Who said the CHMg had 3 lbs of drag ? it has 10 pounds of drag, the one with 3 pounds is the Scorpion Mg. If the Curado 100 starts like the ChMg...... between the 3 the fight for the title is between the Cu100 and the TDX Super Tuned. I had one and my oh my, whata reel !, too bad it´s not a true low profile.

could a spool for a CH100B be used in a CH50MG for more line cap?

NO, the reels are not compatible.

I own both the Fuego and the 100D Curado. They are both really great reels for pitching. I don't fish senkos alot but I would say go with the Curado 100D, even though I voted for the Fuego...that was before I saw the technique.

I would choosen between those two with the retreival speed as a decided factor. The Curado has a 25" and the Fuego a higher speed 28".

Hope this helps...
