Shimano Curado BFS
Shimano Curado BFS Baitcast Reel
The Shimano Curado BFS is Shimano's dedicated bait finesse system reel, purpose-built for casting ultra-light lures with pinpoint accuracy. Featuring the innovative Finesse Tune Brake (FTB) system and a featherweight 8.8g spool, the Curado BFS opens up a world of finesse techniques that conventional baitcasters simply cannot achieve.
Key Features
- Finesse Tune Brake (FTB) - dynamic magnetic braking moves from spool to palming plate, reducing spool weight for ultra-light casting
- Ultralight 8.8g S3D spool reinforced for braid - casts lures as light as 2-3g
- HAGANE Body - rigid metal construction eliminates flex under load
- X-Ship gear support for improved durability and smoother retrieves
- Cross Carbon Drag with Exciting Drag Sound for smooth, audible performance
- Compact 175g design for all-day comfort
- 7+1 shielded bearings for precision performance

Target Species & Techniques
A game-changer for finesse presentations in the estuary - skip small jerkbaits and micro jigs under overhanging structure for Black Bream, or work tiny vibes along the flats for Flathead. The BFS system lets you throw ultra-light lures with baitcaster accuracy and control, giving you a massive edge in pressured waters. Also brilliant for targeting Estuary Perch and Whiting with small soft plastics and micro hardbodies.
