Shimano Curado 150DC Blackout Baitcaster Combo 7ft 7-28g 2pc

Supreme casting performance

The Shimano Curado 150DC Blackout Baitcaster Combo is specially designed to handle the rigours of modern baitcasting. The Curado 150DC Reel's components ensure superior casting while the Blackout Rod takes comfort and performance to a whole new level.

The Reel
The Shimano Curado 150DC Anti-Tangle Baitcaster Reel is built on the legacy of durability, dependability and versatility that Curado is known for, now with Shimano's unique DC braking technology. Shimano's new Digital Control braking system utilises a microcomputer to monitor spool speed 1,000 times every second and apply the perfect amount of brake to prevent backlash and maximise distance. Anglers of all skill levels will appreciate less thumbing and trouble-free casting in all conditions.

MicroModule
The addition of Micromodule gear technology to the worm shaft ideal gear reduces oscillation vibration. This is an incredible breakthrough in design and delivers and outstanding level smoothness without sacrificing strength or durability. The enhanced smoothness results in greater sensitivity transmitted from your rod, line and lure to your hand.

XShip
XShip is a combination of features that work together to create much greater efficiency. By positioning the pinion gear close to the centre line of the large diameter drive gear, more power is transferred from the handle to the rotor. The pinion gear is also supported by two Shimano ARB roller bearings, creating more stability.

Hagane Body
The Hagane Body is produced from high rigidity aluminium or magnesium. This creates stiffness and impact resistance, while at the same time eliminating flexing of the body. The result is a rock solid housing and support for he moving internal gearing and greater efficiency throughout the reel.

S A-RB
Shimano S A-RB bearings are high-corrosion-resistant ARB ball bearings with an extra shield for improved protection against sand, salt or dust.

Cross Carbon Drag
This carbon drag material provides a wider range of drag settings, along with the smoothest Shimano drag performance ever.

CI4
CI4 is an exclusive material created by the interfusion of carbon and polyamide. It is almost as strong as metal with the lightness of a composite. CI4 is used for the body and rotor on many Shimano reels.

I-DC4
Intelligent Digital Controlling Braking System with an easy-to-use 4-setting, externally-adjustable brake dial. This will allow anglers to fish a wide variety of lures, in any conditions, with minimal adjustment to the reel.

The Rod
Providing the perfect balance between power and finesse, the new Shimano Blackout Baitcasting Rod features T45 blank technology to create a strong, powerful and crisp action with superb sensitivity in a sleek black design. Coupled with WINN grips to provide the ultimate comfort. This rod will not only help you land the fish you're after, but it will allow you to do it in style.

WINN Grips
Unlike traditional cork or EVA grips, the new WINN grips are made from high quality polymer formulated to provide firmness, texture, sensitivity and comfort even when wet.
