Re: Super Tuned Shimano Corsair

Bassman13, been usin AMB round reels for 40 yrs, went to shimano curados 5 yrs ago, the 200BSF. my question is will these newer reels benefit from super tuning? Thanx. FD

Re: Super Tuned Shimano Corsair

Fishdoc,
Super Tuning will help any reel perform better and smoother. You won't gain as much distance with the newer reels as the older but you will notice a difference. I did some Curados for my son and he gained an average of 20' to his cast with a lot less effort. The biggest difference is the smoothness of the reel. Since you are sanding and polishing friction points, there is less drag on these parts and they work together better and smoother.

Dave,
I will have another Corsair CS400 by this weekend that I am going to clean and super tune if you are interested. I will let it go for $30 plus the cost of shipping. Let me know if interested and I will send you pictures of it.

Where are you located at or how could I get in touch with you. I have a couple Calcutta 200's and Bass Pro Extreme that I wouldn't mind having "Super Tuned".
