The Curado has a line guide that disengages on the cast making casting shorter and also bunches up your line on one side. The line bunching up on one side is more annoying than the line guide disengaging. That being said it still is a great reel. The Revo Toro NaCl is just better for the same price. The NaCl line guide stays engaged on the cast so your casts are further with less effort. Both reels hold up about as good or better than any reel in the industry.
