ARE
THE ‘CAN’T STOP FISHING’ CHOICE
![]() |
| All reels $99.99 USD! |
Anglers looking for a versatile,
easy-to-use, lightweight and durable baitcasting reel, Shimano new SLX reels
are the one more fish, one more cast, ‘Can’t Stop Fishing’ option. The series
is offered in six models in three different gear ratios, including the 6.3:1
SLX150 and left-hand retrieve SLX151, the high-speed SLX150HG and 151HG with
7.2:1 gears, and the SLX150XG and 151XG with extra high speed 8.2:1.
Designed around Shimano’s
HAGANE body concept - meaning a solid and precise aluminum frame, the SLX compact
body still allows for plenty of line capacity - up to 105 yards of 40-pound
test PowerPro braid. Shimano’ proven six-spin style Variable Brake System
provides spool and casting control, while the sideplate is attached to prevent
it from falling off when adjustments are needed with lures and wind condition
changes. Each comes with a ‘Curado K type’ long handle with power handle knobs.
Even with the aluminum frame and durable brass gears, each reel weighs in at a
light 6.9-ounces.
