BigMoneyGrip Posted May 19, 2012 Posted May 19, 2012 I have a Curado 50E and was wondering how it would compare to the Core. I know the Core is lighter, but is there $150 more worth of difference? Thank You, Scott. Quote
Super User Hi Salenity Posted May 19, 2012 Super User Posted May 19, 2012 Other than one is a 7.0 my core50 won't do anything my 50e wont do. That said if you have a core 50 you won't use your 50e Quote
Super User Raul Posted May 19, 2012 Super User Posted May 19, 2012 Well, 150 sounds like a lot of money but you quickly forget once you´ve put your hands on a magnesium reel. Quote
Super User 00 mod Posted May 19, 2012 Super User Posted May 19, 2012 I love my core 50, and I have 3 50e's. Tough decision, one you will have to make! See if you can fish with someone's you might know! We only live an hour away, if you are ever in Memphis, I have one you can fish! Jeff Quote
BigMoneyGrip Posted May 19, 2012 Author Posted May 19, 2012 Jeff, I'd love to take you up on that offer! Quote
Super User 00 mod Posted May 19, 2012 Super User Posted May 19, 2012 Well the offer stands, now until whenever! Bring a 50e, or I will bring any of mine! Just let me know! jeff Quote
BigMoneyGrip Posted May 20, 2012 Author Posted May 20, 2012 Jeff, my schedule is more than flexible. You tell me where and when. Scott. Quote

jeb2 Posted May 20, 2012 Posted May 20, 2012 I have one of each, both with upgraded bearings, Orange Seals. Except for the weight thing, I don't think one is better than the other. Both are great little reels. The question is really if YOU think it's worth more to have the same basic reel (performance and feel wise) in a little lighter form. Quote
BigMoneyGrip Posted May 20, 2012 Author Posted May 20, 2012 That was kinda what I was thinking, John. Hopefully, I can test drive Jeff's and go from there. Thanks. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted May 20, 2012 Super User Posted May 20, 2012 Other than one is a 7.0 my core50 won't do anything my 50e wont do. That said if you have a core 50 you won't use your 50e I have my Curado 50E on another rig, so I use it quite a bit. However, I still agree with the premise, the Core is VERY special! Quote
