Brand: Shimano

Located in: conventional/trolling reels

The new Torium has been built for speed. A 6.2:1 high speed retrieve and the increased free spool provides effortless castability and durability. The one-piece aluminum die cast frame eliminates any type of side-to-side flex. Coupled with Shimano's HEG - high efficiency gearing- and the ergonomically designed power handle, Torium can turn any head the right way and get them to the boat. Any doubts you had about your equipment will be put to rest when you fish with a Torium.

Comments about Shimano Shimano Torium High Speed Star Drag Reel:

The Torium 20 is my reel of choice for live bait and drifting dead sardines. With it's super fast retrieve, it's a kingfish or wahoo's worst enemy. Works well for bottom fishing too! Strong, smooth, fast and affordable. You can't go wrong with this reel!

Lead core line

Bottom Line:

Comments about Shimano Shimano Torium High Speed Star Drag Reel:

The fast retrieve makes it easy to get in 10+ colors of lead core. Best reel for this we have tried. The lack of a levelwind is not a problem.

Toriums Rock

Pros:

Durable, Good Value, High Quality

Best Uses:

And More, Bluefish, Cod, Striped Bass, Tuna

Comments about Shimano Shimano Torium High Speed Star Drag Reel:

""The Torium series by shimano has to be the best reels that I have ever used. You can really put the screws to the fish using these reels. With the high gear ratio this reel is even great for bottom fishing for cod. The Super Stopper II anti-reverse uses a one-way bearing that eliminates backplay.This provides you with instant hooksetting power. I reccomend getting at least two of these reels for your boat because you can use these for almost any type of fishing.""
