Curado or Revo STX high speed?
dont trust everything u hear i also bought into how great of a reel the stx is and it didnt even come close to what most say i heard it casted a mile even out casted the steez but [20 years of using a baitcaster] i could not get it to cast any where close to what people said it would do another big drawback for me was once i bought my mg and used a lite lite reel everything else felt super heavy i had my curado on arruis xl rod which weights like 5oz [very heavy rod] and had the stx on a loomis [light weight rod] and the stx still felt very heavy the few good things i can say about the stx is it is a very palmable reel and that drag is awesome

Curado or Revo STX high speed?

Chronarch 51mg vs Curado 100DSV
i have 2mgs had a curado which also a great reel i dont think the curado holds much more line then the mg maybe what 20 yards that is a really good price for the mg and st croix and should make a pretty light combo
