The Shimano® Stradic® FK Spinning Reel incorporates the latest Shimano technology while retaining the high-performance features that Stradic reels have always been known for. This is a smooth, powerful, incredibly durable reel that will easily match up to any quarry in freshwater, as well as inshore saltwater. Its ultra-hard Hagane® cold forged drive gear combines with the X-Ship pinion gear-support concept to ensure perfect gear mesh at all times, for unflinchingly smooth control even under heavy loads. The sleek G-Free Hagane body prevents flex during the fight while maintaining superb balance, to keep hand fatigue out of the picture. 6 S A-RB shielded stainless steel ball bearings (plus 1 Super Stopper II Anti Reverse roller bearing) are backed by the high-efficiency Propulsion Line Management System. Additional performance features include vibration-eliminating Dyna-Balance®, efficiency increasing Fluidrive® II, line twist-reducing Power Roller II, SR-Concept, and friciton-reducing Aero Wrap® II. 5000 size is equipped with a power handle.
