robster80 Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 anyone still fish the 100d or 200d curados? i never owned one but see them pop up in classifieds from time to time and have thought about tryin one whenever a good deal comes along. the E and I series are two of my favorite reels Quote
HookdUP Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 I own the dpv (5.1) and dhsv 7.1 models ... And like them both .. They have to me most of the good features of new tackle technology and the good of the old technology ... I use them for my smaller swimbait reel and for top waters etc .. Smooth .. Strong .. Solid aluminum ... Just a little less smooth than one my e series or even the i series ... I'm kinda a curado ***** ... u can buy them for a good price .. If U want a small ree or have small hands don't get it ... Quote
Delaware Valley Tackle Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 There are a lot of these still in service. I've got a few on thee bench right now. The 100's are a nice size Quote
Super User scaleface Posted January 27, 2015 Super User Posted January 27, 2015 I still use them and plan on for many more years. Quote
Super User Jrob78 Posted January 27, 2015 Super User Posted January 27, 2015 I've got 2 100D's still in rotation. They are awesome little reels. I would take a 100D over a 50E every day of the week, and I like the 50E. Quote
Basswhippa Posted January 28, 2015 Posted January 28, 2015 The most over built and supposedly toughest of all Curados. Never owned one, but son has a couple of Citica D's. The battleship of low profile Shimanos. Quote

I would take a 100D over a 50E every day of the week, and I like the 50E. ×2 I still use my D's and they are still smooth after many years. I can't say that about any shimano casting reels I've owned since. Quote
fisherrw Posted January 28, 2015 Posted January 28, 2015 any one got one for sale?? i am looking to buy one. Quote
SenkoGuru Posted January 28, 2015 Posted January 28, 2015 I have and use four Curado D's and they are built like a tank and very nice reels. They are still going strong. Quote

KevO Posted January 28, 2015 Posted January 28, 2015 I still have 2 200d's. They are great and I've never had any problems with them. I need to send them off to get cleaned though its been a while. Quote
jignfule Posted January 29, 2015 Posted January 29, 2015 I've got a 101D. It's the least expensive reel I own, but has always given me great service, just keep them cleaned and oiled. Quote
VolFan Posted January 29, 2015 Posted January 29, 2015 I have three 200Ds that I use for regular small swimbait service. They are tanks. Quote
zelmo Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 There are a lot of these still in service. I've got a few on thee bench right now. The 100's are a nice size Hey Mike - you already sent my six 101D's back to me! Quote
Delaware Valley Tackle Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 Haha I know, this is yet another batch. Several more on the way. It's funny like that. Lots of times I get several of the same reels in from different guys. Quote
