Shimano Ultegra CI4 14000 XSC Fishing Reel

OverviewThe use of CI4+ delivers a substantial weight saving on the compact Ultegra body making rod speed easier to generate when distance casting. To further increase casting performance the Ultegra uses 2 Speed Slow Oscillation line lay and an AR-C spool fitted with the new Hi-Speed Drag mechanism. Cold Forged HAGANE gearing and X-Ship produce powerful winding performance and 5 Stainless A-RB bearings plus a Shimano Roller bearing deliver supreme smoothness. The reel is protected according to Shimano's latest innovation X-Protect is designed to protect the reel's inner parts against intrusion from water and dirt. The Parallel Body will help the angler to achieve long and accurate cast without unnecessary fatigue throughout the day. The new Ultegra CI4+ has a very compact body design which contributes to the feel of a compact and lightweight big pit reel. X Protect is 7 times more water resistant than Core protect because of the labyrinth structure. Because of this structure the water pressure need to be much higher than with Core protect to get in to the reel. Parallel Body: Perfect alignment of rod and reel to avoid line slapping during the cast, and thus increasing casting distance and accuracy.
