  • Fluidrive II uses the successes of Fluidrive, but also uses a polishing process to increase tooth contact for increased efficiency.

  • Metal Series Metal frames keep moving parts in precise alignment for increased efficiency and durability.
  • Dyna-Balance similar to balancing a tire, we use counterbalancing techniques in the rotor to eliminate wobble during the retrieve.

  • Maintenance Port a sealed plug that can be removed using a screwdriver to easily lubricate the drivetrain without disassembling the reel.
  • S-Guard protects the body of the reel from impact damage.
  • S-Rotor is compact and lightweight to ensure a comfortable retrieve.
  • S-Arm Cam a protruding surface on the bail arm keeps slack line in contact with the line roller to reduce the chance of tangles and line cuts

    Comments about Shimano Stradic Spinning Reel - While Supplies Last!!:

    I decided to buy a nice reel for my wife. The salesman recommended the stradic. I used it a few times and had to get my own. I have 3 now. I was amazed at how much better a nicer reel could feel and work than what I'd been using. The best way I can describe it is it's simply very smooth.

    Comments about Shimano Stradic Spinning Reel - While Supplies Last!!:

    I only buy stradics now--many of the less expensive shimano reels "look" as good as a stradic, but they just dont preform as well. Resale value is amazing on these things. [...] A stadic will give you many years of trouble free service they are as tough as nails. Older models that have the stamp "made in Japan" are the best!!!
