Shimano SLX DC 151 XG Baitcasting Reel

Shimano SLX DC 151 XG Baitcasting Reel

Shimano SLX DC XG Baitcaster Reel - Left Hand Wind. Built on the same compact, rigid and versatile platform as the popular SLX bait casting reel, with the addition of Shimano’s unique DC Braking technology, SLX DC puts no compromise casting performance within every anglers reach.

Hagane Body
The HAGANE Body is a metal reel body with high rigidity. The body stiffness and impact resistance virtually eliminates body flexing. The result transforms the angler's actions directly into cranking power. It's efficiency through strength.

IDC-4
Intelligent Digital Control braking system with an easy to use, 4 setting, externally adjustable brake dial.  This will allow anglers to fish a wide variety of lures, in any conditions, with minimal adjustment to the reel. 

Super Free Spool
SF was designed to eliminate friction on the spool shaft during the cast. In standard baitcasting reels,  when the clutch bar is pressed down, the pinion gear is freed and actually can drag on the spool shaft  creating friction that can limit the length of a cast. With SF the pinion gear is supported by a ball bearing  so that when the clutch is disengaged in preparation for a cast, the pinion gear and spool shaft are kept  in perfect alignment. The result is zero friction upon the spool shaft.

Shimano Stable Spool Design (S3D)
Shimano's S3D technology leads to significantly reduced spool vibration. By designing a balanced and uniform thin wall aluminium constructed spool, S3D creates an incredibly smooth feeling when casting and retrieving lures.
