I have a curado I, bb1 and a bb2 and I think they lack the power for swimbaits. Buy you Phenix m1 swimbait rod, Cardiff 300a and you have you a complete setup under $300 that will throw absolute bombs and feel great. Throw some maxima ultragreen 20# on it and you are ready to go

You just saved my life. This is exactly what I was looking for.
