Shimano Curado 300 E Casting Reels - $249.99
High speed, high power, high line capacity and low profile. The Shimano Curado 300E blends all of these qualities into one reel. The Curado 300E delivers large reel performance in a comfortable low profile reel.
The 300E is only slightly larger than the Curado 200 reel. Shimano has made use of a low profile style frame and widened the base of the reel to accommodate the deeper and wider spool. The higher line capacity of the 300E allows an angler to make longer casts with heavier lines or braid and gives an angler the ability to handle the long runs of larger fish. The High Efficiency Gearing on the Curado 300 provides fish fighting power, a high speed gear ratio and extra torque for all day chucking and winding. All the features of the HEG system are made possible by the oversized drive and pinion gears. Shimano also made sure that the drag system on the Curado 300 matched it's other design traits. The Dartanium Drag on the Curado 300 provides a wide range of settings and generates 15 pounds of fish fighting drag.

Comments: This is by far the best reel i've ever owned. Casts smooth, very light, just a genuinely great product. Perfect for swimbaits, but also a great jig or crankbait reel. Very versatile. The best reel shimano makes for the money...
From: Chris: St. George, UT
Comments: Recently took one of these to tackle the salmon in the South Island rivers of New Zealand. With twenty pound braid and a 22g - 28g spinner, long accurate casting was a joy. Under pressure this reel never faltered. The drag/clutch was as smooth as you could want and worked a treat. It created a real feel of confidence when handling big fish.
From: Ray: Melbourne, Australia
Comments: my favorite casting reel for our big Pelagics and Barramundi.
From:Jack: Darwin, N.T. Australia
