Whatever bites the bait! lol
I would probably use it more for trout since I have 3 rods that I can use for reds. |

I have one that I bass fish with. Very smooth reel always been scared to take it in the salt just cause it is so smooth. But im sure if you take care of it it will last you a long time

I've never used on but the old 5500's would last for ever. When they start to make noise just dip it in the salt water.

I can verify Scatv's reel... it starts squealing... and I tell him that it is a pos... he dunks it in the water... and its stops making that squeal.

I have a revo and curado, and i can say the curado does feel a good bit smoother but not a HUGE difference. The curado seems easier to cast lighter baits tho. But I've been having my revo for 2 years now, and its still as smooth as the day i bought it. I've never brought it into saltwater tho or my curado. Just afraid they'll lose that ultra smoothness they have

How long have you been using it in saltwater?

I tried a top of the line Revo and it was nice but can not even come close to a Curado when it comes to casting distance.

Squelling ambassador
I'll take the squelling out . A good cleaning and maybe a bearing change will do it wonders.
The revo is a fine reel in fresh water. I have seen damage to the bearings from the salt water. Again it's how you take care of the reel. My 2 cents Reelman |
