The Reel
The next generation Shimano Curado 200HG K Baitcaster Reel sets a new benchmark in everyday performance and saltwater durability. Featuring the latest in Shimano’s innovative MicroModule gearing and X-Ship for smooth rotation, combined with the new SVS Infinity Braking System for enhanced casting performance. To withstand the toughest saltwater environments, the Curado K is designed with a specially plated pinion gear, combined with a breakwater wall and drainage port to provide protection against corrosion. This reel is also 10% smaller compared to the previous model. Enhanced by the metal Hagane Body to provide added durability and rigidity.

Micro Module gearing
With the gear teeth super-refined to the limit, the Micro Module Gear system enables seamless engagement and power transmission. The system reduces noise and provides better sensitivity without compromising strength

SVS Infinity Braking System
The SVS Infinity Braking System in the Curado reel offers easy-to-manage, consistent spool control and brake force. It controls spool speed with the external adjustment knob so you can make fast and precise adjustments in all conditions.

X-Ship
By supporting the pinion gear on both ends with the S-ARB bearings and integrating bigger drive gear, Shimano increased the gearing efficiency and power. This results in a fishing reel with ultra-light handle rotation; less effort and power giving a perfect rotation even under heavy loads.

The Rod
The Shimano Zodias Medium Light Baitcast Rod has undergone a significant upgrade and now features Shimano’s exclusive Carbon Monocoque Butt for the ultimate in sensitivity. The Full Carbon Monocoque rod butt is made of hollow carbon construction, eliminating the use of EVA from the rear grip. This results in a very lightweight construction that is extremely sensitive and improves vibration transmission through the rod blank to your hand when working a lure. To provide the exact balance between power and finesse, the Zodias continues to feature Shimano’s Hi-Power X graphite blank and Ci4+ Reel Seat and upgraded Fuji Stainless Alconite K guides with a SiC tip. Finished with the slick red and black cosmetics that have made the Zodias series a perfect match for many Shimano reels.

Carbon Monocoque
Carbon Monocoque grip is a new level of high sensitivity for rods with the innovative idea of hollowing the rear grip by carbon integral moulding. This allows for unprecedented lightness and sensitivity.

Hi-Power X
In Hi-Power X construction, the blank’s outermost layer is diagonally wrapped with carbon tape, which forms an array of inchXinch shapes. The width of the tape, its winding angle and the part of the rod being wrapped are fine-tuned according to the target fish species. The flexibility allows Shimano to adjust these wraps during construction for precise actions, enhanced overall strength and added twist resistance. In short, Hi-Power X construction delivers sharp and crisp rod control by the angler.
