I’m not sure what to say about this rod other than I can’t believe it’s only $159. The Ci4 reel seat and the hi-power X wrap is worth that alone. Pair that with Fuji guides and you can’t go wrong.

Hooked up with one of my Curado 151HG DC. Curado for casting Vanford/Zodias for spinning. Good enough for a budget weekend angler as myself. Great content 👊thx

Received my new Curado casting rod 7'2 MH, no chance to try it in fishing yet but the rod feels pretty awesome for the price. I can tell you that it feels very light and on the stiffer side for a MH rod. Bought on sale for 115$ it's worth the money....I hope! Is the new Zodias 6'10 M suitable for light t-rig and 3/16 football jigs?

I found the rod and handle to be be very similar to the zodias.

Have you put a reel on it to see how it balances out?

@OnAnotherLine 2 жыл бұрын

I have. I really like the way this rod feels overall. I believe the Zodias has it on weight as far as being lighter, but other than that and the Carbon handle on the Zodias, I can't tell much of a difference. The guides are different, but personally unless you're talking really high end guides, I'm not one to nitpick.

So they repackaged the old zodias and added a hook keeper. It's cool that they dropped the price though.

How heavy is it

@OnAnotherLine 2 жыл бұрын

I’d put it in the same weight category as the old Eva foam handled zodias. Pretty dang light.

Perhaps they’ll call me out with a true curado bfs casting rod!

@OnAnotherLine 2 жыл бұрын

Unfortunately the new Curado rod line doesn’t have a BFS model in it at the moment. You have to step up to the Zodias for that.

@JustinC0219 2 жыл бұрын

They do have one. A 7 ft 2in ML bfs rod.

@@JustinC0219 you’re correct. I just looked back at the models listed. I was initially wrong. Thanks for clearing that up.

@@JustinC0219 Not sure it can load a 1/16 oz lure? Think it is rated for 3/16-3/8ths

@mattjohnston9131 2 жыл бұрын

@@davidrauschenbach6871 I just got the 6'10" ML and it can load and cast 1/8 oz pretty accurately. But I'm using an SLX MGL 70 and not a BFS real, so it might be better with a different reel but I don't plan to throw anything lighter than that with this rod anyway.
