Does anyone who owns a Shimano Chronarch 100D, Core 50MG7, and a Curado 200E like the Curado better than the others?

I haven't thrown the Chronies much but, compared to a Curado, the Calais CL100A with 7:1 gear ratio and 11 bearings is a total piece of crap. ![]() |

This is a joy to fish with... I ain’t saying its in everyones budget, but its bad ***. Everyonce and a while you can find a lightly used on on ebay or certain forums.

I was told the CORE is for freshwater only!!! Again someone that owns a place that sells fishing supplies told me this. BTW, I looked at the new Chronarch 100D7 reels.....SWEET.....but a little to much $$$$ for me.

No issues with the CORE Mg50's and I've been throwing them for almost a year.

Per Shimano's instructions:
1. Tighten the drag all the way down 2. Place the reel where the spool is centered under GENTLY running fresh water and reel for approximately 30 seconds 3. Wipe the reel off with a soft towel and loosen the drag all the way open. 4. Let reel air-dry. The trick is to keep the reel right side up while under the running water so that you do not flood the internal workings of the reel. I also take my reels in for professional cleanings after approximately 10-12 trips as needed... |

I have only heard of a couple people having problems with the core corroding it seems better than the mgs in saltwater. And the only difference in the new chronarch and core is the frame, magnesium vs aluminum. Personaly I wont put any of my cores or mgs in saltwater anymore their strickly my freshwater reels. Only use chronarchs and calasises for salt now.
