Needemp Posted December 1, 2006 Posted December 1, 2006 What are the different years in the Curado? I am not familiar with the models that exist before the model D. I have noticed a couple of older looking ones that are green and one is almost a gold color. Any explanation would be greatly appreciated. Quote
Super User Raul Posted December 1, 2006 Super User Posted December 1, 2006 There are 4 year models, I don 't remember the exact year the first two appeared but I do remember how they look like. The first Curado was silver/grayish a distinctive characteristic of the reel was that it had a flipping switch on the top of the reel, The second Curado was black/grayish but it had a different shape and a distinctive red/orange stripe in the frame. The third Curado appeared in late 1993 early 1994, the familiar chameleon green we were used to see for over a decade. The fourth Curado is the one we see now. Quote
Super User flechero Posted December 1, 2006 Super User Posted December 1, 2006 Raul, Wasn't there a red one somewhere in there also? Quote
Super User Raul Posted December 1, 2006 Super User Posted December 1, 2006 Raul,Wasn't there a red one somewhere in there also? The frame was red, the sideplates were black/grayish. It looked like it had a stripe from the front to the back. Quote
basspro48 Posted December 1, 2006 Posted December 1, 2006 The "almost gold" one you are talking was probably a Curado BSF. The SF stands for Super Free, it was basically an old curado with a ported spool and a metal braking knob. Quote
Mikey Posted December 3, 2006 Posted December 3, 2006 I have an all red curado. I got it for the 1st chronarch that was recalled because of the spring in the flipping switch feature; the spring rested almost directly against the line on the spool. bothe reels had graphite side plates or bodies with an alu. frame.
