The Reel
Inside the Shimano SLX 150 HG Baitcast Reel Hagane
Body, brass gearing delivers reliable cranking power and three SUS
bearings and one roller bearing means everything turns smoothly.
The reel incorporates a compact design, however the reel has the
same line capacity as Shimano’s standard 150 sized reels, fitting
150m of 20lb Power Pro. A longer 45mm Throw Handle working in
conjunction with two model options featuring gear ratios of 7.2:1
means that the slow and methodical lure worker and the angler who
likes a bit of speed are well covered by the new SLX. On top of
this, the Shimano SLX 150 HG Baitcast Reel‘s max
drag settings of 5kg provide some amazing stopping power should it
be needed!
VBS
VBS uses centrifugal force rather than magnets to aid controlling
the cast. The individual brake weights when turned on are forced
outward at the beginning of the cast when backlashes most often
occu, causing friction that reducxes the speed of the spool. Once
the spool speed begins to slow, the pressure lessens, allowing the
spool to continue spinning. The result is a much more consistent
spool speed that is easier t manage and takes advantage of the
reel’s maximumb casting distance.
Hagane Body
The Hagane Body is produced from high rigidity aluminium or
magnesium. This creates stiffness and impact resistance, while at
the same time eliminating flexing of the body. The result is a rock
solid housing and support of the moving internal gearing and
greater efficiency throughout the reel.
The Rod
Get into the action with the new Shimano Backbone Elite
Colt Sniper Rod. This versatile rod is lighter, stronger
and more powerful than its predecessors. It’s made of high quality
composite blanks with top-of-the-line bindings and guides. Best of
