Shimano

The Aero XR is Shimano's most technically advanced match and feeder reel. Packed with intriguing features such as anti-backlash mechanism, lightweight CI4 + body and rotor and advanced HAGANE gears for unmatched performance. If you are a lover of feeder and bolognese fishing, and want a high performance reel, the Aero XR is the solution. All reels pair perfectly with Shimano's best Aero X5, X7 and Pro feeder rods, offering perfect combos. With their impressive clutches and anti-reverse, they allow you to complete any catch, even of unexpected size when fishing with small diameters. The smaller 3000 size is perfect for float fishing and close range feeder fishing, the mid size 4000 is ideal for larger feeders or medium range fishing and the larger 5000 size is ideal for long distance fishing or heavier weights. With a G-Free CI4 + body and rotor all models are remarkably light, with the size 4000 weighing just 250g, a noticeable reduction over competing models of the same size. An added benefit you can feel is the precision of the light rotation, which is the result of the CI4 + rotor construction and HAGANE Gear, X-SHIP, Silent Drive technology. Other features include the best cold forged AR-C aluminum spools (including a spare spool) with a capacity reducer to load just the right amount of wire. The larger 5000 model has an additional reducer for use with the braid when fishing long distance feeder. Screw handle and a metal clip, which is very resistant, reinforce the pedigree of the XR. Visually, the "stealth" appearance of the Aero XR is striking and combined with advanced engineering technology cannot fail to inspire confidence in fishing use.

<p>If you take your squid fishing seriously, you&rsquo;ll already know the importance of using the correct reel when EGI fishing and they don&rsquo;t come much better than the Sephia BB. With an enviable history going back many years, this model has been tweaked to perfection to maximize your performance. Based on a compact 3000 sized body, the 5.3:1 gear ratio retrieves 78cm of line per handle turn, which is the optimum speed to prevent slack line when working your EGI lures aggressively. The elongated round EVA handle grip is comfortable and secure, even when wet, and when you feel the pressure of a take the Rapid Fire Drag can be quickly adjusted to provide the perfect pressure for the situation and size of squid. &#8203;At the heart of the lightweight Sephia BB is Shimano&rsquo;s HAGANE Gear, Micro Module II and X-SHIP combination. This produces efficient, smooth and very direct rotation, to cope with the stop/start action of EGI fishing, enabling lures to be worked aggressively without fear of failure. The inclusion of Long Stroke Spool and refined Silent Drive technology further enhances the fishing experience. Also contributing to the overall feel and balance of the reel is the G Free Body, which weighs only 225g and perfectly balances the most popular 2.5m EGI rods. The shallow spool is perfect for squid fishing and the aluminum AR-C spool design ensures line management is maximized when fishing aggressively. To cope with the harsh saltwater environment, Sephia BB uses Shimano&rsquo;s leading X-Protect (IPX-8) water protection for the body and also the line roller.&#8203; For the ultimate matching combination, the Sephia BB reel can be partnered with the Sephia BB rod, which has the same colored graphics.</p>
