ArcticCat500 Posted July 15, 2008 Posted July 15, 2008 I have 2 200 and Im courious if anyone can tell me how much smaller the 100 will be in size. A pic will really help. TY Quote
Super User islandbass Posted July 15, 2008 Super User Posted July 15, 2008 If you're talking about the curado e. it is goiong to be shorter (vertically) than a curado 100d. Now that is great news. A reel that is actually a 100 sized reel but yet has the line capacity of a 200. Yee ha!!!! 8-) Quote
Aaron Posted July 15, 2008 Posted July 15, 2008 The 200's are wider and taller than the 100's. That probably isn't much help but I don't have the reels with me where I can look at them. I don't have very large hands and the 200's are not at all uncomfortable for me to fish. I have two 200 and a 100. Quote
Super User islandbass Posted July 15, 2008 Super User Posted July 15, 2008 You're in luck. I have both. What measurements would you like me to compare? I'm not a photagrapher so if I took pics they might not be to scale, but I can take measurements. I can tell you that the 100s will look considerably smaller and definitely easier to palm as well. Both are awesome. I'd be more than happy to take measurements later this evening after work today. Quote
ArcticCat500 Posted July 15, 2008 Author Posted July 15, 2008 Thas kool, Thanks...if you do a side by side shot that'll work awsome. I just bought a new Loomis Spinnerbait rod and Im lookin for a fast retreive, I have the 200DHSV as we all know its 7.0:1 and the smaller 100DSV is 6.2:1...not being an expert Im not sure the 5 inches will make that much of a difference. but I do like the feel of the 200 in my hand, probably because Im use to using Garcia's Ambassadeur round casting reels. thnx Quote
21farms Posted July 15, 2008 Posted July 15, 2008 these are citica D's but they're the same size as the curado D's. hope this helps. Quote
ArcticCat500 Posted July 15, 2008 Author Posted July 15, 2008 rod-long, thank you man...thats a perfect shot....I guess the 100 is a bit more noticable in its smaller size....not sure she'd feel as comfortable....like I said Im still usta the Abus. TYVM Quote
Super User Raul Posted July 15, 2008 Super User Posted July 15, 2008 Try a 100 size reel, after that you 'll be in a rush to get rid of anything bigger. Quote
Super User islandbass Posted July 16, 2008 Super User Posted July 16, 2008 Looks like Rod Long beat me to the punch. Thanks! Quote
21farms Posted July 17, 2008 Posted July 17, 2008 Looks like Rod Long beat me to the punch. actually, i took those pics over a month ago because this exact same question came up before at another forum. i am totally jazzed about the new curado/citica 200E's...smaller than a 100DSV but with the line capacity of the 200D!
