logan123 Posted April 22, 2020 Posted April 22, 2020 I have a sc Legend bass tournament and a sc legend walleye and need a reel for them. I tried a Abu graces c4 but its absolute junk. I love my Curado but it is too big. This will go on a medium weight rod. Price range is unlimited. Quote
Nelson Delaney Posted April 22, 2020 Posted April 22, 2020 Check out the lews custom lite. So far a really solid reel for me Quote

Super User DitchPanda Posted April 22, 2020 Super User Posted April 22, 2020 Abu Garcia round reels are junk? Huh that's weird I have one that's 25 years old that's caught thousands of catfish and redfish with no problems. Guess I should throw it away now that I know how bad it sucks. Quote

Send it to me and I'll properly dispose of it. Quote

You tried a round reel abu and somehow that wasn't too big, it was just junk but the Curado is too big? Quote
Super User FishTank Posted April 23, 2020 Super User Posted April 23, 2020 If your budget is unlimited..... Daiwa Steez SV TWS. There is pretty much nothing this reel can't handle, smooth, light and handle anything from about 1/8oz to 3/4oz easily. Quote

haggard Posted April 23, 2020 Posted April 23, 2020 Curado felt big to me too (not saying that's bad). Try the Curado 70 (71) or Bantam. Quote
logan123 Posted April 23, 2020 Author Posted April 23, 2020 (edited) I am sorry for criticizing Abu but I have had many top of the line models which have been so underwhelming for the price. Shimano have been great. I will try a steez and lews and see how they are. thanks for the input! 21 hours ago, garroyo130 said: What are you fishing for?

The Curado was a 300 EJ so while it works I want something a little smaller Edited April 23, 2020 by logan123 typo Quote
