Shimano Slx Bfs Baitcast Reel

The SLX BFS (available in both right- and left-handed versions) represents the rebirth of the popular SLX baitcaster, but now with greatly refined casting performance designed specifically to satisfy the highest demands of BFS (bait finesse system) fans, who demand a revolving drum reel capable of effectively casting the lightest lure weights available. A newly engineered ultra-light and super-shallow duralumin spool enables these very light weights to be cast using a low trajectory for enhanced accuracy, especially in tight corners. The efficiency of the FTB centrifugal magnetic braking system resists backlash and allows repeated long or short accurate casts to be performed smoothly. Other features, such as the lightweight but highly rigid HAGANE BODY and durable CARBON CROSS WASHER for smooth drag performance (with audible clicker) are also incorporated into the SLX BFS, making it perfect for finesse bait system (BFS) work in both salt and freshwater environments

FEATURES:

• Weight: 170g
• Shimano 10 year manufacturing warranty as a mark of quality
• New ultra-light and super-shallow duralumin spool allows you to cast light weights with a low trajectory for more accuracy, especially in tight corner
• FTB centrifugal magnetic braking system resists backlash and allows repeated long or short accurate casts to be performed smoothly
• X Ship delivers incredible gear durability by supporting the pinion gear on both ends, maintaining precise alignment with the drive gear
• Hagane Body - a metal reel body with high rigidity and impact resistance, virtually eliminating body flexing on the reel when you’re fighting a fish
• Finesse Tune Brake (FTB) improves casting performance by eliminating the brake unit from the spool
• Cross Carbon Drag for smooth drag release and durability
• S3D spool for significantly reduced spool vibration and a smooth feel when casting
• Shielded Anti-Ruse Bearings (S A-RB) with shields on both sides, reducing the chances of salt or sand gumming up the works
• Super free spool reduces friction on the spool shaft during casting for better casting performance
