Reel Curado BFS

The Curado BFS (Bait Finesse System) is designed for lightweight finesse fishing and utilises FTB (Finesse Tune Brake) technology and an ultra lightweight shallow spool designed to cast lightweight lures more effectively than traditional low-profile models.
If you have tried to fish with very small lures on a traditional baitcasting reel you’ll understand the limitations. Often the reel is just not sensitive enough to cast lures of 5g and under effectively, that’s where the Curado BFS comes into play. If lightweight fishing is your passion and you prefer the directness of using a baitcasting reel, the Curado BFS will suit you perfectly. Ideal for targeting trout, perch, or even fooling wary larger fish that are ignoring larger lures, the lightweight approach has a lot going for it and with the Curado BFS you have the perfect reel to maximise your success.
The lightweight casting performance of Curado BFS is provided by the FTB (Finesse Tune Braking) system. This consists of a set of magnets housed within the non-handle sideplate, which apply force to the inner surface of the reel's spool. Turning the brake adjustment dial moves the magnets either further into the spool (more brake force) or away from it, but there are no moving parts on the spool itself, which is why it can spin so freely with so little force. The addition of S3D spool design and Super Free Spool technology further enhances performance. Internally precision gears, bearings and X-SHIP deliver smooth, efficient winding power and the overall weight is reduced by the use of an aluminium HAGANE Body.

XSHIP_RL_BT
X SHIP

X SHIP provides improved gear durability. By supporting the pinion gear on both ends with bearings, the pinion gear maintains precise alignment with the drive gear. This increased support allows the gears to stay in the same position under the heaviest loads. X-Ship technology also eliminates the friction between the spool shaft and gear to further benefit anglers with enhanced casting performance and casting distance of lighter lures.


HAGANEBODY_RL_BT
HAGANE BODY

The HAGANE Body is a metal reel body with high rigidity. The body rigidity and impact resistance virtually eliminate body flexing on the reel while fighting a fish. The result transforms the angler's actions directly into cranking power.


SILENTTUNE_RL_BT
SILENT TUNE

By applying slight pressure to the bearing holding the spool, SilentTune reduces the vibration of the bearing during high-speed rotation. This improves the quietness while casting and the rise of the spool rotation becomes even smoother.


FTB_RL_BT
FTB

Shimano developed the Finesse Tune Brake (FTB) to improves casting performance of lightweight lures by eliminating the brake unit from the spool. This revolutionary design further reduces weight beyond traditional spool-porting designs that keep the brake unit attached. When the spool rotation speed increases, these magnets move outward to the spool closer.The backlash is prevented from the increased Brake power.


CROSSCARBONDRAG_RL_BT
CROSS CARBON DRAG

The CROSS CARBON DRAG provides the smooth drag release and the durability.


EXCITINGDRAGSOUND_RL_BT
EXCITING DRAG SOUND

EXCITING DRAG SOUND technology enables drag sound on a baitcasting reel.


S3D_RL_BT
S3D

S3D SPOOL leads to significantly reduced spool vibration. This creates an smooth feeling when casting.


SA-RB_RL_BT
S A-RB

S A-RB bearings are put through the same process as Shimano’s A-RB bearings but feature shields on both sides of the bearings. These shields reduce the possibility of salt or sand inhibiting the rotation of the bearing.


SUPERFREESPOOL_RL_BT
SUPER FREE SPOOL

SUPER FREE SPOOL reduces friction on the spool shaft during the cast and enhances casting performance.
