Product Information
Aero Wrap II with two-speed oscillation gives the Shimano Baitrunner XT RB Reel a faultless line lay and increases casting performance. It is a freespool reel designed with carp fishing in mind, with the XT-RB replacing Shimano’s earlier RA version.
Its hybrid aluminium body is stronger and lighter than the previous RA model, while the matt black and titanium silver finish gives the updated reel its new look. Four shielded stainless-steel bearings and one roller bearing sit inside the reel.
It comes in 6000, 8000 and 10000 sizes. A double handle, body maintenance port and cold-forged aluminium spool are fitted, and each reel includes one additional cold-forged aluminium spool.
