Had a chance to buy two c4s for cheap from a buddy of mine. I passed on them thinking they may not suit my fishing style and he had a chance to sell them for more. So, feeling a little regretful, I walk into my local tackle shop today and come across two curado g series reels half price. In box , never used. I feel like I lucked out as I have been using the original bantams and a super free I bought over a decade ago.

Nice deal either way!

I would have bought them too! G series curado/citica is so comfortable to palm.

Nice!  I want to land a deal like that.

Nice

It's funny, I'm two generations of curado behind... Yet the technology feels immensely different from the old greenies. Hopefully they will last another generation. My reel collection is starting to look like a time machine. Great reels.

Don't dismiss those B series reels, they are still sought after and fished by many people. Most parts can be found for them through independent sources. I like to think of them as the 72 Chevy P.U. of the fishing world, not many frills, just all business.

I absolutely love them. I am still planning on sending them to DVT for a supertune. I own a few and keep a spare for parts for when I'll need them. The only problem is... They are all still in outstanding condition. My next move in the upcoming year is to buy a pair of curado I's or chronarch e's. Hopefully Ill be able deal shop for them as well.

Sweet!!!
