Shimano Stradic FM Reel

The new and versatile Stradic FM offers exceptional performance and delivers an impressive combination of strength, finesse and agility. With years of history and an impeccable reputation behind it, the next-generation Stradic is a reel that consistently delivers class-leading performance.

The Stradic fits perfectly in the middle of the Coresolid range and delivers a huge amount of advanced technology. It doesn't matter if you fish with different methods for different species, or if you are a niche specialist, there is always a model in the Stradic series for you. The Stradic is strong and powerful enough to make it easier to fish with heavy baits and fight big fish, yet "smooth" enough to provide precision when needed. The Stradic is a pleasure to use and will enhance your fishing experience in all freshwater and saltwater situations.

Stradic features some of SHIMANO's very best technologies, including HAGANE Gear, X-SHIP, Micro Module II, Silent Drive, INFINITYXROSS and INFINITYDRIVE. These advanced technologies are built into the lightweight HAGANE aluminum body and give it a "smoothness" you feel when cranking in under pressure. DURACROSS provides precise and extremely accurate control when drilling, even under extreme pressure. X-Protect means you can use this reel for everything from light fishing to tough sea bass fishing in saltwater environments, and all freshwater environments. The long throw AR-C spool and ANTI-TWIST for excellent line management make this Shimano favorite a real pleasure to fish with in many conditions.
