curado 200DHSV keeps slipping off of rod
Message:
I put my curado on a st croix premier rod. This is just a temp setup until I purchase a crucial for it. However, the reel keeps coming off the rod no matter how much I tighten it down. Anyone else have a problem like this. My old Mitchell bait caster would always stay on securely on the same rod. any recommendations

Is the thread stripped on the reel seat?

if the thread is slipping/stripped try wrapping a little electrical tape around it and it shoult build up the threads enough to keep it tight.
some times there is play under the reel plate and the seat on the rod. this can also be fixed with electrical tape. place a few strips length wise on the reel plate and use a razor to trim it.
good luck
