lk ozark Posted July 1, 2010 Posted July 1, 2010 I heard a rumor at a large ,well known outdoor store that a CORE size CURADO is going to be introduced at the ICAST show. Anyone else her any thing about this ? Quote
21farms Posted July 1, 2010 Posted July 1, 2010 he's probably referring to cal over at tackletour speculating that shimano may bring over their JDM scorpion 1000/1001 XT which is basically an alumimnum-framed core 50/51 MG. Quote
lk ozark Posted July 2, 2010 Author Posted July 2, 2010 Nope, I'm in St. Louis. But that is a possibility. Quote
tbird Posted July 2, 2010 Posted July 2, 2010 The aluminum model Core in a Curado is what I'm thinking is coming.Kinda like the Chronarch MG and the Curado 100D T Quote
Thefishy1 Posted July 2, 2010 Posted July 2, 2010 http://tackletog.com/cal/2010/06/27/icast-speculation-daiwa-shimano/ http://www.japantackle.com/Shimano/Shimano_Scorpion_XT_1000.htm Those two pretty much sum up the specualtion, now wether or not they actually bring it over is another story but I would put like a 90% chance that they will.

hitchhiker Posted July 2, 2010 Posted July 2, 2010 Depending on price, it might make me try a Shimano. Quote

Super User iceintheveins Posted July 14, 2010 Super User Posted July 14, 2010 I wish they would make a regular size Curado with a gear ratio in between the two they already have. Quote

Super User burleytog Posted July 15, 2010 Super User Posted July 15, 2010 I wish they would make a regular size Curado with a gear ratio in between the two they already have. Easy enough to purchase a 200E7 or 5, purchase Citica E gearing and replace. Quote

barroncooper Posted July 15, 2010 Posted July 15, 2010 hope it comes in 7 to 1 soon. i guess the core 7to1 gears would work in it. Quote
Super User burleytog Posted July 15, 2010 Super User Posted July 15, 2010 hope it comes in 7 to 1 soon. i guess the core 7to1 gears would work in it. There's 3" of IPT difference between the 6.4:1 Curado 50 and the 7.01:1 Core 50. Quote
Super User Dan: Posted July 15, 2010 Super User Posted July 15, 2010 You know what WOULD be great? A high end Shimano LP reel that has a decent amount of line capacity. Quote

There's 3" of IPT difference between the 6.4:1 Curado 50 and the 7.01:1 Core 50. interesting, i didn't look into it like that. I guess i was comparing to the 200 e. thanks for the info Quote
Super User Dan: Posted July 15, 2010 Super User Posted July 15, 2010 You know what WOULD be great? A high end Shimano LP reel that has a decent amount of line capacity. How much line do you need? More than 90 yards of 12lb test. I want something I can put a lot of 15-17lb test on. Quote

And I use 17 lb. fluorocarbon on it. Quote

I don't flip, and I rarely pitch; most of my fishing is comprised of making long casts off of our dock. Quote

Super User Big Bait Fishing Posted July 15, 2010 Super User Posted July 15, 2010 my opinion is to buy a Revo Premier , same or slightly lighter reel with all the line capacity you need , plus it is not fugly green !!! ;D 8-) plus the new Premiers are gonna have a 7.1 gearing !!! Quote
