A Bait Finesse Baitcaster at a Fair Price

Casting light lures on a baitcaster has always demanded specialist gear - specifically exceptionally shallow, lightweight spools and high-grade ball bearings - which has made it both technically demanding and expensive. Shimano answers that with the Curado BFS XG, a long-awaited BFS version of the proven Curado platform. The Curado has always punched well above its price point, and the BFS variant takes that even further. The shallow, featherlight S3D spool holds 50 metres of 0.23 mm line - more than enough capacity for BFS applications, yet light enough that casting lures around the two-gram mark is comfortably achievable with a little practice. To keep those weights stress-free in the air, Shimano has fitted the Curado BFS with the FTB (Finesse Tune Brake) system borrowed from the Aldebaran BFS. This magnetic cast control system is forgiving and keeps the cast stable throughout. The XG gear ratio delivers the fast retrieve speed typical of most BFS reels, while the gearing itself is every bit as solid and durable as on the standard Curado. The HGN body has been carried over from that reel too. One addition worth noting is the drag system, which now produces the 'Exciting Drag Sound' on line release - keeping you informed at all times when a fish is taking line during the fight, a feature rarely seen on baitcasters. At 175 g, the reel is impressively light despite its aluminium body, sitting comfortably alongside many finesse baitcasting rods both technically and aesthetically. It's a genuinely capable reel for anyone serious about finesse baitcasting.

Curado BFS XG

The Curado BFS is a really great baitcaster that impresses with a chic design and overall very harmonious workmanship. The roll feels high-quality and runs smoothly. However, I finally sent them back and opted for Aldebaran BFS instead. Why Throwing under 3 grams was rather difficult with the Curado BFS. Even at 4.5 grams, I still had problems achieving decent ranges. Starting at 5 grams, it worked much better, and at 8 grams it was absolutely perfect — this is where the role fully shows its strengths. Conclusion: The Curado BFS is a highly recommended roll for light baits from approx. 5 grams upwards. However, if you want to fish even finer and throw less than 5 grams reliably, you should use the Aldebaran BFS.

Curado BFS XG

It's amazing how good that is. I have 0.10 mm braided line for +- 100 meters on it. Very finely adjustable magnetic brake. You'll notice a significant difference when you adjust it. I would say a minimum casting weight of 3 grams. It's easier too, but you throw a little less far, or that could be due to my rod with a casting weight of 3.5 to 10 grams. Very fine and smooth roll

Curado BFS XG

Really cool... Is in no way inferior to the high-end roles. Great handling, top performance. Very reliable widths even in the 2 - 3 gram range. Highly recommended. Usual very fast shipping. Top service.

Curado BFS XG

Always happy The service from pike and perch was great as always!! Was on the water with the Curado BFS and it is easy to throw baits with 3g at good fishable distances a good alternative to Aldebaran

Curado BFS XG

Everything chic but no oil roll is absolutely great I would order again immediately the only drawback, there was no oil included as described in the video. The service from H&B was great as always.

Curado BFS XG

I'm thrilled, I took on the role because I sunk my beloved Daiwa Alphas Air some time ago. Curado performs much better, I never thought I was blown away

Curado BFS XG

Great role The role arrived super quickly and I was able to quickly initiate it on the water with big fish. Always happy to do it again.

Curado BFS XG

The roll is very good for light weights, the shaft also under the 3 grams that indicate the baits are to be thrown

Curado BFS XG

The role is really excellent. It promises not too little simple a great product real purchase recommendation

Curado BFS XG

Top role As always, H&B's service is top notch. The role is perfect and the price is great.

Safety information

Bei der Verwendung von SHIMANO Angelruten und -rollen ist es von grundlegender Bedeutung, die Sicherheit als auch das Angelerlebnis des Benutzers zu gewährleisten.

- Allgemeine Sicherheitsinformationen

• Haken vorsichtig handhaben: Decken Sie die Angelhaken immer ab oder entfernen Sie diese von den Ruten für den Transport. Verwenden Sie Korken oder Hakenschutzhüllen, um versehentliche Verletzungen zu vermeiden.
• Abstand einhalten: Fischen Sie mindestens 10 Meter von anderen entfernt, um Unfälle zu vermeiden. Achten Sie vor dem Auswerfen auf Personen hinter Ihnen.
• Anfänger ausbilden: Weisen Sie Kinder und Anfänger in die sichere Handhabung von Ruten und Haken ein, um Risiken zu minimieren.
• Sicherheitsabstand: Halten Sie immer einen Abstand von mindestens sechs Metern zu Hochspannungsleitungen ein, wenn Sie Angelruten tragen oder benutzen.

- Hinweise zur sicheren Nutzung

• Vermeiden Sie High Sticking: Biegen Sie Ihre Rute nicht zu stark, während Sie einen Fisch drillen, was als "High Sticking" bezeichnet wird. Halten Sie die Rute in einem maximalen Belastungswinkel von 45 bis 60 Grad, um Brüche zu vermeiden.
• Ausrichtung der Rute bei Hängern: Wenn sich Ihr Köder festhängt, halten Sie die Rute auf den Haken gerichtet, während Sie rückwärtsgehen, um die Belastung der Rute zu verringern.
• Vorsicht bei Kohlefaser: Kohlefaserruten sind zwar stark, können aber spröde sein. Vermeiden Sie es, sie fallen zu lassen oder gegen harte Oberflächen zu schlagen, da dies zu Schäden führen kann.
• Sicherer Transport: Nehmen Sie Ihre Rute immer auseinander und legen Sie sie während des Transports in eine Schutzhülle, um Schäden durch äußere Einflüsse zu vermeiden.
• Kohlefaserruten leiten Elektrizität. Verwenden Sie sie nicht bei Gewitter oder in der Nähe von Stromleitungen.
• Versuchen Sie niemals, Köder oder Vorfächer aus Bäumen oder Büschen herauszuziehen, indem Sie Druck auf die Rute und die Angelschnur ausüben. Dies kann dazu führen, dass der Köder/das Blei in Richtung des Anglers katapultiert wird. Benutzen Sie nur Ihre Hände, um den Köder/das Blei zu befreien.
