Shimano Curado 200K is available for preorder now

Reels are the hottest topic for TackleTour. Everyone wants to know what the latest and greatest is and how they compare to the old guard. What's the best for light stuff, or what's your suggestion for heavy cover. Do we really need different retrieve ratios? It's all in here.

I handled one last week, if you close your eyes, you can't tell it's a Curado, very smooth, and looks great!

For what it's worth, since the E series, I personally don't feel Shimano has given much effort to the Curado. Hell, in their video announcing the new K series, they left the G out. I think they hit pay dirt with this reel. I preordered one as soon as TT had the preorder going. I'd preorder one now if I were you.

If you were one of the first people to preorder the Curado K from TW the expected arrival date was mid July. All those preorders were filled and it looks like it will be awhile before TW can "catch up" with all the preorders.

When I was at a local shop a couple weeks ago, they had five for sale. I just called, and was told, about 50 were sent out to dealers, all 5 sold in about three hours =D> If they had a PG model, I would have made a purchase.
