I just got a shimano curado I and was wondering how you guys have your breaks set

Internal- 2 on

External- Set to 1

They should have 2 already set... I run mine with two on... External, typical 1 or 2, adjust as needed for gusty days, etc.. Never needed to run just one internal myself, some guys do though you can get good additional braking from the external dial.

Good choice...

Internal:1

 

Exteranl:2

Depends on the bait and the wind. With something like a lipless crank and little wind, I'll use 1 internal and whatever external I need. Other baits and/or more wind, I'll use 2 internals and then usually minimal external.

Internal 2, external 1. Good to go. 

2 & 2

Mike

Internal 2. external, whatever the bait and conditions dictate .

Depends on the lure I'm throwing. If its heavy and aerodynamic 1 on and 1 on the dial.

Internal 1, external usually around 1.5-2.5 depending on wind.
