Shimano Fishing Ultegra XSE Surfcasting Reel Silver 14000

Great reel light weight and smooth

very smouth, light for its size,very possitive that includes spare spool.screw in handle.only negative is that drag is not sealed

exellent reel and great price

Excellent quality at an affordable price.

Best for the price!

The new models now are better than previous i like them a lot and for the price you get better quality!

Excellent Spinning Reel

The Shimano Ultegra XSE is perhaps the finest spinning reel I own. I have it paired with a 12’ Shimano Speedmaster surf rod, and that combo means super-long casts. The reel is smooth as silk with precision drag adjustment. I highly recommend this reel.

Good and Cheap Reel

Value reel.............good buy..must buy

Great long cast spinner

I use this as my high surf distance reel. Paired with a high performance rod, it'll put a competent caster within range of anyone else on the beach. I'm a decent caster, but not even remotely elite, and I have gotten comments on the distance this reel can achieve. In terms of fish fighting ability, it has a nice drag and doesn't feel underpowered. It's a fishing reel, not a tournament caster, so I appreciate that it is actually able to put some pressure on a fish. Line lay is great, right out of the box.The only negative that I experienced was with the knob - I expect a little more at this price point. The handle itself is nice, but it is capped off by a cheap little plastic T-handle. Perhaps there was a reason to put on such a minimalist handle (casting inertia ... MoreI use this as my high surf distance reel.

Perhaps there was a reason to put on such a minimalist handle (casting inertia or something), but I replaced it with a machined aluminum knob and haven't had any issues with the bail closing mid-cast or anything. Was quite easy to swap the knob.

The best out there.

Did not disappoint. The reel is superb in every way. The service was second to none. The best tracking I've known. The best price out there. Can't praise it enough.

Was hoping for 2022 model "not" was hoping for shimano Japan. Received shimano Malaysia . Get what you pay for ! At least I have a loaner reel to mate up with a pos rod

Hmm get what you pay for don't expect saragosa quality from a Malaysia reel
