Esox_Magnum Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 I have a Shimano Curado 300 I got used 3 or so years ago still going strong and a couple Revo Toro 60's that have survived well. I put about 60-80 days a year on the Toros with a steady diet of blades and mag dawgs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUNnGUN Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Depends on what you want to use the reel for. Curado 300s are awesome reels. Great for gliders, topwaters, smaller to mid-sized bucktails. If you're looking to constantly burn big blades or throw big rubber (pounders), I would stay away from any low-profile reel. I know some guys may disagree, but there are much better options for big blades and big rubber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish&Fowl Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Revo Toro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Marc V- Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 I have a couple Revo Toro 60's I'm not too happy with. Might be the minority. I don't get out near as much as most, and both my Toro's need work. I asked them to pull double 13's when maybe I shouldn't have.I've heard Shimano 300 EJ's (low-pro) stand up well to big blades. I'm considering just going the Trinidad route personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
