Attention tournament anglers! Your new favorite casting reel is here! The Shimano SLX Low-Profile Casting Reel combines a compact body with a deep spool. The rigid aluminum frame provides a solid platform that virtually eliminates body flexing, allowing you to put the cranking power where you need it most! The hardened brass gears and four ball bearings work to create a smooth retrieval.

 

The SLX Casting Reel features Shimano's Variable Brake System (VBS) allows for consistent, long-distance casts as well as accurate short pitches. Outfitted with a long handle and power knobs, this baitcasting reel lets you stay comfortable all day long. The SLX Reel is 20% smaller than the Shimano Caenan reel, making it easier for you to palm. The Shimano SLX Low-Profile Casting Reel will have you increasing your casting distances and landing those trophy fish in no time!

 
  • Compact and rigid body
  • Long, comfortable handle
  • Power knobs
  • Hardened brass gear
  • Great for tournament anglers
  • HAGANE Body
    • The HAGANE Body is a metal reel body with high rigidity. The body stiffness and impact resistance virtually eliminates body flexing. The result transforms the angler's actions directly into cranking power. It's efficiency through strength.
  • VBS
    • VBS uses centrifugal force rather than magnets to aid in controlling the cast. When turned on, the individual brake weights are forced outward at the beginning of the cast when backlashes most often occur, causing friction that reduces the speed of the spool. Once the spool speed begins to slow, the pressure with which the brake weights contact the raceway lessens, allowing the spool to continue spinning.

          This reel is amazing it's the first reel I've bought my self, but I've used many other reels such as lews, shimano, Bass pro specials, etc. . This reel tops all of them even though it's $99 it's well worth it. I've had it for a few months and I've got big and little fish with it and it's dominated all of them.

          I've only used this for 3 days, but it is awesome so far. The braking system while casting works so well, I can really launch light weighted baits a long ways and not worry about a backlash. I have it spooled with 12lb mono and it spools and unspools really nice.
