Shimano is making things tough on us! The Curado DC won best baitcaster at the 2018 iCast. The SLX DC won best of baitcaster at the 2019 icast. Both of these baitcasting reels will help you send your bait way downrange!
I put the same line on each of these reels, I mount them on the same rod and they both throw the same 1/2oz weight! Both of these reels have the same i-DC4 digital casting control chip.

I’ve not noticed a huge difference between casting distance between the two honestly, but the one thing that is noticeably different is how much smoother the curado dc is when retrieving your lure. The micro modulas gearing is what makes the curado dc superior to the slx dc in my opinion. I have both and really like both, but moving forward I’ll spend the extra money and buy the curado

It’s about contact surface more then anything. There are more teeth engaging with the micro modulus gearing in the Curado. So the pressure is spread out across a larger area. There by making them stronger then just a few teeth meshing together.

Its more then that, micro modulus is where Shimano was able to increase the surface area that is coming together between drive gear and pinion gear. By doing what they did it has increased the strength of the internals of the reel.

I have to be honest with you. When I first started watching your video I said to myself that I could go out and get any one of my bait casters and cast it as long as you were. After seeing what you did with the first cast that really got my attention. I normally only use daiwa, I'm definitely going to pick one of these up. I always thought that the big selling point on these reels is no backlash. I thought to myself that after using baitcasters for over 30 years I did not need anyting to help me cast better. After seeing this video I now see that that's not the only plus. I liked watching you do this in an open field. When I was a younger man and first started off with bait casters I practice for a very long time before I took it with me. After a few bird's nest I would always put it back and grab another one from the locker and would finish the day using a spincast. So finally one weekend I decided to leave all other rods at home. That way I either had to learn how to use a baitcaster or just not catch any fish and go out for a boat ride. After two weekends I finally got better. Now when I make a cast I do not even realize where my thumb is. I really enjoyed your video I already hit the like and subscribe. Look forward to watching more of your videos.

Got the SLX DC for my birthday. You might have two more bearings in the curado than the slx. But is it worth spending 60 more dollars just for 2 more bearings. I also have the regular slx and I love it. And for just a 100 dollars. You can’t beat that. Now for 190 dollars for a dc reels is just amazing. That is why it was voted for best reel at the 2019 icast. It was just unbelievable to find a digital chip system reel for less than 200 dollars.

Nice job! I still have my original Calcutta DC from many years ago when Shimano first introduced DC technology. It’s awesome! I have despooled it on a couple occasions. I may have to add the Curado DC to my arsenal though. Thanks to Shimano making it so affordable now I’m not going to be so special when I go fishing with the guys now!

I've got an original Calcutta DC and the thing sure can cast. But these new DCs are rubbish. The spools weigh 21 grams. 50 freaking percent heavier. And as a result they are rubbish for light lures that you can cast with other reels.

I have purchased both Curado DC and JDM Scorpion DC used each for couple of days , and I was disappointed in the casting distance, I can case farther with Curado K and casitas , but I will be picking up slx DC , because you really don't need to mess with the brakes, you just set it and forget it
@smbonna
@smbonna 5 лет назад
What I can tell you is that the DC will help you a bunch if you are new to bait casters. I feel it will make the learning process easier. But with that said the DC is hard to dial in the settings on. I too have both the DC and the K200 series and the K took me about 15 minutes to dial in. I casted the K a lot further until I got the DC dialed in. The DC took me 2 weeks of fishing and tweaking the settings to get it dialed in. Now the DC casts further with half the weight of whatever I am fishing with.

I used a SLX DC all last year, going out multiple times a week, it's a great reel for the price point. I looked at the Curado, but the extra casting distance wasn't a real factor for me. I fish from a kayak and cast seated either sidearm or backhanded since all my gear is behind me, I wouldn't get the most out of it anyways. The biggest selling point for me for either of these is the reduction in risk of backlash, I can cast a non-DC reel just fine, but not having spool thumb at the end of a tournament, or a long day on the water is always nice.

Yes the curado is a slightly better reel, is it worth the $120 difference? Probably not, but there's fishermen with spending problems like myself who will go ahead and drop $400 CAD on a reel. Having said that.... NOTHING and I mean NOTHING compares to the slx at the price point you're getting it at. It's a $250 reel that is 100% in the same league as the higher end and more expensive models. I have 0 complaints with my slx. And if you're just getting into baitcasting, the slx is a no brainer, I'd probably laugh at you if your first reel was the curado dc. The SLX DC is an EXCELLENT investment for both newcomers and experienced anglers. The design looks sharp, the material still feels like quality, and it casts like a dream with little to no thumb control. If you have the money to dish out... then get the curado. But if this is your first shimano reel, no brainer... slx DC. the technology is so out of this world just wait till you start casting with it. Personally, the best thing to do is get an SLX DC Setup, put some good use into it, and when you're ready just get a curado DC to pair with it. Realistically, who only uses 1 rod anyways lol

With the slx and the curado, you’d probably have to use the 4th brake setting. They aren’t quite as forgiving as some of the more expensive dc reels. That doesn’t mean they’re bad at all....I definitely like mine a lot. It’s just that their dc braking isn’t quite as refined as, say, the metanium dc’s braking.

4 vs 6 bearings doesn’t have anything to do with it casting further. Heck some reels like lews with high bearing counts have 4 of the bearings in the handle knobs lol. The only bearings that deal with casting distance are the spool bearings.
@JCDropshot
@JCDropshot 4 года назад
The Curado has one more bearing supporting the spool then the SLX so in this case it does affect things. But yes you are correct some companies put bearing in places that don’t add performance benefits just to sell reels.

I would argue that BECAUSE I don't get out much I like to have very adequate gear so that when I DO get out it is with very enjoyable and "nice" equipment. You didn't mention that the micro-gearing on the Curado is butter smooth and a delight to use. We only get so much time on Earth. Make it count.

Correct. The line still pulls a little more when hitting the water vs solid ground... the reel has to react faster with ground which would result in tightening the spool, higher selector number or both to compensate.

Thanks for doing the video. I have the Curado DC but considering the SLX DC; hence my reason for watching. I’m wondering if you read the directions, though? Because you were using braid but on setting 3, which is the flouocarbon setting. #2 is the setting for braid. Perhaps you would’ve gotten even more distance & not had the backlashes. 🤔

You must not have the tension knob adjusted correctly, I never backlash or need to thumb

The Curado rods are a great choice for matching up up to there reel. Most of my casting rods are Curado rods

I think the common misconception with the DC is they're an aid, not a fail proof do it for you type of thing. With a tiny bit of thumb, there shouldn't ever be a backlash. but to totally rely on the real, kinda silly and defeats the point of a bait caster. lol

Thx for reviews!!! Just went to your gear store and the "dc" isn't there yet I think. The regular slx is. Like 90$. Am I understanding that right? If I do sell kid number two, wanna make sure I'm getting the right one..... :)
