Shimano Tiagra Overhead Fishing Reel

With a hydrothermal drag and pre-lubricated drag washer impervious to salt water, Tiagra reels remain in perfect control of the biggest, fastest game fish on the planet. The single piece aircraft aluminium frame is machine cut so it won’t distort under pressure of a big fish, the heavy duty stainless steel two speed gears are continuously meshed, and at 89 dB, the ratchet is loud enough to wake the sleepiest crew.

The HAGANE Body is produced from highrigidity aluminium or magnesium. This creates stiffness and impact resistance, while at the same time eliminating flexing of the body. The result is a rocksolid housing and support for the moving internal gearing and greater efficiency throughout the reel.

ARB – The secret of longterm rotation performance is to prevent any form of rust, corrosion or oxidisation of the bearings, which can cause a reduction in the reels performance over time. Shimano ARB bearings are the answer to this and are fitted as standard on most Shimano freshwater reels and on all Shimano saltwater models.

CROSS CARBON DRAG – This carbon drag material provides a wider range of drag settings, along with the smoothest Shimano drag performance ever.
