SHIMANO TWIN POWER XD FISHING REELS (LIGHT)

With just a quick glimpse at the Shimano Twin Power XD fishing reel, you know it won’t take an expert to realise they are looking at something truly special. The new styling is apparent from whichever angle you view it. There is an air of class and sophistication that isn’t lost in its space age, contemporary styling. A close look at the rotor sees a departure from all tradition, into the age of technologies where a humble fishing reel is imbued with a calibre of technology conceived in an era where man is on the verge of printing replacement human organs.

So where will you use this masterpiece of refined engineering? The answer is simple, wherever you can. With the option of purchasing a 1000 through to a 4000 in the small-medium category, you can specialise in the realms of ultra-light angling for Bream, Bass and Trout, through to hunting Whiting or even Salmon in a surfside gutter. Drift a gravel bed for big flathead or cast at racks with profound accuracy for everything that haunts such intricate structure.

Imbued with all the flagship technologies Shimano has to offer, you will also be more than impressed with the addition of G Free Body technology and Coreprotect. G Free Body technology places the spinning reels centre of gravity closer to the rod. By moving the centre of gravity closer to the anglers hand position, the G Free Body helps to reduce fatigue and enhance casting comfort.

Coreprotect as one of the standout features of the Shimano Twin power XD fishing reel provides water resistance without creating a heavy rotation feeling. Coreprotect utilizes a series of 12 different seals and a flat body joint with surface treatment.

In short, you will get market leading performance with market leading durability. A reel designed to venture into battles where others of the same class should simply avoid. A spinning reel that will endure countless battles in environments where precision tools buckle under the stress of the elements and a reel that will take you angling experience to a place you are yet to imagine. Shimano Twin Power XD Reels are priced accordingly but worth every cent and then some.
