ALDEBARAN MGL

Handle lightweight lures at greater distances with our specially designed shallow spool baitcast model.

The Aldebaran, a model dedicated to lightweight lures, is equipped with a specially designed shallow spool called the MGL Spool. By placing holes on the sides of the spool, weight and inertia are greatly reduced, allowing the brake force required to control the spool to be reduced. In addition to being able to handle lighter lures, long-distance casting performance has also been improved. Reacting to even the slightest weight change of a lure, it is almost suitable for bait finesse fishing as well.

HAGANE

HAGANE is a Shimano reel design concept created to withstand continual use and extreme abuse. HAGANE is an innovation with built-in toughness and durability that works alongside Shimano's precision engineering. HAGANE is for all anglers.


XSHIP_RL_BT
X SHIP

X SHIP provides improved gear durability. By supporting the pinion gear on both ends with bearings, the pinion gear maintains precise alignment with the drive gear. This increased support allows the gears to stay in the same position under the heaviest loads. X-Ship technology also eliminates the friction between the spool shaft and gear to further benefit anglers with enhanced casting performance and casting distance of lighter lures.


HAGANEBODY_RL_BT
HAGANE BODY

The HAGANE Body is a metal reel body with high rigidity. The body rigidity and impact resistance virtually eliminate body flexing on the reel while fighting a fish. The result transforms the angler's actions directly into cranking power,


MGLSPOO_RL_BT
MGL SPOO

The MagnumLite (MGL) Spool is designed with reducing the moment of inertia with the hole on side wall, and improves casting performance.


SILENTTUNE_RL_BT
SILENT TUNE

By applying slight pressure to the bearing holding the spool, SilentTune reduces the vibration of the bearing during high-speed rotation. This improves the quietness while casting and the rise of the spool rotation becomes even smoother.


SVSInfinity_RL_BT
SVS∞

SVS Infinity, provides easy-to-manage, consistent spool control and brake force. With brake weights that use inner friction against the raceway during the cast, SVS Infinity controls spool speed for precision casting. The external adjustment knob provides for quick, precise adjustments when anglers need to adjust to the conditions or when they switch baits.


CROSSCARBONDRAG_RL_BT
CROSS CARBON DRAG

The CROSS CARBON DRAG provides the smooth drag release and the durability.


S3D_RL_BT
S3D

S3D SPOOL leads to significantly reduced spool vibration. This creates an smooth feeling when casting.


SA-RB_RL_BT
S A-RB

S A-RB bearings are put through the same process as Shimano’s A-RB bearings but feature shields on both sides of the bearings. These shields reduce the possibility of salt or sand inhibiting the rotation of the bearing.


SUPERFREESPOOL_RL_BT
SUPER FREE SPOOL

SUPER FREE SPOOL reduces friction on the spool shaft during the cast and enhances casting performance.
