Shimano Trinidad A TN10A Reels

The Shimano Trinidad A TN10A Star Drag Reel is the smallest entry into the storied Trinidad line, but what it lacks in overall size, it more than makes up for in sheer power and technological prowess. The laundry list of patented Shimano technologies that the TN10A is bursting with is too long for a description paragraph, so I’ll focus on the best of the best. First off, Shimano’s X-Ship gearing provides a ball bearing on either side of the pinion gear – this will keep the pinion gear in precise alignment with the main gear even under extreme pressure giving you an incredibly smooth and powerful retrieve. The TN10A has packed an incredible 8 SA-RB ball bearings inside the tough one piece cold forged and machined aluminum frame, and a revolutionary Dartainium II woven carbon fiber drag system will put out 17# of the smoothest drag you’ve ever felt. Seriously, it’s kind of ridiculous. You’ll be targeting mostly intermediate bottom fish with your TN10A, including fluke, flounder, seabass, and blackfish – actually, the TN10A is one of the most popular blackfish reels here at J&H thanks to its size/power ratio. The entire reel is coated with E.I. corrosion resistant material, and you can pitch your baits with incredible ease thanks to an ultralight cold-forged aluminum Magnumlite spool that comes equipped with the Super Free system that ensures truly flawless spool spin when casting. The Shimano Trinidad A TN10A Star Drag Reel re-writes the book on small yet powerful reels, and you’ll be sure to love it as soon as you crank the handle for the first time.
