Testing the Best Classic Baitcast Reel (Shimano Bantam Curado CU-200)

Today I'm testing the best classic baitcast reel, the Shimano Bantam Curado CU-200! In the late 1990's, when I started bass fishing, this reel was the the benchmark for quality baitcasters. I am happy to finally purchase one so I can try fishing with one after all this time. $50 used, is what I paid and I hope I can make some magic happen. Looks like I might need to replace the spool bearings, and that might come up in a future video. Even in its present condition I think it did pretty well. #notsponsored Send mail to the show here: Realistic Fishing PO Box 2005 Lebanon TN 37088 Buy it & Try it Yourself: https://www.amazon.com/shop/realistic...
