Shimano Curado 200 E5

Had a few queries about the baitcaster used in a few freshwater trip posts. It's the new Shimano Curado 200 E5, the next generation, small body-big cap, low profile baitcaster.

This baby has the body of a size 100 but boasts a line cap of a size 200! Check out the specs:

Line Cap (lbs/yds): 8/180, 10/155, 14/110

Gear Ratio: 5.0:1

Line retrieve per crank: 21 inches

Weight: 7.6oz

Bearings: 6BB, 1RB

Max drag: 12lb

Small, cute reel with tough muscle. Oh, and did I mention the moss-green colour on the reel actually 'changes' colour like a chameleon to a darker shade of green on different lighting?
