I have 5 Curado's on rods and 2 in the box, never used.
Set up for a while.

Ron Ardoin bought some off of Ebay and fixed them up.
He bought the Curado's that were pre 200 E-7.
The light green ones. He has a buttload if anyone is
looking.

I bought a few quantum reels, they're really smooth and great to fish with, but keep em clean and oiled they don't last as long as the shimano, but the smoke is a bad @$$ reel!

Cores are sweet reels for freshwater but saltwater they suck, I've had mine rebuilt 2-4 times in a year n a half.... Not made to fish the coast. I threw that thing in the garbage

Go fish that core over in Mike Sheltons area. You will need a new one after.

Anyone trying any of the U.S. reels yet. Ive heard some good reports about the drags and casting performance. Just wondering if they will hold up to the salt.

Obviously waters with same ppm /ppt salinity are same salinity.... That coast in Fla has bigger tidal swings bringing in way saltier water inshore

The Ocean adv 35 parts per thousand...

Gulf of Mexico adv about 32 ppt

Two weeks ago before all the rain...big lake was 32 ppt....

Some areas of the Gulf will get to 35ppt but in water depths over 1000 feet

The Max inland is 28 - 32 from Mexico to Fl...
