Product Information
The Shimano Ultegra FD is a mid priced reel that brings top tier technology from the high end Shimano models. Its lightweight, durable CI4+ body houses HAGANE Gear, Micro Module II, X-SHIP, Silent Drive, INFINITYXROSS and INFINITYDRIVE.
X-Protect water resistance makes it suitable for light rock fishing, saltwater sea bass lure fishing and all freshwater applications. It handles high-resistance lures, and Shimano describes its design as adaptable across fishing situations.
The Long Stroke AR-C spool increases casting distance. Shimano’s ANTI-TWIST Fin helps prevent slack line gathering around the bail arm when jerking lures.
It comes in 2500, C3000, 4000 and C5000 XG sizes, while the C3000 model holds 210m of 0.25mm line, 130m of 0.30mm line or 100m of 0.35mm line.
