Description
The Shimano Ultegra XTD Surf Reel is a high-performance big-pit spinning reel designed for serious surf casters and anglers who demand exceptional casting distance and power. Built in a sleek matte black finish, this reel features advanced X-Ship gear technology that supports the pinion gear to maintain smooth, heavy-load performance.
The slow oscillation system ensures precise and parallel line lay, drastically reducing friction for smoother, farther casts from the beach or pier. Equipped with an innovative instant drag system, anglers can swiftly transition from a free-spool mode to a locked drag configuration with just minimal turns of the knob.
The G-Free Body shifts the center of gravity closer to the fishing rod, helping to reduce arm fatigue during long sessions. Complete with an extra interchangeable spare spool and line reducers, this imported surf reel delivers professional-grade reliability and precision on every outing.
