What a dilemma...I have enough of the old style green Curado BSF's to cover every one of these rods twice over, as well as two Cardiff 301's, a Calcutta 201 TE, and a Calcutta 401 for the heavy stuff.

Considering the rod inventory below, what the heck am I going to do with the new Curado 201DHSV I just got for Xmas???? what


1 G-Loomis GL3 STR1143 C 9' 6" 6-12 lb. Mod-Fast Action
2 G-Loomis IMX STR1084 C 9' 8-12 lb. Fast Action
3 Lamiglas Certified Pro X 96 JC 9' 6" 6-15 lb. Fast Action
4 Lamiglas Certified Pro X 10 MHC 10' 10-20 lb. Fast Action
5 Lamiglas Rogue River Special RR 86 MTS 8'6" 10-25 lb. Fast Action
6 Sage CT 2106 10'6" 8-17 lb. Mod-Fast Action
7 Sage Graphite III GIIISH 290 B 9' 6-15 lb. Fast Action

What a nice problem to have......It is a very nice reel, you'll enjoy the reel no matter which rod you put in on.

Santa was nice to you!!!!!!!!

I vote for # 3 or # 7.

I've got a similar problem as I keep changing rods with my new Curado 201 DHSV and Daiwa Luna 253. Life was a lot simpler when I only had 1 rod/reel.

Throw it away and get yourself a real reel. You need a Sustain.

I would put the new reel on the Sage 290, then I would send ISO Chrome a PM with a superb price for one of those old boxed up 201 BSF's..
