Shimano Bantam Baitcast Reel

The Bantam reel 40 years ago ignited a legacy of durable and high-performance casting reels. The all-new Bantam continues this tradition, merging cutting-edge Shimano JDM design and technology to redefine the standard for strength and performance in low-profile baitcaster reels. With its innovative Core Solid Body design, integrating the B-side, frame, and level wind guard into a single aluminum piece, the Bantam delivers unmatched strength. This full aluminum construction offers anglers the solid feel of a round casting reel with the ergonomic comfort of a low-profile design. The introduction of the new MGL III spool reduces spool inertia, significantly enhancing casting distance. Moreover, refining the spool to be larger and narrower boosts the efficiency of the SVS Infinity casting control. Internally, the Bantam pioneers Shimano's Infinity Drive reel technology for unparalleled durability in low-profile baitcasters. Micro Module gearing ensures precise gear alignment and smoother winding. Backed by Shimano's legendary Cross Carbon Drag system, the Bantam guarantees superior drag pressure and performance without compromising on drag inertia.
