Shimano Curado Casting Rod – CDC72HA

The Shimano Curado Casting Rods have been recently redesigned in 2021 to meet the needs of tournament level bass anglers. These rods now have improved strength and casting performance compared to their previous versions. The Curado Bass Rods are constructed using Shimano's renowned Hi-Power X technology, making them stronger and more efficient than ever before. The Hi-Power X blanks feature an outer layer of carbon tape that tightly winds the blank in opposite directions. This design enhances torsional rigidity and increases sensitivity. By reducing blank twist and ovalization, the Hi-Power X blanks enable more accurate casts while providing precise power transfer and control when fighting a fish.

The Curado Casting Rods are equipped with Fuji tangle-free K guides with FazLite inserts. These guides ensure precision line management and promote smooth casting. Shimano's CI4+ reel Seats are used in these rods to enhance sensitivity by effectively transmitting vibrations into the hand. They also contribute to the lightweight and well-balanced feel of the rod. Additionally, the rods feature durable EVA split grip handles that offer a secure grip and all-day casting comfort.

If you are in search of tournament-grade bass rods at a fair price, the newly redesigned Curado bass rods from Shimano should be on your radar.
