Offering the extreme proficiency of Shimano’s DC technology in a new size class, the Shimano Curado DC 200 Baitcasting Reels bring trouble free casting to a range of heavier tackle applications. The Curado DC 200 provides anglers up to 40% more line capacity than the original Curado DC for added versatility and performance with a wider range of techniques. Anglers can now experience the benefit of the Intelligent Digital Control Braking system (I-DC4) when throwing larger lures like swimbaits and magnum crankbaits, and while leveraging heavier line techniques. The I-DC4 unit provides anglers with four distinct settings to control how much braking the DC technology applies to the spool during the cast for ultimate control while minimizing backlashes when long-bombing casts or fishing in windy conditions. Other Shimano technologies that have come become mainstays to the Curado lineup such as the ultra-smooth and durable MicroModule Gear, along with the rugged Cross Carbon Drag offer the toughness and dependability anglers have come to expect from any reel bearing the name Curado.
