2005 Daiwa TD Sol Baitcast Reel Question
Is the USDM Sol baitcast reel, which frame is it similar to from back then; Japanese version. The Pixy or Alpha?
I'm looking to get a shallow spool for my Sol to make it a BFS reel. I may have to get one from Aliexpress, if I know which model and spool is needed.

Curado 300K Gear Ratio Question
I'm looking to buying one but not sure if I should get the 6.6:1(35 IPT) or the 4.7:1 (25 IPT) for all around swimbait reel. I have the 300E it has 28 IPT and the gear ratio is good. Just not sure about this newer 300, seems one gear is too fast and the other is too low. I've picked up a 300K and li...

I'd like to get an Avail shallow spool for my Calcutta 51 and need to know if the Conquest (JDM) is the same reel so same spool. Can anyone confirm this?

Say Hello To My Little Friend...
I've had this Shimano Calcutta 51 for years and have used it a few times. Fun little baitcast reel, just that it only reels in 16" of line. Good for crankbaits and stick worms. Only thing I changed out is the stock 70mm handle for a longer 84mm Shimano Calcutta handle. Reeling feels much more fluid ...

Curado BFS Question
Is the Curado BFS the same size as the Curado 70 MGL? Main difference is the braking and handle knobs?

Shimano SLX BFS Casting Reel?
I know the Curado BFS is coming out like soon. Just wondering when the release date for the SLX BFS will be for the U.S. market. I already have a casting rod in mind for the SLX BFS, it's not the Dobyns Sierra BFS rod. I checked out he Phenix Feather, 7'1", light 1/16-3/8oz casting rod. Such a nice ...

Shimano Calcutta 51
I’ve had this small round reel for years. Is a shallow spool for BFS fishing available for the Calcutta 51? Or is there a way to make the spool shallow to cast lures from 1/8oz up?

Would This Baitcast Rod Work for BFS?
This is an Okuma Crappie specific baitcast rod. 6'6", light, 4-8lbs line, 1/16-5/16oz. I know the pics are a bit blurred, best I can get. I've used this rod on my Zebco Micro 33 spincast reel and works good. I ordered a Kastking Zephyr BFS reel and this is the rod I'll be using. Will this work for l...

Re: Meet The "Small" Curado Family, And a Cousin
Very cool! All my Curados I've bought new back in theday. I've seen the 101B used now and then and been tempted to buy one again. But the frame is the same as the 100DSV and Chronarch 51Mg and figured it would be redundant.
I also have a Calcutta 51B

Re: Meet The "Small" Curado Family, And a Cousin
Nice, very nice! I also have my collection of 201 size Curados. Sold the 201 BSF and Curado 201E and 101B years ago, now I wish I still had them in the stable. I forgot to add in my Curado 101D to the family pic.
