muskymike Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 2Tone, I have the 300 series Curado with PP and its fantastic. It casts a mile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
setomonkey Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 I've got 20 lb PowerPro on my medium baitcasting setup for bass and walleye. Include a fluoro leader of similar diameter and you should have no problems. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silveradosheriff Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 20-30 lb PP should do the trick! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rustic-Fisher Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 Don't be afraid to go up to 40 lb braid on that Curado. RF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greencoachdog Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 I don't trust any braid with less than a 30 lb. test! It'll pay for itself with the lures you DON'T lose! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeXXington Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 I don't trust any braid with less than a 30 lb. test! It'll pay for itself with the lures you DON'T lose! Got to second that!!!. With no strech casting bigger baits one bad cast you watch you bait cast a mile without your line attached.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raf Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 don't be afraid of going to 50# power pro on the curado. that is what I use, it's my bass/pike setup. it's the same diameter as 12# mono. for the muskie rods, 80 or 100#. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
