How does it handle light stuff? Say from 1/4 to maybe 5/8? I have one of these just sitting here, new in the box, and a Edge 693 rod on the way. Recon the Curado will do it?

Thanks.

I throw weightless super fluke jrs on mine without issue. The right rod is the key to throwing the light stuff.

The reel can do it, like was said, paired with the right rod, and dependent on your ability you should be able to get down to a 1/8 if need be.

5/8? That reel will zing that bait!

Mine work great with weightless worms

Get yourself a Medium or Medium Light rod and you're all set!

I also use mine for weightless Senkos and the distance is great with no effort.

I've thrown down to 1/8th on it. It wasn't the ideal rod and line but it worked in a pinch because I didn't have a bfs setup with me.

I have a 50E on a Falcon Cara Micro finesse jig and it is great. I got in on the kickstart deal with Edge Rods and got the 693, a medium power fast action. It was the rod that they recommended for senkos. I figured that I'd put the I on it and call it good.
