From an angling perspective; every individual who has owned and enjoyed using Shimano tackle has a reason to thank a Japanese visionary named Shozaburo Shimano; who in 1921 declared â€œI aim to make Shimano's products the best in Kansai; then the best in Japan; and finally the best in the world."" For over 80 years; Shimano has concentrated on precision engineering; one step at a time. Creating the most innovative products and processes you can hold in your hand today."

Review: I have always used Baitrunners but my others left me feeling like the fish was playing me rather than the other ... - Top notch reel. I have always used Baitrunners but my others left me feeling like the fish was playing me rather than the other way round if I got a 30lb+ carp hooked. I now use three of these as my night fishing set up and have been reliably informed by a friend of mine that these could be used for sea fishing up to a point.
Review: Typical Shimano pedigree,so well engineered. - Best baitrunner style reel i,ve ever used.Will never need another.

Top notch reel. I have always used Baitrunners but my others left me feeling like the fish was playing me rather than the other way round if I got a 30lb+ carp hooked. I now use three of these as my night fishing set up and have been reliably informed by a friend of mine that these could be used for sea fishing up to a point.
