Rock-solid reliability meets advanced technology, now that the acclaimed Propulsion Line Management System has become standard even on the modestly-priced Shimano Spirex FG Spinning Reel. One of Shimano's best-selling S Concept reels, it's the hands-down favorite for walleye and smallmouth anglers who need a trouble-free reel with a dependable drag. Now smoother and longer-casting than ever! Features a graphite frame, sideplate and rotor; cold-forged aluminum spool; Varispeed Oscillation; Fluidrive II, Quick Fire II one-hand casting system; Dyna-Balance; and a ported handle shank. Now with 5 shielded stainless steel ball bearings for smooth performance all around.

Propulsion Line Mangement System: Five key components (spool lip, bail wire, roller, bail trip and cam) have been completely redesigned to reduce friction and promote uniformity of line movement. The result: more distance, less friction, fewer backlashes and wind knots, and greatly reduced line twist.

Dyna-Balance eliminates wobble on the retrieve by counter-balancing the rotor to enhance sensitivity and smoothness. 100% computer balanced!

Fluidrive gearing means that your reel was manufactured with the highest tolerances and utmost control in the gear-cutting process, to ensure a smooth, powerful retrieve every time.

Shimano S-Concept features ensure that your spinning reel will perform beyond expectations. Features vary by reel model, but may include a specially designed rotor, guard, roller clutch, and/or arm cam.
