(Yes I have a bunch
of Curados, and yes they have drum brakes, and yes they are good reels.
LOL) I just like the mag brakes because they are so much easier to
adjust.

Some day I hope to be good at this.

But Bob... if you have a bunch of Curados, you don't have to adjust
anything at all after the initial adjustment. I mean, I can switch from
spinnerbaits, crankbaits, and buzzbaits, to fishing (weighted) soft
plastics with the same reel. The trick this little tension knob on the
crank side; not the brakes.

I actually do not like the spool tension on the Curados. I have 200B and
200BSF reels. On ALL OF THEM its the most miniscule amount to adjust from
total free spool to way to tight for anything but launching heavy lead. I
can deal with it now, but I imagine for a beginner it would be pretty hard
to get that touch down right.
