longrange11b Posted December 27, 2011 Posted December 27, 2011 Just picked up a couple curado 51E's from TW for $109.99. Just wanted to see what kind of setup's other people have with this reel and what type of fishing they typically do with their setup. Thanks. Quote
Super User Hooligan Posted December 27, 2011 Super User Posted December 27, 2011 I have 51's on everything from Cumara's and GLX to NRX. Some Crankbait rods thrown in, too. I use them for jigs, plastics, squarebills, shorties; in short I have them on rods and use them to catch fish. I've even got a couple tuned for tiny jerkbaits, topwaters, and jigs. (3/64 to 1/4) Quote
QUIENYO Posted December 27, 2011 Posted December 27, 2011 I did the same last week. Mine is set up for plastics and light jigs. It is on a Shimano vct70mh fast (I know, an antique). I have 50# Pline braid on it, but may try floro in the near future. I mainly shore fish for largemouth. Quote
Red Posted December 28, 2011 Posted December 28, 2011 I have one and put it on a 7' Med rod, I was planning to use it for light, 1/8, T-rigs. I have not used it yet. I was also considering using it for throwing small cranks like a Bandit 200 with 10lb line. What do you think? Cliff Quote
