Fishing reels have become technical marvels over the last couple of years.They have space aged designs, super light construction, bearings and gears that would make a Nasa Engineer proud. Shimano’s latest release, the 2009 Shimano Curado 200e7 might be the best reel ever made!It’s definitely the best fishing reel I’ve ever purchased.

Starting with the sleek lightweight design, it just fits my hand perfectly. It’s cool dark green metallic look is also stylish.I like how the low profile allows me to palm the reel while winding.The very smooth seven.1:1 retrieve ratio picks up so much line on each cast, you become so much more proficient.I particularily need to have this feature when fishing in clear water.On a recent adventure to a gin clear lake, the fish would only bite on super long casts and wouldn’t even think of hitting your lure close to the boat.You know how when your retrieve is past the strike zone so you can just reel up quickly and fire out another cast. This allowed me to catch more fish than my back of the boat partner.

And speaking of super long casts, the Shimao Curado 200e7 has a Variable Brake System (VBS) that allows you to dial in just how much spool resistance you like. With 7 ball bearings, this reel just spits out the line.It also has a huge spool which allows you to carry more line. This reduces friction and allows your favorite lure to look like it was shot out of a cannon.

This is a great all-around reel.I use one for buzzbaits, pitching, braided line frog fishing, and of course throwing my best crankbaits.The very large reel handle grips make it easy to fish all day.This reel is so very light, which prevents your fingers and hands from getting fatigued.

For my money, this is the best reel ever built and I’ve replaced all my with the Shimano Curado 200e7. You can find this reel and other Shimano reels at http:www.fishingreels4less.com.
