Shimano Ultegra XTD Spinning Reel

The Shimano Ultegra XTD Spinning Reel delivers a compelling combination of precision engineering and brute strength, making it a reliable choice for dedicated surf anglers pursuing powerful species. This long-casting reel integrates Shimano's G-Free Body technology, shifting the reel's center of gravity closer to the rod for enhanced balance and reduced angler fatigue during extended periods of casting and retrieving. The Parallel Body design ensures the spool aligns at a perfect 90 degrees to the rod blank, optimizing line flow and minimizing line slap, while the Propulsion Line Management System features a specialized spool lip design that significantly improves line management, enabling greater casting distances and reducing wind knots.

The X-Ship system bolsters gear durability by supporting the pinion gear with bearings at both ends, ensuring smooth power transmission even under the heaviest loads of a battling fish or heavy retrieve. Anglers benefit from the Instant-Drag system, allowing for quick adjustments from free spool to a fighting drag setting with minimal turns of the front knob, providing instant control over hard-running fish. Super Slow Oscillation 5 ensures line lays perfectly on the spool, reducing friction on payout, and the inclusion of S A-RB bearings, which are shielded against salt and sand, contribute to the reel's smooth operation and longevity in harsh environments.
