Shimano Curado BFS: The Revolution of Bait Finesse

The Curado BFS (Bait Finesse System) low-profile reel expands Shimano’s famous lineup, redefining the concept of finesse fishing for tournament anglers and the most demanding enthusiasts. Inspired by the Japanese Domestic Market (JDM), this new special model is specifically designed to cast and manage ultra-light rigs with thin diameter lines, allowing for presentations that traditional baitcasting reels could not handle with the same effectiveness.

FTB Technology: Finesse Tune Brake

The heart of the innovation in the new Shimano Curado BFS casting reel is Shimano’s Finesse Tune Brake (FTB) system. This technology drastically reduces the spool's weight by moving the braking unit from the spool to the side-plate. The result is an ultra-lightweight shallow spool (low capacity) that requires minimal force to turn, allowing anglers to cast tiny lures with extreme ease. Unlike traditional magnetic systems, the FTB capitalizes on centrifugal force to automatically adjust the braking action only when truly necessary.

Power and Control: Hagane Body and X-Ship

Despite its finesse vocation, the Curado BFS does not sacrifice robustness. The rotation is powerful and smooth thanks to the X-Ship system, while all internal parts are protected by the Hagane Body, which is extremely rigid and impact-resistant. A unique detail that increases the thrill of the catch is the Exciting Drag Sound, a feature usually reserved for spinning reels, which produces an audible sound during the fish's run.

Millimetric Adjustment for Picky Fish

The FTB system is fully adjustable via the external dial, offering anglers the chance to fine-tune the cast based on wind conditions or lure weight. Further adjustments can be made by adding or removing individual magnets. The Curado BFS is the perfect antidote for picky fish, the ideal tool for those who want to downsize baits to drastically increase their success on the water. Left-hand handle. Excellent finesse casting reel for fishing lightweight lures for black bass, perch, zander, trout, and... much more!
