Shimano always finds another way to improve your fishing experience. Introducing the new Shimano stradic, the product of continuous evolution. Now with Shimano's micro module gear II, you'll experience a rotational smoothness and power transfer never before achieved in a reel at this price point. Couple micro module gear II with silent drive, which fine-tunes internal components to the highest tolerances possible, and you'll agree with the new stradic approaches to flagship-level performance. Plus, Shimano's X protects water-repellent coating, and specially designed, water channeling, and labyrinth construction ensure a lifetime of top-level performance by stopping water penetration in key areas without adding a heavy rotational feel. Age Group: adult.
