Shimano's legendary prowess in DC technology continues with the addition of the all-new Curado DC 200, an expansion to the tournament-proven Curado family of low-profile reels. The Curado DC 200 provides anglers up to 40% more line capacity for added versatility and performance using a wide range of baits and techniques, especially those looking to leverage heavier line, larger lures or maximize casting performance. The I-DC4 unit provides anglers with four distinct settings to control how much braking the DC technology applies to the spool during the cast for ultimate control while minimizing backlashes when long-bombing casts or fishing in windy conditions. Fish smarter and leverage Shimano's premium DC technology within the all-new Curado 200 DC.
Specifically engineered to be the lightest Shimano DC reel to date, the Metanium DC 70 A is shrouded in a one-piece CoreSolid magnesium frame, providing unparalleled durability and fatigue-free performance. An upgraded I-DC5 braking system allows anglers to fine-tune reel function based on line and lure combinations and fishing conditions, delivering improved accuracy and heightened casting control. Metanium DC 70 A features Shimano's innovative MGL Spool III technology, increasing casting performance by greatly reducing start-up inertia. HAGANE Body design provides strength and impact resistance while eliminating flex in the reel body, offering superior cranking power and efficiency when fighting fish. Shimano built the Metanium DC 70 A to accurately present a broad range of lures with precision and distance in any angling scenario.
The newest addition to Shimano's MagnumLite series of spinning reels, Miravel is a lightweight yet powerful reel with fierce versatility for the multi-species angler. Built utilizing Shimano's legendary carbon-infused CI4+ body to provide a lightweight platform and increased sensitivity, the Miravel also features Shimano's MagnumLite rotor to allow for an effortless startup and quick hooksets. Sporting a trifecta of Shimano premium reel technologies — cold-forged HAGANE Gear, SilentDrive and X-Ship — provides durable gearing with tighter tolerances for smoother reeling performance. Fish confidently with Miravel in hand, the newest member of the MagnumLite series is ready for the challenge.
The new Nasci series of spinning reels answers the call for anglers demanding smoothness and durability in multiple fishing applications. Suitable in both freshwater and inshore saltwater environments, Nasci spinning reels feature CoreProtect to increase durability and water resistance without creating an additional heavy rotational feeling. The Shimano cold-forged HAGANE Gear technology provides unparalleled gear durability compared to reels with diecast or machined gear construction. SilentDrive — the same technology found in Shimano's flagship lineup of reels — increases gear tolerances to a micron level to reduce unnecessary noise and vibration for increased reeling performance. Engineered to perform with Shimano quality and attention to detail, the newly redesigned series of Nasci spinning reels will perform when needed most.
Shimano developed the all-new Saragosa SW BFC for the dedicated billfish angler, those looking for the upper hand when a tournament check or world record is on the line. The counterpart to the tournament-proven Talica BFC in Shimano's Billfish Concept lineup, the Saragosa BFC reigns supreme when tossing live baits at billfish tailing down sea or cutting through bait balls on the surface. Saragosa SW BFC features an optimized drag for fighting sailfish and other billfish on light-line applications with a lower overall drag and less drag spike during fast runs compared to the battle-tested Saragosa SW A. Designed to perform when there's no other choice than to get the release, the Saragosa SW BFC boasts the market's fastest retrieval rate at 56 inches of line per turn to enable anglers to stay tight with a sport-fisher backing down or when fighting a greyhounding sailfish off the bow of a center console. To reduce play and deflection of the spool during hard-fought battles with stubborn fish, the Saragosa SW BFC incorporates Shimano's Rigid Support Drag for enhanced spool support to produce smoother and more consistent drag.
