I'm not saying the Citica is a bad reel in any way. I was just pointing out that no matter what the lighter spool will outperform the heavier spool. It is just simple physics. Lower weight = less force required to get the spool moving. This means that you can use the Curado to cast lighter lures with less effort. You also get some extra features on the Curado like more bearings, bigger handle paddles, Titanium line guide insert (super slick and durable with braided lines) and an aluminum drag star. This makes for a nicer and more refined reel.
