The Curado reel family has existed for years and is rightly appreciated by anglers worldwide. Each version has offered an enviable balance between cost and performance, and the Curado 300/301 is no different. Designed for large lures, especially high-resistance crankbaits that require greater power, the Curado 300/301 is a robust powerhouse you can always rely on.
There are many variants in the Curado family, but if you are looking for a larger baitcasting reel to handle big lures and fish, the Curado 300/301 is the right choice. If you specialize in big fish, don't overlook the 300; it's a beast! Packed with some of Shimano's best technologies and designed with a low profile that fits perfectly on the rod, you'll feel right at home with a 300/301. They cast great, feel solid and smooth, and fight like demons when the pressure is on.
All Curado 300/301 models feature a sturdy HAGANE aluminum body finished in matte black. But don't be fooled by the understated look (beautifully matched with any rod), inside is a drivetrain up to the toughest challenge. X-SHIP technology delivers powerful winding performance and improves rotation smoothness. The inclusion of a powerful Cross Carbon Drag tells you everything you need to know about the power these reels possess. As for casting, the vibration-reducing S3D is controlled by Shimano's proven VBS technology, easy to adjust and simple to use.
