I work at a fishing store and I have the many questions about reels and history of them.

 

Does anyone have a master list/PDF/Spreadsheet of the lineage of the Shimano Curado's line up since inception? The box's have numbers and letter's on them. I just relatively know the size of these baitcast reels but cannot explain the mysterious acronyms that's displayed on them boxes.

 

I would like to clearly explain and distinguish older to newer models of any Shimano reel that we have on display.

I don't see the OG lipstick red Curado on there.  It was early 90's I think.  One showed up on ebay about 5 years ago...it was NIB!  Went for $105

 

Just from my semi young but foggy memory I believe there was:

 

1989ish (grey colored magnetic brake Curado) I believe only produced one year.

 

1990 or so (red tomato)

 

1994 (200b “greenie”) I think this reel was made until 2008 or so in some markets.

 

2002 + or - a yr (100b)

 

2004 (200bsf)

 

 

 

2006/7 D series 

 

2008/10 E series

 

2012 G series 

 

2014/15 I series

 

2018 K series 

 

2023 M series

 

This is loosely accurate 

I wish I had a dollar for every bass caught on one of those old Greenies.
