The Curado DC casting reel is Shimano’s most advanced Curado ever produced. It’s built on the platform that has made the Curado name synonymous with durability and versatility among offshore anglers. However, the Curado DC CUDC150HG adds Shimano’s new Digital Control Braking system. The DC Braking system uses a completely sealed microcomputer that analyzes the spool speed 1,000 times per second, then automatically applies the precise braking to achieve maximum casting distance while preventing backlash. No matter the wind conditions, weather, or lure weight, four easy adjustments on the side plate allow the angler to quickly and definitively “set and forget” the brakes and let the reel do the work. This remarkable trouble-free casting comes on top of the other great features in the Shimano Curado DC. The Hagane body is made of a lightweight CI4+ carbon alloy that’s rigid and durable for saltwater casting while the X-Ship pinion gear support maintains alignment even when you have a 200-lb. fighter on the line. And, of course, you can count on smooth Shimano drag performance from the cross carbon design. Enjoy trouble-free casting anytime, anyplace with a Curado DC from Tackle Direct. And we mean that – we ship everywhere around the globe because we know going after the perfect catch knows no boundaries.
