Shimano Fishing SLX Baitcasting Reel

The new Shimano SLX is the replacement model for the CaenanA. With a significantly smaller body (22%), the SLX has a very ergonomic shape and is perfect for palming the reel in your hand, making it very comfortable to fish with whole day long. This Mid-Entry price level reel is a perfect all-round reel which can be used for all kinds of fishing and would be great for an anglers first baitcasting reel experience. It is available in three different gear ratios (normal gear 6,3:1 High Gear 7,2:1 and Extra Gear 8,2:1). The XG version even has a little longer handle (48mm instead of 45mm), giving it some more cranking power. The SLX has a very smooth maximum drag of 4,5kg, giving it enough strength and power to reel in your trophy fish.

Technology:

Hagane Body:
- The HAGANE Body is produced from highrigidity aluminium or magnesium. This creates stiffness and impact resistance, while at the same time eliminating flexing of the body. The result is a rocksolid housing and support for the moving internal gearing and greater efficiency throughout the reel.

S3D spool:
- Shimano´s S3D technology leads to significantly reduced spool vibration. By designing a balanced and uninform thin wall aluminium constructed spool, S3D creates an incredibily smooth feeling when casting and retrieving lures.

Super Free System:
- The Super Free bearing supported pinion gear system (SF) was designed to eliminate friction on the spool shaft during the cast. In standard baitcasting reels, when the clutch bar is pressed down, the pinion gear is freed and can actually drag on the spool shaft, creating friction and limiting the length of the cast. With SF, the pinion gear is supported by a ball bearing, and when the clutch is disengaged the pinion gear and spool shaft are kept in precise alignment. The result is zero friction on the spool shaft for increased freespool.
