Shimano Castaic Series Low Profile Baitcasting Reels
Castaic reels set the standard in baitcasting performance, with specialized features like Instagage II for pitching and flipping.
Features: • A-RB (Anti-Rust Bearings) are specially treated stainless steel ball bearings that are at least 10 times more corrosion resistant than standard stainless steel ball bearings.
• Lo-Mass Drilled Spool System Reducing the weight of the spool by drilling lowers start-up inertia for more manageable casts. • Rubber Handle Grip is comfortable and soft to the touch. • Instagage II clutch for flipping and pitching allows the angler to put the reel in gear without having to turn the handle and provides excellent access to the spool for line control. • Super Free (SF) bearing supported pinion gear system eliminates friction between the pinion gear and spool shaft for increased freespool. • Metal Series Metal frames keep moving parts in precise alignment for increased efficiency and durability. • Variable Brake System (VBS) uses centrifugal force rather than magnets to aid in controlling the cast for increased distance and adjustability. • Turn-Key Access Sideplate flip up the easy to use turn-key and rotate it to remove the sideplate to adjust the VBS brake weights. • Clicking Drag Adjustment reduces the chance of the drag backing off at light settings while providing the angler a reference point to how much drag they add or reduce by turning the star. • Graphite Sideplates • Aluminum Frame • Aluminum Spool |
