sean0920 Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 anybody know who makes a light finesse type baitcaster in LEFT hand retreive? thanks Quote
DEbassman17 Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 shimano curado 201e7, i use mine mainly for finesse but do throw 1/4 oz rattletraps on it from time to time. BPS pro lite, and if your rich, get a daiwa ito alphas, or pixy, or pixillas, those reels look insane. Quote
Super User Jimzee Posted January 12, 2009 Super User Posted January 12, 2009 How much money you willing to part with? Good to see another Mountie on here. Quote

You really want to see a "collection", dig back through some of RedlineRobert's posts. I am only the Padawan, he is the Master. Quote
DEbassman17 Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 Thanks Man I'll be looking forward to it. Redlineroberts collection is rediculous! haha have a good one. -Jason Quote
sean0920 Posted January 13, 2009 Author Posted January 13, 2009 i like the bps finesse but i think it only comes in right hand. i like the curados i just got two of them last week, the 201dhsv. i didnt know shimano made smaller versions Quote
DEbassman17 Posted January 13, 2009 Posted January 13, 2009 sean, dude you have gotta get the shimano curado e, they just came out a month- month and a half ago, i guarantee you love it. They are tiny! haha but they have the same line capacity as the 200 series... good luck -Jason Quote
KevO Posted January 13, 2009 Posted January 13, 2009 If you want a new curado for finesse fishing, you should just step up to the chronarch 50mg, a better reel for the same price as the new curado E. Quote
Pantera61 Posted January 13, 2009 Posted January 13, 2009 There are really only 2 choices for finesse baitcasting: 1. Daiwa Pixy if you're really into pushing the envelope 2. Daiwa Presso end of discussion http://www.bassresource.com/fishing-forum/Templates/Forum/default/cool.gif Quote
Super User Alpster Posted January 13, 2009 Super User Posted January 13, 2009 It's hard to beat the Shimano 51Mg. I have 5 of the right handers and they handle light baits with the best of them. JMHO Ronnie Quote
Hooked_On_Bass Posted January 13, 2009 Posted January 13, 2009 I agree with the Shimano 50/51 Mg. I have a few myself and they are fantastic reels! Quote
Super User Raul Posted January 13, 2009 Super User Posted January 13, 2009 Daiwa Liberto Pixy Daiwa Presso Daiwa Sol Daiwa Alphas Type F Daiwa Alphas Itö Chronarch Mg Curado 100/101D Scorpion 1000/1001 Scorpion 1000/1001 Mg Conquest 50/51 Any of them is a finesse baitcaster. If I were on the hunt for a finesse baicaster none beats the price of the Chronarch 50/51 Mg fot $187@ TW. Quote
21farms Posted January 13, 2009 Posted January 13, 2009 i got a shimano chronarch 50MG a couple of months back and i finally took it out to the local lake to try out last week. i could toss 1/4 oz. trout lures further with it than my spinning outfit. the other bank fishermen around me were amazed and several came up to ask me about what i was using. when i let them hold it (mounted on a shimano crucial CRC-D70M) to see how light it was, it was ooohs and ahhhs all around. the left version is the 51MG and tackle warehouse has 'em on sale. highly recommended. if you're on a budget, i have two of the bass pro shops prolite finesse reels and they're surprisingly good. IMHO, the B version (which BPS is currently clearancing at $70) is better than the new C version. Quote
