Description

Description

Fishing reel from Shimano, suitable for your favorite hobby. It features 4 bearings that facilitate the movement of the central shaft. The reel drum rotates with a gear ratio of 5.2:1, which means that for one complete turn of the handle, the spool will make 5.2 rotations. The reel can hold 210m of 0.25mm thick fishing line, and if a thicker line is used, the capacity in length is reduced.


Features

  • Body (G-Free Body) 
  • Upgraded handle
  • Bearings for incredibly smooth and soft rotation
  • Shimano's Propulsion Line Management technology for excellent line or braid distribution, always combined with the AR-C spool and Varispeed II technology, elements that contribute to achieving long casts
  • Capacity: (0.25mm - 210m) (0.30mm - 130m) (0.35mm - 100m)

Free Body

With the Free Body design, the center of gravity of the mechanism has been shifted closer to the rod. By moving the center of gravity of the mechanism closer to the base of the rod, fatigue that occurs after many hours of fishing is reduced, while retrieval becomes even more comfortable.

Propulsion

New spool lip design of the mechanism. Through thousands of tests and computer simulations, the Japanese company designed a new lip on the spools of Shimano mechanisms named Propulsion. The Propulsion design offers even greater casting distances and prevents line or thread tangling during casting or retrieval.

AR-C Spool

The AR-C has a special design with a conical lip at the edge, allowing the line to unwind with less friction and in smaller coils for longer and more accurate casts. The AR-C spools reduce tangles and knots due to wind, especially when using braid, and are now available in almost all Shimano reels.

Varispeed

The excellent distribution of the line on the spool is the most essential feature for long and accurate casting. Shimano's revolutionary 'Varispeed' system consists of two gears. One is oval and the other is square. Only the highly specialized program created by Shimano can make the two gears work harmoniously. The result is the perfect parallel winding of the line.

Maintenance of Mechanism

  • Clean the mechanism after each fishing trip to remove dirt and saltwater residues.
  • Rinse with fresh water to prevent corrosion.
  • Use oil or grease on moving parts to reduce friction and check the fishing line for wear.
  • Check the functionality of the drag system and adjust the tension accordingly.
  • Store in a cool, dry place, protected from dust.
  • Loosen the drag tension when not in use for extended periods.

This way, you will keep the fishing reel in good condition, extend its lifespan, and ensure optimal performance.

    This review is about the size: 4000

    Almost daily fishing for spinning with an 18-pound line, the reel is amazing, paired with a lightweight rod 10-40, I have set it up for spinning, great value for money.

    Verified purchase

    Recent purchase to equip my spinning rod. It is a basic Shimano reel without sophisticated technologies. Its only advantage is the high gear (meaning the high rotation speed per handle turn, 6.2/1) and its acceptable weight of 260gr. I have used it a few times, so I cannot comment on its durability over time. However, so far it seems reliable.
