I was in need of a reel fix, so when I saw the Curado DC I thought this would be a good place to start. I'll try to keep this short and sweet.
Took a while to dial it in using the cast control knob. The instructions simply state to tighten it until the side to side play is gone. Mine needed more tightening to prevent overrun.
Pros- This thing is like butter! So freaking smooth! And the cool sound! Once dialed in you really can cast without your thumb. Great for skipping or windy conditions.

Cons- Even on setting 1 (free cast) I couldn't cast as far as my Gen2 Revo SX. Both had the same line and the exact same lure (XPS 4 inch jerkbait).

So for close to mid-range duty this thing is awesome. For a beginner this thing is awesome since it can be set not to backlash or overrun. In my case I need maximum distance for throwing to stripers and the extra 10 to 15 feet counts. This just means I'll be using the new, cool, smooth Curado DC for Largemouth duty.
