"), for budget option. about 100 bucks.🤔, have also the 260 bucks (Abu Garcia revo5 winch) in black and red, but not sure if i could recomend them have only tested for 2024 season. Good informativ video 👍🏼👍🏼
The reason the shimano are smoother. Is because they are over greased when they are brand new. Diawa reels are under greased. I own both. I'll take Diawa over shimano. Their braking system is a lot better.
The okuma Komodo SS and the Abu Garcia turo S in my opinion or some of the most bulletproof reels I've ever used. My Abu in the 50 size I've thrown my manifold spec 550 over 100 hours reel still functioning perfectly fine. I wish I bought those toro S instead of the cardoff blew through five of them in 3 years between my buddy and I and we weren't even throwing Bates over 10 oz. 115 bucks MSRP when they came out. I'm interested in trying some of the newer 13 fishing concepts they're basically copies of the Komodo SS. Just with brass gearing and pin though they claim higher drag pressures.
Just got to this video and I want to say I 100% agree I’ve used mine for heavy frogging big soft swimbaits and glides it does it all very good video breaking it down
The reel opinions aside please don’t tell people to play with the fish once he’s hooked up like what.. if that bass has any freaking size to it like if you even might think it’s a big one just put ur rod tip down and crank and don’t stop until you flip it or net it!!!I can’t tell u how many giants get lost because the guy did anything but freaking rod tip down and winedonem bubba!!😤

I personally really like the Lew’s Super Duty 300, it feels like a regular reel has an awesome drag and holds a ton of line.
Yup Curado K is top dawg love my 200’s I got the 301k early this year and it’s a beast for the big baits

I had my 201K for almost 2 years. I love it! I still like it over my 201M! Both with Gomexus handles! Big baits all day!
The new Curado 200M outcasts the K. I did the upgrade and happy with the M's.

What line do you have on that curado k
I haven’t fished the 200 yet. But i dont think you need anything more than a 200 for most baits. I think 200 is the perfect reel
The Shimano Curado K is basically the AK of fishing reels. It’s a reliable workhorse.
Komodo 300, tranx 300, revo toro beast. My faves for big baits
The reason the shimano are smoother. Is because they are over greased when they are brand new. Diawa reels are under greased. I own both. I'll take Diawa over shimano. Their braking system is a lot better.
Perfect timing. I was stuck debating if i should pick up the 300k or jus use my 200k now i have my answer.
Good video!
Get the Washington guys back on the pod
